Some CDK functions stopped working in TD2005 PTF1

I'm experiencing problems using the function "GetSystemConstant" in TD 2005
PTF1. It used to work in vanilla TD 2005. This is only a problem in
executables and works as before in user mode.
Has anyone experienced similar problems?

BTW: "Log-a-bug" has not yet been updated to report PTF1 problems (PTF1 is
not an option).

Further investigation showed that at least the functions
"CDKGetChildObjectByName" and "CDKGetSiblingByName" seem to be affected. In
my tests I could reproduce the error under the following conditions:

1. CDK functions must be called from within executables (user mode is not
affected, already mentioned that)
2. Outline handle must be supplied via command line parameter

Hi Christian

I tried out the issue mentioned by you. What I observed is that the
behaviour is same on both the versions. I might be missing something here.
Could you please provide the test apps and more information on the error,
the steps etc.

Regards
Math.

Math,

try the attached app. The application description contains some instructions
to reproduce the error. It's rather easy.
