Dear Steema Team,

We hit a "division by zero" error in TeeChartPro 8.02 VCL / CodeGear™ C++Builder® 2007 Version 11.0.2902.10471 in the following code:

Code: Select all

   FChartSeries = new TChartSeries(Chart1);
   FChartSeries->ParentChart = Chart1;
   FChartSeries->AddXY(1, 1.0, "", clTeeColor);
   FChartSeries->AddXY(2, 2.0, "", clTeeColor);
   FChartSeries->AddXY(4, 3.0, "", clTeeColor);

   //ChangeSeriesType(FChartSeries, __classid(TLineSeries)); // workaround
   ChangeSeriesType(FChartSeries, __classid(TBarSeries));

The error comes up during next Paint(). Please let me know when this bug is resolved.

Thanks,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

Thanks for reporting. I could reproduce the issue here and added it (TV52013006) to our defect list as a high priority item to be fixed for next releases.

I recommend you to be aware at this forum or our RSS feed for new release announcements and what's been fixed on them.

BTW: Code below works fine for me here using same TeeChart version and IDE than you. I also added Series.hpp unit in the form's header and a pragma link in the form's code.

Code: Select all

void __fastcall TForm1::FormCreate(TObject *Sender)
{
	TChartSeries *FChartSeries = new TChartSeries(Chart1);
	FChartSeries->ParentChart = Chart1;
	FChartSeries->AddXY(1, 1.0, "", clTeeColor);
	FChartSeries->AddXY(2, 2.0, "", clTeeColor);
	FChartSeries->AddXY(4, 3.0, "", clTeeColor);

	//ChangeSeriesType(FChartSeries, __classid(TLineSeries)); // workaround
	ChangeSeriesType(FChartSeries, __classid(TBarSeries));
}

Hi Narcis,

Thanks for you fast reply. The bit funny thing is that the bug seems to go away once you provide any (even empty) handler for TForm::OnCreate event.

Code: Select all

void __fastcall TMainForm::FormCreate(TObject *Sender)
{
   // nothing
}

void __fastcall TMainForm::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
   FChartSeries = new TChartSeries(Chart1);
   FChartSeries->ParentChart = Chart1;
   FChartSeries->AddXY(1, 1.0, "", clTeeColor);
   FChartSeries->AddXY(2, 2.0, "", clTeeColor);
   FChartSeries->AddXY(4, 3.0, "", clTeeColor);

   ChangeSeriesType(FChartSeries, __classid(TBarSeries));
}

Isn't is strange? Happy debugging

Best Regards,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

Thanks for the info.

Yes, it's quite strange. It's even more strange that I can't reproduce the issue here anymore without having made any change in TeeChart sources. I must be missing something. Anyway, I've updated the information in the bug list to be reviewed.

Hi Manfred,

Thanks for your collaboration again. Yesterday I debugged the problem using TeeChart sources and the error already showed me the exact line code where it was happening. I tried a few quick possible fixes but were not acceptable because they broke other things.

Any news?

Hi Manfred,

Not yet. I recommend you to be aware at this forum or subscribe to our RSS feed for new release announcements and what has been fixed on them.

Dear Narcís,

RSS feed still keeps silence

Could you please let me know where we stand? This bug starts getting on the nerves of our customers.

Thanks,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

This issue was fixed for v8.03, which is currently in prerelease mode. A few issues need to be ironed prior to the final release. In the meantime I've sent you current version installer where the bug should be already fixed.

Posted: **Thu Sep 04, 2008 6:51 am**

Hi Narcís,

Thank you for a quick reply. The link that you gave me is a Delphi version of TeeChartPro, .hpp-files missing. It refuses to install on C++ Builder 2007 11.0.2902.10471 (December update). Could you please send me another one?

Thanks in advance,
Manfred

P.S: just curious to know, are you going to support Delphi/C++Builder 2009 Tiburon in version 8.03?

This is installer should work for both Delphi and C++ Builder 2007 as RAD Studio 2007 is usually shipped with both personalities only Delphi packages are necessary. Do you only have C++ Builder personality installed? Which are the exact error messages you get?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, we are working on this.

Hi Narcís,

I really appreciate the speed of your replies. You were right, it was just a wrong installation on my travelling laptop. Finally I managed to install TeeChartPro 8.03 prerelease, but unfortunately hit another (even more severe) bug which our customer wouldn't like for sure.

I used the same test application as in my first post, and just activated all 4 anchors for the TChart component to make in resizable. Unfortunately the whole application hangs with 100% CPU load when you try to reduce its size less than a certain amount. However it works well with an empty chart (no series).

Is it one of those glitches you wanted to iron out before final release? I can send you my code if needed.

Take Care,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

No, I don't remember this issue. Yes please, could you send a simple example project we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here?

You can either post your files at news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments newsgroup or at our upload page.

Thanks in advance.

Uploaded TeeTest803pre.zip via upload page. Application resizes nicely unless you push "Add Series" button. Please inform me weather you could reproduce a bug.
