Environment: bcb6 winxp ac-version 7.25

You can repeat this error in about 10 min within your IDE.

1. Create a new Application

2. Add a FileListBox to the form, compile, link and run w/no errors

3. Add a Form1->Activate event to set the filelistbox->mask to the input directory.

Compile, link & run w/no errors, filelistbox is now empty.

4. Add a SkinManager and a SkinProvider. Compile, link & run

Immediately crash with an “Index out of bounds” exception.

Based on my procedures, it seems that the Skin* routines are necessary to create the exception.

Can you folks help me with this critical problem?

Many thanks,

Bill

I removed the “SkinProvider” component and the exception does not occur. Does this help you

isolate the reason for the 'out of bounds' exception?

Many thanks again,

This error occurs when control is drawn in cache for animation effect (SkinManager.AnimEffects.FormShow.Active is True).

Standard FileListBox haven't checking of available items in DrawItem procedure : TextOut(Rect.Left + offset, Rect.Top, Items[Index]) < Index is 0 here, but Items not exists. I can suggest two solutions : – add a skinning support for this control (SkinManager.ThirdParty property) – change SkinManager.AnimEffects.FormShow.Active property to False
