Log File Issues

Crash for Non-Administrators Due to Temporary Log File (Bug 1990)

For Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems, those users who do not have administrator privileges can experience a crash when running a project that has previously been designed, Shearwalls would crash. Deleting or renaming the log file in the project folder prevented the crash.

The program now places the temporary file that it uses to construct the log file in the folder designated by Windows for program data, preventing the crash.

Log File Closing ( Change 75)

The program now automatically closes the log file when a document is closed. Previously the log file remained open even if Shearwalls was exited. This occasionally caused program crashes when a log file remained open for a file that was then reopened.
