Bug with sleep mode (rainmeter 1.0)

[molk]

If you can make it to crash again could you dump the crashed process to file and upload it to some place from where I can download it?

Hi Rainy. I am disturbed by this problem for weeks.Justnow i dumped the file when it crashed.

After a long time of trying , i have uploaded the file to googlecode.Following is the URL
http://code.google.com/p/dmpfileofrainmeter/downloads/list

BTW I'm using Vista Home Basic 32bit and Rainmeter is the latest version(1.1 r181 beta), but this bug not only exist in this version but also the Previous versions(from 0.14 on).

Many thanks for your attention!

Can you give a direct download link? I have no idea how to download anything from that site.

DOES this URL work?

I got it now. The crash happens in the event loop when the mouse timer is handled. Unfortunately that doesn't tell anything about the reason why it crashes. Are you able to reproduce this always when you wake the computer up from sleep? Does it happen only with certain skins or any of them? Does it happen if you don't have any skins enabled?

I've noticed that it only crashes for me (when returning from sleep/locked screen) if iTunes was left running in my system tray. I've only used the Enigma skin, so I'm not sure if it's skin-dependent or not.

I'm having a similar problem but only when waking from hibernation

sleep mode works fine but when my laptop hibernates, rainmeter dies silently on the wake up

[KiRe]

i'm using a personalized skin (based off the enigma itunes) and it basically happens every time that i leave that skin on when i put my laptop to sleep before i go to bed. If i am recalling correctly, it doesn't crash when the computer is asleep for a short(er) periods of time but I don't know at what point it starts crashing tho.

EDIT: I've mentioned all this before but never explicitly wrote it out in one place so here goes...

When rainmeter is running without the itunes skin, it does not seem to crash. I say this because i haven't tried every possibility and i simply can't remember =/ When rainmeter is running my itunes skin, regardless of what is running in the background, it crashes. Except, I don't know if it crashes if itunes is not running in the background. Now, keeping all that in mind...

When I bring the computer out of sleep when i wake up from a night's sleep, it crashes. If it has been asleep for a a few hours or less, doesn't crash. But i don't know when the cut off is for it crashing.

Now the following is me speculating:

I got it now. The crash happens in the event loop when the mouse timer is handled. Unfortunately that doesn't tell anything about the reason why it crashes.

I don't use any thing that depends on how long the mouse has been at a certain location, both in the itunes skin or in other skins. So if i understand correctly, the crash is caused by a mouse timer which is called by the itunes plugin (except there is no mouse timer called in the first place) add in the fact that, at least to me, this is a time dependent issue so the "problem" compounds on itself until it causes rainmeter to crash... so isn't that where the problem stems from? It is a matter of figuring out where the itunes calls a mouse timer?

Problem with my reasoning would be... where does the sleep/hibernate come into this?

I'm sorry to delay two days.

After testing as your instructions,I think the crash may be caused by conflicts between a weather skin and Gmail skin.At the very beginning, i turned off both of them and crash didnt happen when return from sleep;Then i turned off either one of them and things went well when return from sleep.

I got it now. The crash happens in the event loop when the mouse timer is handled. Unfortunately that doesn't tell anything about the reason why it crashes. Are you able to reproduce this always when you wake the computer up from sleep? Does it happen only with certain skins or any of them? Does it happen if you don't have any skins enabled?

I find a fact that if you turn off any skin ,things went well no matter whether you recovered the skin.It means if i turn off the gmail skin and recover it at once then no crash will happen when it is awake no matter whether i have the weather skin work.
