Peter, I have just de-installed NewView 2.5.0 and the problem with PMVIIEW windows not completely closing has disappeared. I can now delete empty directories after closing PMVIEW without having to kill the process first. So, it looks like NewView 2.5.0 still has the problem of interfering with closing processes.
Thanks for the tip about NewView. The tip just needs to be updated to include NewView 2.5.0 as also being a problem. |

Peter, let me first say that PMVIEW is an excellent product that for me is a 'must-have'. Thanks for a great product.
I believe I am also seeing a side affect of this behavior where PMVIEW does not *completely* close. When I am processing images and empty a directory, I would like to delete that directory. But, I can not remove the directory and get SYS0016 (the directory is in use). I have closed all PMVIEW windows (did not have any file-open windows open, just a PMVIEW window). PMVIEW does not appear in task-list, but if I go into WATCHCAT, the PMVIEW process is still active. Closing the PMVIEW window (even with the X button) does not completely close PMVIEW. In order to gain access to the directory so it can be deleted, I must *kill* PMVIEW with WATCHCAT so the process goes away and releases control of the directory. At least I have finally found out what process was not releasing control of the directory and can now work around it, but this gets to be a little irritating. You mentioned that most people want PMVIEW to behave this way so the startup time is reduced. Would it be possible to have an option for how to close PMVIEW? Either fully or partially. For me fully closing PMVIEW when the window is closed is preferrable. I have cleaned the OS/2 INI file and the results are the same. I am running NewView 2.5. Thanks for any help you can provide. |
