It's known problem. I tested once on Win2000 that this happens since
very begin (RHIDE fails to load file DJGPP environment variable points
to). I don't know why this happens. Don't have Win2000 near me now
and I'm not planing to use it in near future.
Some thoughts:
(wild guess) Maybe this is some problem with DJGPP port of
TurboVision. In last months I have seen that programs compiled with
gcc-3.0 development versions more often crashes after memory related
problems. Some time ago I suceeded to build rhtvision-1.10 with gcc-3.0
development version and demo examples crashes when closing opstream
(very similar to behaviour of my own program, they crashes when destroying
std::cout, std::cerr at exit). Of course this doesn't prove we have such
bug I said as I may have been done something wrong when rewrote
implementation of TVision stream classes to be compatible with
libstdc++-v3
In both cases I had similar iostream related crashes in my own programs,
I was not able to detect these memory related problems with simple
memory tracking tool (I used Fortify)
