iOS Question iRandoAccessFile issue

[Markos]

Hi All

I have iRandomAccess v1.72 on b4i 5.81 using latest MacBuilder and I have an issue with the library failing to read files larger than 70kbytes it crashes the app if attempts to read beyond a 70th loop of reading 1024bytes. I have an App using same library for B4a and it is fine reading beyond 70kbytes.

If there is a fix for this already great! If not I will like to raise this issue for analysis and resolution. I have exhausted 2 days and isolated the problem to the library.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

False alarm the issue was a local variable memory not being released upon leaving a sub. Issue resolved

My debugging too is often accelerated by publicly describing the problem I am chasing down ;-)

Why the answer always becomes obvious immediately after posting, and not before, I don't know.

Hi all

I have an answer for that

I am not sure what issue you are experiencing but for me my Sub to fill the buffer with a read I locally declared two buffer variable arrays and only one was being returned. It seems the memory wasnt being released for the array I used to transpose data.

If you want you can globally declare the buffer array and remove the local dim declaration.

Hope this helps you
