#150 FPU (Float Point Unit) Bug

[Anonymous]

With the newest version of BB4win(bb2) RC3 0.4.12.23,
the FPU is changed and this creates a problem with
programs that require the FPU to be masked. Visual
Studio .NET 2003 is one of those programs, coming back
with the error "Exception in system.drawing.dll". BB1
0.3.8.29 does not have this issue. So to be able to
compile and run .NET projects, you have to either
uninstall BB2, revert to BB1, or insert a few lines of
code for every program to remask this FPU. Since source
code is not released with every program, this presents
a problem with the last option to add lines of code to
fix the FPU.

10min ago i posted the above bug with the FPU, and now i've
found another way around it. With BB2, you will get the
error when BB first boots. But if you simple restart BB, bug
is fixed, the FPU is remasked. You can then run without the
error ever coming up while you compile.
