As per ​eFTE/2 ticket #44 I just tried aspell, as installed a few days ago via ANPM.

Issuing the command "aspell -c file.htm" it just bombs with

Error: html: dlopen returned "dlopen rc=2 extra=C:\USR\LIB\ASPELL-0.60\SGML-FILTER.SO".

with any HTML file.

That ".so" file never made it to my system, but at least the error mentions html :/

Whatever else you need to know, just ask. If there's something wrong with this report, please say so and give pointers to any how-to with the right information.

TIA, AFD.

Opening this ticket to track the issue.

I've started working on a REXX-callable interface to CUPS (rexxcups, currently hosted in ecups/trunk/rexxlib).

Calling a simple function (CupsGetQueues?) which works fine in a standalone test exe causes an exception when called via REXX.

GCC1.DLL 0001:000000e3

This may be a result of running out of stack space.

The same general error occurs when building with gcc 4.5.2 or 4.9.2, or linking against cups.dll (RPM) or cups20.dll (Paul).

One possible approach may be to start a new thread (with a large stack) when calling any CUPS function?

It seems that at least pthread_detach and pthread_kill use DosEnterCritSec. This is absolutely not necessary there, and more over, it's very dangerous as it's a frequent cause of hard system deadlocks.
