Recursive Pack Libraries

Hi all,

Has anyone had issues with packing libraries with the RecursiveExtendedPack=1?  I am preparing my Citect 7.2 SP5a for upgrade to Citect 2018.  When I run a Pack Libraires on one of my 7.2 projects with the recursive pack set it makes it halfway through the third pass of five, but then crashes the graphics builder. 

The project I am trying to pack has thousands of genies and deeply nested super genies.  Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number of genies?

Thanks!

  • Thanks Oliver, yes, I did have both those settings in my ini file...ExtendedPack=1 and RecursiveExtendedPack=1.

    I have written to Citect Support with the problem but have not yet heard back.

    I hadn't thought to upgrade to 7.5 first. I was going straight from 7.2SP5a to 2018. Thanks!, I can try that.

    I first noticed this issue when I backed up my 7.2 project and brought it over to Citect2018. I noticed then that variables in my deepest nested supergenies were not showing up on graphics pages (This was before any upgrade, just after restore). I upgraded, migrated, packed libraries and updated pages - all succesful. But during attempts to compile, I found that I found that my nested supergenies where still not passing variables down to the deepest nest, which resulted in thousands undefined variables.

    When I found that I couldn't recursively pack in Citect7.2, I susupected that if I fixed the issue in 7.2, and started over, it might not be an issue in 2018.
