First thanks a lot for this amazing tool.
It makes that i can analyze with this fantastic king-engine under Fritz and the shredder-gui.
Now for my problem.
With all versions of your adapter the king-engine stops always(!) thinking in analyze-mode after between about 44 and 72 minutes(hardware:Athlon 1,5 Ghz).
I am a tournament player and love it to let two programs run the whole night on a position.
It would be a dream if you can find the problem.
With the inbetween ini it works, but the WB2Uci tool is off course better.

Hmm.
I use the analyze function of the engine for 'go infinity' that is the analysis in Fritz.
I will check it up.
There is a switch for it but it is on as default.
Analyze=true
To simulate the analyze function for engines without this build in you have to set it to false. Then I have seen that it could stop.
I guess I have never had time to test it for so long time :)
I set it on tonigh so I can read the log-file tomorrow.
Wich version? I test the newest (The King 3.23 or CM9000).

It´s fantastic that you notice my problem.
The case is with both versions of king (3.12 and 3.23)
Here is my eng:
[ENGINE]
Name=The King 3.23
Author=Johan de Koning, NED
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe
[OPTIONS]
Program=TheKing.exe
InitString=/xboard := xboard\npost\nnew\ncm_parm default\ncm_parm opk=421666 tts=33554432
HashCommand=hash %iM
Hash=32
HashOnCommandline=false
InitTime=2
Edit=setboard
UseSAN=false
Ponder=false
Logfile=false
Priority=Normal
Protocol=2
ShowThinkingMove=true
Thanks for all.

It did not stop during the night here. I used a bit easier eng file but only yuor initstring and hashcommand is somewhat wrong but it should not result in
this stop.
[ENGINE]
Name=The King 3.23
Author=Johan de Koning
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe
[OPTIONS]
Program=TheKing3.23.exe
InitString=cm_parm default\ncm_parm opk=xxx
HashCommand=cm_parm tts=%i004096
Hash=1
Visible=Ponder,Hash,ShowThinkingMove,Logfile
Then I set it up inside Fritz to use 16MB hashtable size.
I will see when I get home if it still running.
I checked the logfile ind it use the right 'analyze' function.
Odd Gunnar
Oh boy.
Analyze=true solved all my problems.
I am so glad you can´t imagine.
So sorry that i have made you so much work.
But one little thing i have noticed:
The betaversion of september didn´t show the move from the start in the display.
Please notice i don´t mean the variationdisplay.This changes immedialtly by playing forward one move.This is the case in the shredder-classic gui,but i pressume it should be the same under the fritz-gui.
Have a good time.

Nice, then I stop my test.
It was running for 16 hour without ShowThinkingMove
And now two hour with this enabled.
No stop in any of these test.
I will test a bit in Shredder to see if find something there.
Odd Gunnar
(The long run didn't bother me at all, it's only the machine that work. I',m only take a snap on the logfile inbetween.)
