This works fine for me, no hang -- but I use a recent CVS build. Have
you tried the latest shapshot?
I have just tried:
DLL version: 1.5.20
...
Build date: Sun Jun 4 16:35:33 EDT 2006
Snapshot date: 20060604-16:33:54
And I find it has fixed the problem. Thanks!
Is there any indication as to how long before 1.5.20 will be fully
released? I don't want to risk running under a CVS snapshot except for
this test.
If you check the email archives, you will see a number of calls for testing
of the snapshots in preparation for 1.5.20. From that you can surmise that
any recent snapshot is likely to be pretty close to the eventual released
version. Keep an eye out here for more details.
