A Bug about the UsageMonitor plugin

Post by Lssg97 »

Hello everyone!

I'm recently working on a skin that monitors the working state of the GPU. I found a Bug while using the UsageMonitor plugin. The general situation is: if there are two skins using the UsageMonitor plugin, one of them defines PIDToName=1 and the other skin defines
PIDToName=0. When these two skins work at the same time, the definition of the skin opened later will be consistent with the skin opened first, ignoring its own definition.

Details are as follows:
I used the template provided in the Rainmeter Documentation for the demonstration.

Code: Select all

The language of Rainmeter was set to English, and the two skin names were "Text" and "Text2". Except for one more line PIDToName=0 in "Text2", the rest of the codes for the two skins are exactly the same.

When I load "Text" first and then "Text2", both skins show the effect of PIDToName=1; otherwise, both skins show the effect of PIDToName=0.

This is my feedback.

I also tried it: I made a copy of the UsageMonitor.dll file in the Plugins folder. Applying the copy to Text2 still didn't solve the problem.

Well that is an interesting case I missed, surprised that did not cause more catastrophic failure. I will get this updated asap.
