Problems with ZyFIND and ZyINDEX when the indexlist.xml contains more than 1024 indexes

SYMPTOMS

Upon selecting an index in ZyFIND you will get the message "Bad variable type". When starting up ZyINDEX, the application crashes.

CAUSE

his is caused by having more than 1024 indexes in your Indexlist.xml.

ZyIMAGECatalog allocates a fixed array of size 1024 for catalog entries (in ZyCatalogSection class). This component is called in ZyIndexSelectionCom, to automatically convert the indexlist.ist to an xml format.

RESOLUTION

You will need to reduce the number of indexes in your indexlist.xml by removing indexes in ZyINDEX.
