Found the cause of the AV on exiting the Delphi IDE

[dummzeuch 1644]

There was a bug in the (yet unreleased) GExperts code that caused an access violation every time the Delphi IDE was closed. I have just found it, but boy was that difficult!

I knew the problem existed in the current source code and by trial and error I found a source code revision that did not yet have it: #2415. So I compared those revisions and step by step narrowed it down to the changes in the unit GX_IdeFormChangeManager in revision #2433 which was a fix for a redrawing bug in the Delphi 10.2 Search Path dialog.

 

So I removed the code I had added ...

Perhaps it makes sense to put the code of form detection into a separate unit (if possible)? Then you will not have to add a new dependency between the old units.

That's exactly what I did (50 minutes ago):

I installed it manually and during start up of the IDE the following error message comes up about the missing icon.

 

Some of the default GExperts icons are missing.  Make sure that the icons exist in a directory called "Icons" underneath the main GExperts installation directory and is included in "GXIcons.rc".  The file missing is: TGxGotoPrevModification.bmp

Not sure, because TMS talked about the workaround for an ISO install.

I installed via GetIt and my FrameworkDir seems to be correct and the dir is also available on the disc.
