516.0. "PROBLEM: accvio adding instance to domain from Iconic PM" by COOKIE::KITTELL (Richard - Architected Info Mgmt) Tue Dec 04 1990 15:11

T1.1.0

Scenario: from the iconic interface, either adding an existing global
entity to a domain, or creating and adding it. The error occurs after
the mouse is clicked with the cursor in the map window.

%SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, reason mask=00, virtual address=00000000, PC
=00011ED2, PSL=03C00004
break on exception at SHARE$VAXCRTL+47314

Setting breakpoints on the entry points in my access module, the SHOW
entry point is called and returns the ILV below. Then the error occurs.

	Richard, I take it you were adding your global entity. Is this true? Are you able to add other entities such as bridges, node4s etc.? Fred
516.3	No need to read before you reply...just reply!	TOOK::F_MESSINGER		`Tue Dec 04 1990 18:53`	8
	Of course he was adding his own global entity, Fred! Still though, can you add a node or bridge? Fred
516.4	INFO:	COOKIE::KITTELL	Richard - Architected Info Mgmt	`Wed Dec 05 1990 11:14`	15
	RE: Adding bridge or node I can't try that, as I don't use MCC for network management, and in fact have removed the network management entities from my copy of the dictionary to improve dictionary update performance. I have tried creating and registering the entity with FCL, then using the Iconic interface to add the entity to the domain and map. Same error. Also I've noted that after the error, the entity is in the domain and map. So the error occurs after the domain and map are updated. Are there more addresses I can give you from DEBUG to help you determine the point of the accvio?
516.5	CLOSE: Probably bad dict info	COOKIE::KITTELL	Richard - Architected Info Mgmt	`Thu Dec 06 1990 14:46`	14
	In the past when the iconic PM has done unexpected things it has been because the dictionary doesn't contain what it expected. So I rebuilt the dictionary, and started getting error message boxes instead of accvios. The error messages were mostly NOTFOUND, as I had left some of the children of the GE out of the dispatch table. Once I fixed that I was able to add my GE to the map. It may be worth a QAR suggesting that a condition handler be put in the PM to intercept accvios and put up a "Bad Dictionary Info" message box. :-)
