“OpenForm” primitive Crashes Server when printing statements
UNILYNX
8-7-18
We have a customers using a fully customised Credit Management Module.

Since they upgraded to version 8, the Statement Routine started behaving erratically. It works for a while and then it stops again.

Our Developers traced the problem to a default print function called “OpenForm”.

In short, the Routine will run but as soon as it calls this print function it crashes the Server.

The primitive is used to print the required data on a form.

Our developers can’t change how this works within HansaWorld as the primitive is part of the C code.

The same primitive is used to print Invoices, and Invoices are printing as expected with no crashes.


Have any of the functions regarding the “OpenForm” primitive changed after version 8 release?
