    Hi there,

    I just downloaded and installed the trial version of AC 6.22 yesterday. After a bit of struggling with a funny bug in the AC converter, I managed to compile my app without errors, but the app crashes on startup with a stack overflow. It's tedious to debug this without the source, but maybe someone has an idea what I can check to find out where this stack overflow comes from. The stack is filled with an endless repetition of these lines:

    So I guess it's stuck somewhere in the skinning process but I have no idea where to search. The application is rather huge, so I'd be really thankful for some ideas like “this can happen if you do [this] and [that]” or “check for [something]”…

    Thanks a heap in advance! (no pun intended

    Hello

    Could you send me Dfm-file of the form which have this error?
    Also be sure that you not uses skins from the version 6.31, because new properties was occured there and some problems are possible.

    How can i find out which form has this error? The stack overflow does not occur until after Application.Run has been executed. I recompiled the application in debug mode with full debug information and the callstack looks a bit more informative now, but still… ah well. I'm attaching the callstack, it seems to be stuck somewhere around skinning a TSpeedButton.

    About the skin version: I downloaded cold.asz from the gallery, options.dat inside states a version of 6.14 so it should work, right?

    Thank you
    I'm interested in form which must be shown first.
    Also, what version of Windows and Delphi is used?

    I found the problem meanwhile. This application (rather “legacy”) has a lot of programmatically instantiated controls and passes references to GUI elements around. Some of those escaped the renaming process so that one panel and its child controls still were TPanel etc. instead of TsPanel. You can't see that in the DFM anyway, just in the *.pas. Thanks for the blazing fast support, though. Delphi version is BDS 2006, Windows is XP Pro SP3 (all updates performed). My application works properly now, I just need to rearrange some controls to make room for the eye candy
