GDI Resources?

I have had many problems using Captivate 1.0 to capture
screen srecordings from my CAD application. I have spoken to the
developers of the CAD program and they put it down to GDI
resources. They told me to enable GDI resources in the columns of
my Task Manager (right click) and check the amount of GDI resources
being used. My CAD application maxes out at about 2375 GDI Objects,
while Captivate 1.0 uses about 673 GDI Objects.
Does anyone know if this is excessive? Apparently this is not
dependent on hardware, but I don't know enough about it to be sure.
The reason why I am asking is because whenever I drag a dialog,
during a screen recording, Captivate shows remnants of everywhere
my dialog box has been dragged and there's no way of getting rid of
it. It's a very serious matter that may unfortunately prevent me
from using the software entirely. Maybe Captivate has a resource
leak? Maybe Captivate 2.0 solves the problem? Maybe there is a
setting somewhere that solves it?
In any case, I would like to hear from anyone who may be able
to shed some light on the subject, or even solve the problem! I
really want to use Captivate - and preferably without editing
images to remove my dialog remnants.
Thanks in advance,

Have you adjusted the Video Acceleration option at all?
Display Properties > Settings > Advanced >
Troubleshoot.
Knock that slider down a notch and try again. If no luck,
down another
notch and try again...until there are no more notches to try
or the
recording improves.
If you can't get a decent result, perhaps try Camtasia. It's
pretty good
at these full-motion recordings...as that's how it captures
the entire
process (as a movie, not as screenshots like Captivate does).
However,
that can also result in pretty sizable output files. Camtasia
automatically disables the screen acceleration (if so
enabled), so maybe
the same principle will work with Captivate.
As a workaround idea for such things, do you actually have to
show the
window dragging? It's a pretty easy concept. Could you not
say, "Now I'm
going to move this window to the side..." and show your mouse
moving to
the window, then erase the 'wacky' frames with trails so the
next frame
is the window in the new location. It may be a bit...dramatic
of a move
but would it really hurt the instruction? I'd think only
perhaps if the
point of the instruction was to show users how to move
windows...
Also, maybe check out Display Properties > Appearance >
Effects. If
nothing else, perhaps unchecking 'show window contents while
dragging'
will solve the problem by showing the window outline during
the drag,
which should be a lot less 'GDI' intensive.

CrystalReportViewer 2008 does not release GDI objects after closing.

We need help in resolving an issue with a WinForms application we have developed that makes use of the Crystal Reports 2008 viewer control to both generate reports based on various parameters the user supplies and to view these same reports having been previously saved in crystal 2008 format.
The issue we are seeing is that GDI objects are being created during the report generation process but some are not being released when the report viewer window is closed down. This leads to the system running out of GDI objects (seen by using the Windows task manager) and ultimately the application crashes. It is only when the application is closed completely that GDI resources are returned to the system.
In an effort to isolate the cause of this problem we created a much simplified WinForms application that simply allowed us to systematically open and close a WinForm that contains a CrystalReportViewer to display one of our example reports. We found that the behaviour is the same for this application too.
Browsing the crystal reports forums reveals there have been a few questions about u201Cmemory leaksu201D like this (see "Thread: CrystalReportViewer memory usage increases until out of memory" as an example) and there has been a good deal of talk about manually "disposing" of report documents and viewers but trying this does not correct this issue
The extent of the "GDI Object leak" does depend upon the kind of report that is pulled in. One report we have that is 360 pages long and contains graphs and tables of data leaks 390 object per test iteration.
Is this a known issue with the Crystal Report Viewer and if so is there an update or a workaround available?
Are we performing all the correct initialisation prior to using the viewer? For example we are supplying the report to the viewer through a ReportDocument object; is there something special we need to do with that?
Do we have to do anything special when closing the viewer?
Could it be to do with the design of our reports? We are using the Crystal Reports 2008 editor (sp1) to do this design.
We urgently need to help in understanding why this is happening and to be able implement a solution that will address this problem.
I have provided the following code snippets of this sample application to give a flavour of what we are doing and hopefully you can see that it is not complex. The example shows the crystal viewer being presented with a ReportDocument as a Report Source ... this is how our proper application does things but if you try supplying the filename of the crystal report directly, the problem is the same.
This C# code was written using Visual Studio 2008.

Hi Martyn,
I tested this and found after using this code to re-initialize the report viewer there we still 400 GDI objects not getting released. This may or may not be a CR issue. Still testing.
Try this also, I simply created a close button but you should be able to do this in your form close method also depending on how you do it:
        private void CloseReport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            rptClientDoc.Close();
            crystalReportViewer1.Dispose();
            GC.Collect();
            this.crystalReportViewer1 = new CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer();
            InitializeComponent();
            crystalReportViewer1.ShowExportButton = true;
            crystalReportViewer1.EnableRefresh = true;
            crystalReportViewer1.Controls.Count.ToString();
            crystalReportViewer1.BackColor.IsNamedColor.ToString();
            crystalReportViewer1.EnableToolTips = true;
            crystalReportViewer1.Refresh();

GDI Leak

This has only started happening in the last few days. After I start up iTunes 7.0.2.16 on Windows XP MCE 2005 SP2, it starts leaking GDI resources. Normally it uses around 1,000-2,000 GDI resources - excessive, but normal. Now it keeps eating resources over the course of 2-5 minutes until it reaches the per-process maximum of 10,000, when the application becomes unusable due to being unable to render menus and its window properly. The leaks seems to happen most when iTunes is downloading podcasts - I have 20 podcast subscriptions with around 450 items within.
I'm going to try a reboot, as I haven't rebooted this machine in about 2 weeks, but if anyone has any other ideas ...

I am using 6.0.5 and wondered about iTunes and GDI resources.
Running the task manager is runs around 1000 playing music, but go into the store and look at a few albums and it climbed to around 6000 and stayed there even after going back to the library.
So even 6.0.5 seems rather greedy.

Error Code -17400; Unable to create thread

Running TestStand 4.0. Test sequence calls many sequences that run as new executions and runs fine for up to about 8 units testing simultaneously. After that, I get a run-time error code -17400; Unable to create thread. There are no other details available. The steps that generate the error are able to create the new executions initially, but eventually fail once about 22 executions are running. I am monitoring memory resources and there does not appear to be any issues. Any troubleshooting suggestions? Thanks.

My test sequence has several test groups, each of which contain loops that create new threads (tests) for 48 UUTs. Thus the number of running threads does get very high. I was running into problems with Windows XP GDI Object resources once the number of threads reached about 200. I then modified my program into smaller test groups to keep the number of threads at any time to less than 150. GDI resources are no longer an issue, but the error -17400 unable to create thread happens after the first test group has completed and the second test group is just trying to run. Note that the second test group runs fine if I skip the first test group, so the sequence itself should be okay. I thought it might be a memory issue (even though there are no apparent memory issues seen in Windows Task Manager), so I set the "Unload after step executes" property for each of the new executions created. That did not resolve the issue.
I am trying to create a simple sequence to duplicate the error without using any of the actual test sequences that require test hardware, but have not been successful thus far.
Thanks for your replies and suggestions!

Settlements Form /XTRSLSET/ returns error

Hi all,
We are using EBS 11.5.10.2.
When navigate to
1) Treasury
2) Settlements
3) Settlements
4) Choose company and Due/Settle Date
5) Uncheck "Unauthorized Before Settlement Date"
6) Click on Deal Type to query transactions
We received the following error:
FRM-40735: POST-QUERY trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-01403.We don't have any customization on that form.
Any ideas how to debug this?
Thanks in advance,
Bahchevanov.

One problem that I see is that you're creating the COM object in your ctor. At this point in the process your UI actually hasn't been created yet. All that has happened is that the object has been allocated. If you need to do anything with the UI itself
that requires the window handle then you need to defer until at least the OnLoad method. It is at this point that the window handle will have been created.
Also note that you're creating (in your example) 100K forms. This is going to eat up GDI resources and can cause problems. Therefore I don't consider it a reliable example of the problem because once GDI resources are running low then all sorts
of errors will occur. I would honestly expect a problem in this case because you are using up all the GDI resources for the process. Windows itself has a theoretical limit of 64K GDI handles and you're loop is going to easily exceed that.

This is causing me a big headache at the moment. Could anyone shed any light on why this happens.

Try updating your video card drivers. Also, monitor your GDI resources -- the error may be the result of these resources running low.

I have also seen the GDI error in 95. This is due to the color palette set
to 16 bit or higher in you display settings. It works fine when this is set
to 256. I am working with Forte to resolve this problem now.
We have successfully used MetaFrame at Oxford. We have about 50 people
using it for the last 5 months without any problems. Here is our hardware
configuration:
The Citrix servers are HP Lpr netservers with 2X450 Pentium IIs and 576 MB
RAM. The OS software is Citrix Metaframe 1.0 and Windows Terminal Server
1.0 (basically NT 4.0 SP3).
We are running Forte 3.0.G.4.

Bill,
I have only seen the GDI resource error in '95. It's
not seen on NT. It's caused by the available video
memory being consumed. The app blows up when too many
windows are opened. I know of no way to increase this
memory. Unfortunately some leaky apps eat up this
space.
I've seen it, I hate it, and I recommend NT or Unix or
about any other operating system.

Can't create a window for execution. GDI or User resources too low

I get this error when i try to do a single pass on my sequence.
the labview code issued involves Classes and a lots of Vi's that are included on a Hardware Abstraction Layer
the sequence executes but i cant see anything on the screen like the pass fail data, or the trace arrow to see which step is executing.
have you guys seen this before?

You can check the GDI and USER object usage of your process in the Window's task manager (you can enable columns which will show this for all of the running processes). Is it very high? If so you might have some code which is leaking GDI or USER objects somewhere. Or do you have a lot of windows open in TestStand? If so then you could legitimately be using a lot of GDI or USER resources.
Hope this helps,
-Doug

9879: GDI Objects resource leak in explorer.exe (directly affects Taskbar)

Update 1 (Nov 18): The leak seems to be exacerbated by the use of a progress bar within a given program's taskbar icon. For example, downloads with a browser show such status. In particular, media players often do this too, and since people
tend to use media players for an hour or two at a time, the problem can worsen quickly when in use.
===========(Original message below)
Twice in one day I've seen GDI Objects (as shown in Task Manager--if you add the column on the Details tab--and Process Explorer) hit 10K for Explorer.exe. The first time was after about 15 hours, the second time about 4.
What caused me to look was a misbehaving taskbar: icons for some running programs were suddenly either blank or changed, some would do nothing when clicked, the Start menu was barely functional, my quicklaunch shortcut menu didn't work, etc.
Killing explorer.exe and restarting it allows you to proceed as usual.
This definitely didn't happen in the preceding builds.
Further details provided if this turns out to be something that others see.

Hi
Since I can't reproduce your issue with some
undefined code.
Just take a look at from
Graphics.FromImage Method
in MSDN document.
You should always call the Dispose method to release the
Graphics and related resources created by the
FromImage method. Please try and test it again.
If still can't resolve, please post the complete code. Thanks.
Have a nice day！

GDI object leak using an applet with Java Plugin 1.4.2_02

We have an application where we use an applet to draw some graphs. The applet has an interface to update the graphical data using Javascripts. Now duing every graphical update of the graph there a leak of the GDI objects. Over time the display on the machine gets frozen due to lack of resources.
This problem is happening with IE 6.0 using Sun Java Plug-in 1.4.2_02.
Has anybody else seen this problem. Is there any work aorund for this issue.

The code is not leaking. This has been verified.
The problem has been fixed in 1.5.0 (5.0) Beta 2 version but I don't know then final release of this is going to be. Also using a beta version now is not an option.
The 1.4.2_04 did not fix the GDI leak that I am seeing, I was hoping it would.

Releasing hardware resources on LabVIEW crash

Hi all,
I am using PXI chassis with many DAQ cards, mux, ARINC,RS-422 etc.
It is a common problem that in the event of LabVIEW crash, the hardware resources are not released and the system should be restarted to access the resources again.
Scenario:
LV1 is the main LabVIEW program that opens the harware resources.
LV2 is a separate LabVIEW program (a utility) runs as a separate process.
Now if the LV1 opened few references to the hardware devices and shares these references to the LV2.
In the event of LV1 process crash, LV2 still runs; can the LV2 process close the open references?
Can LV2 process release the resources opened by LV1?

It really depends a little. Even XP was fairly good about releasing normal OS objects such as all kind of handles (files, synchronizationo objects, GDI objects, etc). But once kernel resources get involved things get a lot more trickier and I really doubt there is an universal way for an OS to make sure even such resources get properly closed on process termination without a very intensive, expensive and performance hungry bookkeeping. And I don't see the average user wanting to pay that price in performance all the time for the incidential case when the system crashes.
So in general it is safer to restart the OS after a crash even if the system seems to work fine, This is definitely true if your application has been involved in some way with directly invoking kernel drivers, which any application that interfaces to NI (and other manufacturers) hardware basically does. I'm not saying that NI couldn't possibly improve that in the user space part of those drivers somehow. However the effort for that could be pretty expensive and the perceived advantage would be small for most end users.

HT1925 I get a message saying The feature I am trying to use is on a network resource that is unavalable when I try to open iTunes.

When I try to open iTunes a widow appears called Windows Installer. It tells me that the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavalable. It tell me to Click OK or try again or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the intallation package iTunes.msi. I suggests I should find this in a drop down box in the window. There is a box but no folder iTunes.msi. If I click the cancel button iTunes will open and work. I wish to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it. I am finding that I can play music on iTunes OK through my sound card but if I try to play streamed music from the web in YouTube and fom My Space the music is a poor quality with crackles and distortion. Other forums suggest uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing it. I ahve tried to uninstall iTunes but it comes up with the Window noted above and then stops. I need to stop the crackle when streaming music. Please help.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

How to set text resources avoiding automatic page update with c:set tag

Hello everyone,
I'm developing my web application with JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 in order to support two language locales (en and de). Following this guide I've performed the following steps:
Creation of two property files (Resources.properties and Resources_de.properties) with the key-value entries;
Modify of faces-config.xml file adding these lines:
<locale-config>
        <default-locale>en</default-locale>
        <supported-locale>de</supported-locale>
</locale-config>
<resource-bundle>
      <base-name>view.Resources</base-name>
      <var>res</var>
   </resource-bundle>
In the project properties > Resources Bundle I've checked:
Automatically Synchronize Bundle;
Warn about Hard-coed Translatable Strings;
Always Prompt for Description.
In the same place I've set the default project bundle name to view.Resources.
In a test JSP page I've a outputText with the value #{res['HELLOWORLD']} where HELLOWORLD is the key in the property files. All works fine, and the correct string is shown based on locale browser settings.
Anyway, when I use the "Select Text Resources..." menu in any text value choosing a value from the default property file, JDev automatically adds the following tag:
<c:set var="customuiBundle" value="#{adfBundle['view.ViewControllerBundle']}"/>
setting the value of the text in #{ViewControllerBundle.HELLOWORLD}.
There is a way to avoid this behavior? Can I manage the resources in a different way? I would to choose a value from the list in order to get the res.KEY value instead of ViewControllerBundle.KEY value.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Manuel

don't select from menu - go to source and write it . The problem with the tools is they have a certain way of doing things and don't think we should spend time customizing jdeveloper rather concentrate on the work in hand.

GDI Resources?
