Issue

When you were using Autoloader with the "publishing of visualization files" option turned on to upload a large number of DWG files, you received the following error message:

DWG TrueView is running out of system memory

Solution

Autoloader uses TrueView, a Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) application, for the publication of visualization files. There is a Graphical Device Interface (GDI) object leakage issue with MFC applications running on Windows Server 2003 or XP. So the repetitive publishing of visualization files with TrueView will cause the program to run out of memory.

To correct this issue, download and apply the following hotfix from Microsoft: MFC applications leak GDI objects on computers that are running Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP.

Note: This hotfix is also included with Windows Automatic Updates.
