Any idea what’s causing this crash yet?Is there some way I can at least detect the error and handle it myself instead of crashing?

I'll take a look and try to reproduce it today or tomorrow. Sorry, I've been busy lately.

*Subject:* Re: [fpc-pascal] PTCGraph Causing 217

I’ve made a sample program that demonstrates the problem

https://gist.github.com/Zaaphod/936901eb5f31df5044d2bd36a7cf6c91 <https://gist.github.com/Zaaphod/936901eb5f31df5044d2bd36a7cf6c91>

When I was testing it, I found out that the problem shows up also with PTCCRT.Keypressed,

Procedure to re-produce bug in Putimage

1.Run program in Windows

2.Do something that activates Windows User Account Control like open an administrator command prompt

3.Program crashes with exitcode 217 EAccessViolation: Access violation on line 108 which is doing Putimage, even if you answer NO to user account control

Procedure to re-produce bug in Keypressed

1.UnComment //Until ptccrt.Keypressed;Comment out //Until ptccrt.Keypressed;

2.Run Program in Windows

3.Do something that activates Windows User Account Control like open an administrator command prompt

4.Program crashes with exitcode 217 EAccessViolation: Access violation on line 114 which is doing Keypresed (sometimes the error is on putimage)

Other things that cause it:

Unplug monitor and plug it back in

Change Display settings

Putting computer to sleep

Unknown reasons… system just idle

    I’ve been having issues with PTCGraph causing a runtime Error 217
    : EAccessViolation: Access violation at seemingly random times in
    my program.The error is always on a line with either GetImage() or
    PutImage() but not the same one.The program can run for hours with
    no problems doing GetImage and PutImage every second or so, and
    then it just stops with this error.

    I know that if something disrupts the screen… like if I install a
    program and the Windows user control thing asks for a password,
    that ALWAYS causes this to happen, or if I unplug my monitor and
    plug it back in…. I find that this happens.. but lately it seems
    to happen for no reason.

    I don’t know enough about it to track it down, but is there some
    way I Can find out what causes this and prevent the error?It would
    be nice if I could detect the condition that causes this issue,
    and if I find that the issues is present, just stop trying to do
    Getimage() or PutImage() until the condition is resolved.

Can you provide an example program and exact steps to reproduce this bug?
