The problem was that in the code I was testing this idea I accidentally included in the #if 0 ... #endif block the whole port creation port. The error, therefore, appeared not due to reusing a port right (this would have been strange, anyways), but due to the fact that I tried to dereference a port that did not exist :-( I removed the bogus line and it works now. Thanks for your help! Regards, scolobb
