We have had a couple of issues where a single JPG that is in some way corrupted causes errors in our application.

Is there any way we can trap these before the error occurs and substitute the corrupted image with a good / blank one so the dcbrowse shows without errors?

The error log is below in case it helps..

Code: Select all

Hi, Regan.

You may transform the image loading process into a sequence:

Code: Select all

lLoaded := .F.
bError := ErrorBlock({|e|Break(e)})
BEGIN SEQUENCE
 * Load picture file
 lLoaded := .T." // after loading the file - it will not be set if the loading process fails!
END SEQUENCE
ErrorBlock(bError)
IF !lLoaded // something was wrong
  * load picture replacement
ENDIF

If now an error occurs during the picture loading process, the runtime error system will not be started, but the sequence will end without setting "lLoaded", so you can deal with the error.

Thanks Tom

You pointed me in the right direction.

On creating the multi-dim array for the DCBROWSE the image was being loaded using:

aPLU[PLU_EL_BROW_ARRAY][nEL][PLU_ITEM_EL_BITMAP] := dc_getbitmap(cBitMap)

What I didn't take into consideration is that the function call above will return a character string if the image could not be loaded. So I can change it to test for a return value of char and workaround it.

Regan -

DC_GetBitmap() has always had that behavior.
I wrote it that way for pushbuttons, so it would display the name of the bitmap or jpg file on the button if the bitmap could not be found or loaded, rather than cause a runtime error.

That's fine Roger. It was probably my fault for not reading the docs correctly...

I'm just happy 'another one bites the dust'.
