Crash in iSiloX v4.15

[Greg D'Unger]

Converting an HTML file (using iSiloX v4.15) which links to about 200 text files will crash due to certain filenames. This may be related to filename length, but I could not confirm this as I got inconsistent results when testing this theory. In particular, there were problems with these link file names :

4x07_MusingsOfACigaretteSmokingMan.txt

which I changed to :

4x07_ACigaretteSmokingMan.txt

to avoid the crash.

iSiloX v4.05 did not crash.

Would you be able to send a zip with the entire set of source content files to http://www.iSilo.com/img/email.jpg so that we can try to reproduce the problem?

[Greg D'Unger]

I sent a subset of yet another case where it crashes.

[iSilo]

Thanks for sending the files. It turns out that the problem is related to the filename length as you surmised. Specifically, converting a text file where the length of the file name minus the .txt extension if any plus the number of non-alphanumeric characters multiplied by two is greater than 32 characters may result in a crash. This issue will be fixed for the next update.

The workaround as you suggested is to shorten the filename.

Has this problem been fixed in iSiloX 4.20? It wasnt listed as one of the bug fixes.

[iSilo]

Yes, the problem was actually fixed in version 4.2. The change has now been added to the iSiloX revision history to correctly reflect this. Thank you for pointing it out.
