Hello,

We are using the STL Galil library for VS2013, version 555. We initialize the galil without problem and our first message query works, (e.g. MG_MOA) but subsequent queries always timeout: "1010 TIMEOUT ERROR. Galil::command("MG_MOA") took longer than 500 ms to write". The commands are not really timing out in the sense that I change the timeout variable in the debugger to 20000 ms but it returns the timeout immediately without waiting 20 seconds. After 1 query times out, all subsequent queries likewise timeout.

We had this problem once before but it went away before we could investigate deeply. Any ideas on the root cause?

Thanks,
Jeff

P.S. Does search feature of the forum still work?

Looks like the problem was that another dll was calling WSACleanup which terminates the use of Windows sockets. The root problem isn't in the Galil driver but it could have a more helpful error message.
