I’ve got the weirdest problem, and I’m worried… you’ll see why.
OK, I’m running REALStudio 2011r3. I’m sure at this point most of you will not read this - fine. Maybe I’m the last person to continue to use it. But please read on, if there’s anything you know that would help. Please do not say “start using Xojo”, that isn’t a practical solution.
Here’s the issue. I have 12 major applications I sell. For the past 8 years (since RS2011r3 came out) I’ve been kicking out new versions, both Mac and Windows. Everything has run really well, no problems at all. I build them all at one time and make them available for updating.
I compile them all on a Mac, running OSX 10.6, even the Windows builds. Again, remember that this has worked for 8 years, doing it this way.
ALL OF A SUDDEN: The latest builds I put, the Windows versions, the Timers never fire. This is on the compiled binaries. And this is with every application. They share the same corporate code framework, but the Timers are mostly not in the shared framework.
There has been no Plugin changes or anything. I run the Windows binaries on a Win7 computer, but it happens on all my computers. I even have had a client report this problem, and I’m certain I’m going to start hearing many more reports.
I cleared the Caches folder, rebooted the Mac, tried a couple Windows compiles, it doesn’t matter, no timer ever fires.
Any ideas what this could be???
