Omni Systems, Inc. Mif2Go User's Guide, Version 55
> D Technical support for Mif2Go > D.3 How to request help > D.3.1 If the problem involves a crash
If you are getting a Windows error message such as the following:
DCL NT console driver has encountered a problem and needs to close.
This means your Mif2Go conversion caused a crash.If the crash happens when Mif2Go is converting a FrameMaker index, see §5.5 Converting FrameMaker-generated files; you might need to add character formats to page numbers. Otherwise, try the following debugging options:
; or Yes (prevent deallocation of name memory)
; NoMemDel = No (default) or Yes (prevent deallocation of all memory)
First set NoNameDel=Yes
.
If the conversion still causes a crash, try setting NoMemDel=Yes
.
Your conversion might run to completion with one or the other of these
options; in any event, document the result, so Omni Systems programmers
can investigate.
Note:
When you set either of these options to Yes
,
memory deallocation is prevented only while dcl.exe
is running; at the end of that (usually brief) process, all memory used
by Mif2Go is always freed; no memory leaks occur.
Next: Scope the problem.
