Juffed hangs after search and save

[estellnb]

by executing the following commands I have a reproducible WPS-hang which can only be resolved by terminating JuffEd (eCs 2.2):

• [f:\apps\juffed]juffed.exe h:InstallUpdate.html
• change Charset to UTF-8
• search for "usbhcd"; double click on the result
• change something
• save the results

just opening a document; setting the charset to utf-8 and saving does not hang juffed; CPU usage remains at 100% when the hang occurs.

[estellnb]

well it hangs on any save (as soon as there are some changes).

Oops; LIBPATH was not set correctly. Seems as the program does a chdir and then attempts a DosLoadMule whereby the dlls are then no more on path. Works with correct LIBPATH; dll-loading is however an error it should probably check for as I believe.

[estellnb]

You have distributed that as a .wpi. I would suggest the rexx-warpin script to set LIBPATH and DPATH as some options are not even available without DATAPATH set to the juffed directory as f.i. charset selection.

Sometimes the "select charset" feature is here; sometimes it is not. strange; has nothing to do with dpath; however this way I can not use this editor because its system default setting does not default to UTF-8. Disabling all other charsets in settings does not help either. Too bad; would have been a nice editor! System default should be UTF-8 on eCs 2.2, shouldn´t it?

[estellnb]

Well; that it loads with System default charsets if all other charsets but UTF-8 are disabled is likely a bug of juffed itself; will additionally report that to the primary developer. However eCs should set the system default charset correctly; I guess; and then there is the error of the disappearing View->Select Charset menu entry.

I close this ticket as its silence for 6 years.
