Win3x 5250 Applet Traps When Wswappc.dll Not Unloaded (172815)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP1
This article was previously published under Q172815 SYMPTOMS
The Windows 3.x version of the 5250 applet (Win5250.exe) traps.
CAUSE
When Win5250.exe terminates, it occasionally does not unload Wswappc.dll
from memory. When Wswappc.dll has not been previously unloaded, Win5250.exe
traps the next time it is run.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0 and
3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1). This problem was corrected in the latest SNA
Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this
Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base

MORE INFORMATION
With the fix applied, Win5250.exe allocates global memory with GMEM_SHARE
and this memory is not discarded when the applet terminates.
