Hi DM,ããI've been wanting to try to debug what may be a memory leak issue (when theãSynchronet web server is in use, Synchronet's memory usage creeps up until it'sãusing almost all the available RAM). So, I updated my src directory from CVSãand tried to build sbbs3.sln. I'm using Visual Studio 2019 Community. I triedãbuilding in debug mode so the debug symbols would be available. It got to aãpoint where text.h was clobbered to where everything in text.h after the "enumã{" line was removed, so when it tried to build further projets, it was givingãme the error "fatal error C1070: mismatched #if/#endif pair in fileã'D:\SynchronetCVS\src\sbbs3\text.h'".ããI noticed this in the output:ãerror MSB3073: The command ".\msvc.win32.exe.debug\textgenãerror MSB3073: :VCEnd" exited with code 1ãDone building project "textgen.vcxproj" -- FAILED.ãããIt seems most of the binaries got built though. I tried restoring all ofãtext.h and building again, and it built more of the projects before thatãhappened again.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

Are you building on the same system as the BBS? If you so, you need to make sure your SBBSCTRL env var is pointing to the location of a valid text.dat file.ããã digital manããSynchronet "Real Fact" #4:ãSynchronet version 3 is written mostly in C, with some C++, x86 ASM, and Pascal.ãNorco, CA WX: 73.5øF, 58.0% humidity, 0 mph SSW wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

However, I have my BBSãdirectory tree separate from my Synchronet CVS checkout, and I might ratherãhave it use the text.dat in CVS rather than the one I'm actually using for myãBBS.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã
