tc.wdx out of memory

[Hacker]

Hi Christian,
TC 8.51a, 32-bit, Windows 7 64-bit. I was browsing a dir with 2958 files and 43 dirs. How does this happen?

error

Crash in plugin tc.wdx:

Process Explorer memory details for TC

TIA

This is an exception which occurs when a function to allocate memory fails.

What custom columns from internal tc plugin do you use?

[Hacker]

Christian,
At the time of the error message I was not using any custom column view, only Brief or Full. Some time before the error message I might have been using Thumbnail View which itself only shows [=tc.writedate.D.M.Y hs] and some other fields from other plugins.

Maybe you have defined custom colors or hints with this?

[Hacker]

Christian,
Ah indeed, I have files with comments colored grey, the definition is:
tc - comment - regex - .

OK, I will check whether there is any memory leak in this special setup (I'm not aware of any). Maybe you can replace "regex" by "!=":

tc - comment - != - (empty string)

Christian,
Thank you. I will try your suggestion.
