RipBAR 6.0 Not Compatible with Windows NT 3.5

ID: Q93790

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.5
Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5

SYMPTOMS

RipBAR for Windows NT, version 6.0, is not compatible with Windows NT version 3.5.

The application starts, but it doesn't complete painting the screen and an error message appears stating that the instruction at "0x00033d4b" referenced memory at "0x00000021" and the memory could not be read.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the application is dereferencing a GDI object handle as if it were a pointer. This doesn't cause a problem in Windows NT version 3.1, but it causes an access violation in Windows NT version 3.5.

RESOLUTION

This problem has been confirmed with SoftDesign and an update is now available. To obtain an update to RipBAR version 6.04, contact the author, Jonathan Carroll, at one of the following addresses:
