Hello Everyone,
Subject: AmiBroker (running in laptop) closes unexpectedly on power failure to external monitors (extended) with floating window charts/Analysis in it.
Running Amibroker 6.30.5 64 bit licensed version in Laptop with good battery.
I have connected 2 external monitors (1 HDMI & 1 Mini DP) which displays couple of charts/Analysis in floating windows.
The moment power failure happens the external monitors goes down but the laptop is undisturbed & running, yet Amibroker closes unexpectedly.
(Wifi and network connectivity is not disturbed as its on UPS.)
The issue is consistent every time the power fails and the extended monitors have floating windows in it.
If there is no floating windows in external monitors, Amibroker doesn’t terminate unexpectedly on normal power failure.
I tried testing this manually by switching off the power supply to the monitors randomly, I could replicate the issue only once in 10 times approx.., Couldn't isolate on why it fails the "one" time it fails during simulation.
Except for Amibroker, data plug-in, Chrome and command prompt windows running continuous ping and js script for repeated execution of scan and exploration using anlaysisDoc OLE object, no other applications are running at the time of failure.
Searched with relevant keywords that I can think of but couldn’t find any post on this issue.
I know the reliable solution is to get an UPS for the monitors , but is there a way to avoid the unexpected termination of Amibroker as I keep losing the day’s tick data for all symbols. And sometimes symbol specific data(whichever symbol chart is open at the time of power failure) gets corrupted. So need to delete those symbols and repopulate.
Has anyone faced such an issue?
Would appreciate any suggestions/solutions. Thanks.
Thanks,
Karthik P
