Repeatedly create Series at Runtime

Hello,
i'm using C++ Builder 10.4.2 with the classic compiler for my 32 bit application. In this application i have a Main Form and a Secondary Form that has a Chart with between 2 to 5 TFastLine Series, the user get to decide the number of Serie and data is different everytime. So everytime the user opens the Secondary Form i need to populate the Chart with these Series, and so everytime the Secondary Form closes i need to free and remove the Series. My code:

Code: Select all

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
void __fastcall SecondaryForm::FormShow(TObject *Sender)
{
 TFastLineSeries *Sc;
 Chart->Canvas->ReferenceCanvas->Pen->OwnerCriticalSection = NULL;
 for(k=0; k<nSeries; k++)
 { 
 Chart->AddSeries(new TFastLineSeries(Chart)); 
 Sc = dynamic_cast<TFastLineSeries*>(Chart->Series[k]);
 Sc->ParentChart = Chart;
        
 //instruction to speed-up
 Sc->LinePen->Width = 0;
 Sc->LinePen->OwnerCriticalSection = NULL;

 //other code that populate the Series with dynamic array method

}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
void __fastcall SecondaryForm::FormClose(TObject *Sender, TCloseAction &Action)
{
      Chart->SeriesList->Clear();   //free and remove Series ??
}
My question is: am i doing right with the code? i have some runtime errors and i think the error may come from this code.

Hello,

Sorry for the late reply here.
I've done a simple example project to test this and it seems to work without errors for me in RAD 11.1, both with the new and the classic compiler.
