Cakewalk Professional for Windows May Cause GP Fault

 Last reviewed: November 23, 1994
Article ID: Q86615
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.1, 3.11

SYMPTOMS

Versions 1.0 and 1.02 of Cakewalk Professional for Windows may cause a general protection (GP) fault in module WINCAKE.EXE.

CAUSE

This error occurs when a .CAL program is missing a parenthesis.

Versions 1.0 and 1.02 of Cakewalk Professional for Windows contain a programming language called CAL, which allows simple tasks to be repeated over a range of MIDI events.

If a .CAL program is missing a closing parenthesis, WINCAKE.EXE might cause a GP fault instead of reporting a syntax error.

This problem has been confirmed by Twelve Tone Systems in version 1.0 and 1.02 of Cakewalk Professional for Windows. This may be corrected in a future version of Cakewalk Professional.
