Re: Rational Developer for Power closes unexpectedly -- WDSCI-L

Happens to me as well, although definitely not regularly. The last time it
happened I got the impression (dunno why) that it was due to includes. I
have several dozen includes that include other includes which may include
the original one again, with conditional directives so that they're not
included twice. I had the thought that it was due to a structure in a
structure in a structure in a structure... The outline *seems* to be able
to handle these structures (unsure to how many levels) but the content
assist sure does not! It's like they don't even exist.

We haven't been able to determine the root cause, but the following is

the issue. Something is returning a Null event during the Verify or Outline
process.
-- It happens (in my case) with a /COPY book. I've done some whittling
down of the code to isolate it, but haven't cornered it. The /COPY book
causing it has 28,000 + lines of code, not by our design (by vendor) which
is why it's not easy to zero in on.

That's about all I can offer at this time.

If you note it crashes outside of doing either the Verify or Outline

Ken, thank you for the info

In my case it would be the outline refresh.

Do you have any insight as to how the source
member triggers the problem, so I can do
something to avoid this disruption ?
