I'm trying to debug the customize problems under mswindows and need some input from someone who knows. Basically a popup menu encodes its result by creating a misc_user_event with msic.function set to Qeval and misc.object set to the thing to eval. Now as far as I can see this gets evaluated as part of dispatch_event() which seems correct. Unfortunately widget-choose appears to rely on the function *not* getting evaluated but rather returning (eval ("<somthing>")). For example with the menu item; ["Name" ("Name") t] widget-choose relies on (eval ("Name")) being returned. Unfortunately under mswindows the eval actually gets evaluated in dispatch_event and you get the error "Inavlid Function "Name"". Now actually the mswindows operation seems correct to me, but I don't understand why it works under X - the event isn't evaluated somehow and all works ok. Also unfortunately it *sometimes* works under mswindows and seems to be timing related - for instance if I step through the lisp it works perfectly. I really would like to fix this for 21.0 if at all possible so any input appreciated. andy --------------------------------------------------------------------------- " .sigs are like your face - rarely seen by you and uglier than you think" Dr Andy Piper, Technical Architect, Parallax Solutions Ltd mail: andyp(a)parallax.co.uk web: www.parallax.co.uk/~andyp
