SRT Issue with v14.3.03 on Win10 Pro (64-bit)

Post by dtaylor » Sun Sep 18, 2016 7:46 am

Since updating to Macro Scheduler to v14.3.03, I'm having a strange issue with subroutines. I am running Windows 10 Pro (64-bit).

When I run the code below, the MAIN Box 2 message is never displayed.
Instead, MAIN Box 1 is displayed followed by SUB Box and then back to MAIN Box 1. This continues as an endless loop.

It appears that the script returns to the line before the Gosub instead returning to the line following the Gosub.

Code: Select all

MessageModal>MAIN Box 1
GoSub>testsub
MessageModal>MAIN Box 2 (NEVER EXECUTES!)
Exit>0

SRT>testsub
  MessageModal>SUB Box
END>testsub

hi,

i ve tested over here with version 14.2.09

and it works perfect, it shows the "MessageModal>MAIN Box 2 (NEVER EXECUTES!)"
as it should do.

Think Marcus must take a look, this is strange.

kind regards
Djek

I confirm the same anomaly occurring here.
All my scripts running for years without a glitch suddenly fail on v14.3.03.

@dtaylor, running debugger step by step, you'll see the weird unexpected behavior after exiting your subroutine testsub.

Hi Dtaylor,
The "latest version", 14.3.02, appears to resolve the above-mentioned anomaly.

@armsys
I think you meant the latest "v14.3.04" solves the issue, but you are also right that the issue was not present in the previous version 14.3.02. :D

@Marcus
Thanks for the quick fix!

Is there a way to download previous licensed versions? I downloaded and installed the 14.3.03 version on Friday (which broke the subroutine functionality) and was unable to write/test scripts all week-end until you posted the fix update on Monday.
