[REBOL] Re: crash: root block overflow - set-browser-path, browse
From: antonr::iinet::net::au at: 12-Nov-2003 12:38
Ok, it happens when I use set-browser-path and
browse to call a file. Of course. Here's some
example code:
exec: func [string][set-browser-path probe string browse ""]
exec form to-local-file rebol/options/boot ; keep doing this line until...
; ** CRASH (Should not happen) - Root block overflow [OK]
exec: func [cmd args][set-browser-path probe cmd browse probe args]
exec form to-local-file rebol/options/boot "" ; keep doing this line
until...
; ** CRASH (Should not happen) - Root block overflow [OK]
I don't think I am the first to discover this though.
But wait! When I do each command separately (not in a function)
then it works really well:
set-browser-path form to-local-file rebol/options/boot
browse "" ; keep doing this line...
; no problem, in fact I can complete this:
repeat n 1000 [browse "-c"] ; takes a while though :) 100 is quicker.
