5.12 Page count explodes

I've just converted from 5.10 to 5.12 and now when using LoadFromFile I'm getting 1,242,437 pages created in TWPToolsEditor.

It was working 5.10

I'm creating the editor in a DLL, here is my code:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

library WCEditor;

uses
SysUtils, Controls,
Forms, WPRTEDefs,
Classes,
wpDefEditor;

var
DocEditor : TWPToolsEditor;

function ShowPreview(AHandle: THandle; ACaption, FileName: pchar; GetVal, SetVal: pointer): Longint; stdcall;
begin
Application.Handle := AHandle;
if DocEditor = nil then
DocEditor := TWPToolsEditor.Create(nil);
with DocEditor do begin
Caption := ACaption;
WPRichText.LoadFromFile(FileName, true);
WPRichText.ClickableCodes := [wpobjMergeField];
ShowModal;
Application.Handle := 0;
end;
end;

exports
ShowPreview;

begin
end.

While debugging, the file load up quickly but on the ShowModal command it pauses and creates the 1mil+ pages.

Can someone give me an idea of where to start looking?

Thanks!

Julian,

I'm using the DLL in my app only and am the only developer. It's a large app so I'm breaking functionality out in DLL's.

PageWidth = 15840
PageHeight = 12240

Pages look properly sized when viewing. First page contains the proper text, all other pages are blank but include the footer if one has been defined.

Loading the first RTF usually works fine, when I load the second RTF that's usually when the problems start. I've traced it down to:

in:
WPRTEDefs / TWPRTFdatablock.getpagecount:

FPageList.Count returns 671 which then becomes the page count

I still need your help!

Julian,

I just compiled mini.exe and did a file / load with one of my test rtf documents. It also produces many pages (complete with footers) every time I load the file.

I ran the same rtf using WPT5TBXDemo and could not get it to produce the same results..

Strange..

I opened the RTF in ms word and saved it. Loaded into mini.exe and now I only see one page.

You want the RTF? it's only 4k (course the ms word one is twice that..)

Mike

I edited the footer specification out of test.rtf and things are back to normal.

would you suggest a back rev to 5.10 at this point?

Disabling HighSpeedReformat did the trick

Thanks!

Julian,

I have built and forwarded you Mini.exe / source / map, along with several sample rtf files that show the issue everytime (for me).

It will be interesting to find out what the problem is. I have uninstalled and totally re-installed WPTools 5.12 just to make sure it was nothing I introduced.

Good Luck!

Mike
