Thanks, Jon. Appreciate your input.

The 64 bit framework is handling all that differently so the order you relied on before is now different. So some object is calling on or relying on some other object that is already closed.

It has likely always been there but Xojo and the 32 bit framework was a little more forgiving. >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> >>> On May 20, 2017, at 11:00 AM, Paul Young <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> I am using a MacBook Pro running macOS Sierra Version 10.12.4 to upgrade my first six 32-bits Mac apps to 64-bits. >>> >>> Each of the six apps worked fine when compiled for 32-bits. >>> >>> Because my Mac Xojo license expired late last year, I used Xojo 2017 Release 1.1 to test the apps in the IDE for 64-bits and then compiled them for 64-bits using Xojo 2016 Release 3. >>> >>> Launching each app twenty times, I recorded an exception upon close 20% to 50% of the time. >>> >>> The Console log shows: “Service exited dur to signal: Segmentation fault: 11 sent by exc handler (0). >>> >>> Can someone tell me in simple English what this means? >>> >>> Thanks in advance. >>> >>> Paul Young, CSoM _______________________________________________ Xojo forum: https://forum.xojo.com/
