Timers not being shut down properly
Posted: Fri Dec 02, 2005 23:24 pm
Greetings,
The Msn 4 mIRC v3.48 appears to be more stable than the previous versions, my thanks and congratulations to andyc, the author.
I noticed while trying to work out a section of the code therein that the timers checking for keyboard entrys of those invited to chat via a IM session did not stop nor deactive long after those people left, and I have dozens and dozens of them sitting there pulling resources like leeches long after the users have left the IM Session.
* Timer rosedreamer20@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype rosedreamer20@hotmail.com (Talk)
* Timer pagonlair@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype pagonlair@hotmail.com (Talk)
* Timer cidinhasz@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype cidinhasz@hotmail.com (Talk)
* Timer krystlehaleys@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype krystlehaleys@hotmail.com (Talk)
* Timer paganz@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype paganz@hotmail.com (Talk)
* Timer punk_n_dreamed@hotmail.com 1ms delay checktype punk_n_dreamed@hotmail.com (Talk)
etc.etc.etc. (the above email addys have been changed from their original)
Manually trying to fix this problem appears to be problematic to me:
/timer punk_n_dreamed@hotmail.com OFF
gives me:
/timer: timer 1 not active
Anyway, I see this as a problematic bug, and look forward to the suggested fix on this. I figure after acouple hundred different visitors have come and gone, the resources still being wasted on those 200+ 1ms timers should begin to drag the system down.
