Frontier DLL Programming: what does "Internal Error: too many pophashtables" mean?

[Steven Manschot]

Hi,

As the subject says:

What does "Internal Error: too many pophashtables" mean?

For your info here's the source that let it happen, I write an ImageMagick 
Image object back to the ODB.

//*****************************************************************************
//
//writeImageToODB
//
void writeImageToODB(Image& image, char* path, XDLLProcTable * proctable) {
	std::string funcname("writeImageToODB");

	Handle hImg = NULL;;
	try {

		Blob blob;
		image.write(&blob);

		odbRef odb;
		FU_OK( odb=(*(proctable->xOdbGetCurrentRoot)) (), "xOdbGetCurrentRoot" );
		
		FU_OK( hImg = (*(proctable->xMemAlloc)) (blob.length()+4), "xMemAlloc");

		char* data = NULL;
		FU_OK(data = (char *) (*(proctable->xMemLock)) (hImg), "xMemLock");

		memcpy(data+4,blob.data(),blob.length());

		if(image.magick().compare("JPEG") == 0) { strncpy(data,"jpg ",4); } else {
			if(image.magick().compare("GIF") == 0) { strncpy(data,"gif ",4); } else {
				throw("unknown type");
			}
		}

		(*(proctable->xMemUnlock)) (hImg);

		odbValueRecord value;
		value.data.binaryvalue = hImg;
		value.valuetype = odb_binaryvaluetype;

		FU_OK( (*(proctable->xOdbSetValue)) (odb, (unsigned char*)CtoPstr(path), 
&value), "xOdbSetValue");

	}
	catch( Magick::Exception &error ) {
		if(hImg) (*(proctable->xMemFree)) (hImg);
		throw (funcname + "::" + error.what());
	}
	catch( std::string &msg ) {
		if(hImg) (*(proctable->xMemFree)) (hImg);
		throw(msg);
	}
}
