Crash while loading TX16Wx into my plugin bridge

[sagamusix]

It seems that loading TX16Wx into my plugin bridge for plugin verification seems to cause a crash while unloading the plugin. The bridge doesn't really do anything fancy and the crash appears to happen in a window handling function (which should not be called at this point...?), so I'm posting this here, as it could very well be a plugin bug.
Basically, this happens while the plugin is scanned for first use. During this process, effOpen, effGetPlugCategory and effClose are called. The crash appears to happen in effClose. I've attached the minidump generated by the plugin. My host, including the plugin bridge, can be found at http://openmpt.org/ - registering the plugin is as simple as dragging the DLL onto the main window. It should crash when doing so. Please let me know if you need any further help with reproducing the crash.

This should work now in the latest 2.4.0 build.

Hm, I still seem to be getting an excpetion thrown at me when loading the 2.4 pre-release.

Aha. I see the problem. Seems your bridge is something as rare as a windows program with no COM usage, exposing with uninitialized COM before actually releasing the last COM object.

I've updated the builds (no version change - lazy, but detail version no will differ). It should hopefully fix this.

Yup, that seems to do the trick - thanks a lot for fixing it! The bridge does indeed pretty much do nothing at all apart from passing through dispatch codes, there's not a single bit of COM or anything.

By the way, I noticed that your installer seems to try opening the readme file after installation even when one chooses not to install documentation. This results in Notepad popping up with a "no such file" error. It's just a minor detail but it seemed a bit odd.

Installer condition broken. Thanks for the heads up. Should be fixed now.
