Re: How to move a BlackBox document view to the second monit
I wrote a very small procedure to get any window "floating" independent of the main BlackBox window. Maybe that also helps? PROCEDURE DecoupleChildWindow*; (* Decouples the currently focussed child window from the Hostwindows.main, such that it can float freely over the desktop *) VAR win:...

Re: BlackBox as a Windows service?
Hi Josef,
Almost 4 year late , but I have experience running blackbox as a Windows Service using nssm.exe (The "non-sucking service manager"). Works great. Only disadvantage is that you cannot have any interaction via Dialogs or so,..
Kind regards,
Mathieu.

Re: Scrolling
Nice to learn that my code of 15 years back is also used by others :geek: I still check out this forum and the Component Pascal Collection regularly for nice improvements to BlackBox. Unfortunately,I didn't have (make :oops: ) much time to make my own programs generic and share them with the communi...

Re: Stack Commit Size, Stack Reserve Size
Good point.
The more comments, the better, I would say. I tend to put a lot of comments in my source code, since typically a few years down the line, you have a hard time understanding your own "smart" code

Re: Stack Commit Size, Stack Reserve Size
There is no run-time problem. The stack overflow problem only occurs when trying to load (internalize) a big model. Building the big model, running it and also saving (externalizing) it are no problem. Maybe it's indeed the 32-bit limit. There are quite some cyclic data structures in the defined obj...

Re: Stack Commit Size, Stack Reserve Size
Thanks for the suggestion, but the large arrays that I use are already in a dynamic form and take the actual size. I always try to minimize the allocation of new objects. There is quite a deep recursion, though. There are typically a lot of smaller arrays in my models, not several large ones. For ex...

Re: Stack Commit Size, Stack Reserve Size
Hi Ivan, A bit hard to give an example module. To have an idea about what our models look like have a quick look at this video: https://www.mobatec.nl/web/videos/Mobatec_Modeller.webm What we store is a mixture of a lot of information in a "Mobatec Modeller Model": Graphical, mathematical,...

Hi Josef,Josef Templ wrote: The only other idea that I currently have is to avoid the large stack by allocating large data structures on the heap.
This would give you much more memory but it is of course a change in your model loader.
Any hints on how to do this?
