Windows 2000 & XP Pro clients, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, fP 5.0.13.
I have a *clerk posting process which contains 11 gosub commands. These are
all individual "then statements", none of them nested. However, one "then
statement" does contain two consecutive gosubs (gosub one;gosub two). Up
until this week I would see an occasional program termination stating "too
many nested gosubs". This would mostly occur overnight, after their system
maintenance has completed and users are again active on the system. I would
almost never see the "too many nested gosubs error" during the day.
This week I have seen a substantial increase in the number of gosub errors
occurring during the day. Since I don't believe any of the gosubs are
nested I'm unsure as why I am receiving the "too many nested gosubs" error.
My understanding of a nested gosub would be:
If:
Then: gosub one
One If:
Then: gosub two;return
Two If:
Then: gosub three;return
Three If:
Then:...;return
Etc. Could there be an issue with version 5.0.13 with regards to this error
or am I missing something?
