Hello All
This evening I'm having a promlem trying to run a program called !Transient.
It is booted up via Netfetch tasks. It ran this morning but not this
evening and gives the error; Transient requires toolbox 1.71 to run.
The only program I have run today out of the ordinary is J.Kortink's
Translator (2006).
The problem will occur if you have put newer versions of the toolbox
modules (i.e. ROL's) in to !System, but then don't explicitly load them
during !Boot.
What happens is you run some application ('A') which is satisfied by the
earlier version of toolbox in ROM (say 1.70), but then attempt to run
another application ('B') which needs a later version (say 1.71). As
1.70 is already being used by 'A', 'B' can't load the newer one and fails.
If you run 'B' before 'A', the later toolbox module 1.71 is loaded and
'B' is happy, when 'A' is run the module is later than what it needs, so
it is ok too.
The solution is to include an Obey file in !Boot PreDesk, so it is run
before any application which may use the toolbox modules, which loads
the latest version of each in to the module area. Then you wont get a
problem is 'A' is run before 'B'.
To ensure that the latest version is always loaded, even if you update
the current modules in system, the RMEnsure lines for each toolbox
module should contain a very high version number, such as 999.99 or similar.
Cheers
