Error message

Post by CAsba » Thu Nov 23, 2023 1:16 pm

Hi all,
Not in any way trying to invoke, or provoke, or 'any-other-voke' a discussion on comparative linguistics, (referring to my previous topic) I have to report that I just got an error message, which concerns me, as it sounds like a precursor to doomsday (project crash or loss). It reads:-

The handler:revStackName isIDEStack has reached the recursion limit of: 400000.
Execution will be terminated to prevent hang

My first idea was that I have set off a repeat sequence, but I wasn't working on or testing any repeat code today.
Any one experienced this before ?

StopPress
I found the cause, it was a coding error - send "mouseup to btn "xxx"" - that caused it. Surprisingly, it wasn't an error that activated the error report.
