| Summary | 0001053: file open dialog crashes CdC | ||||
| Description | Every file open dialog now crashes CdC. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | I can't be sure when this started but it definitely happened with 2254. I have just tried it again with 2278 and this still happens. It does not matter with file open dialog it is, they all make CdC non-responsive and Windows eventually says it is not responding. I tried deleting the skychart.ini before starting. When I went to add my observatory horizon line it crashed. Previously the major nuisance was with the solar system objects dialogs trying to use my previously downloaded comet and asteroid lists. Trying to select a previously downloaded DSS image also crashes CdC. | ||||
| Additional Information | I'll download the debug version and see if it provides any further hints. | ||||

Debug version also crashes the same way. Windows reports: Log Name: Application Source: Application Error Date: 08/10/2012 6:07:42 PM Event ID: 1000 Task Category: (100) Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: toshiba-PC Description: Faulting application name: skychart.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000 Faulting module name: skychart.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0000000000012691 Faulting process id: 0x3488 Faulting application start time: 0x01cda5238d09accd Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Ciel\skychart.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\Ciel\skychart.exe Report Id: d99f0679-1116-11e2-ae82-e0ca943148cf |

I cannot reproduce the problem, all the file dialog work fine using the 2278 beta on my Windows 7 64bit. Can you get gdb_72_x64.exe and run the debug version with gdb as explained at the bottom of this page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/skychart/files/0-beta/debug I assume you run the Skychart 64bit installer, if you install the 32bit version it's OK but use gdb_72_i386.exe |

Patrick, gdb doesn't say much. This crash was when I tried to use the file selection dialog in setup->observatory->horizon->local horizon file name I'll try a few other ones and see if they all fall over in the same way. I tried a few more and they are all dieing in comctl32.dll |

Thank you for the trace. It say enough to have a better idea of the problem. The exception is raised when the dialog build the MRU list. The problem is probably related to this one: http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-devel/2012-June/029126.html http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12742 To summarizes, a Windows function raise an exception that is intended to be processed by the internal dialog, but because of the way the fpc compiler handle the exception it is wrongly reported to the application. I add this issue to the list of the specific Win64 issue I cannot solve at the moment. In the mean time you are best to install the 32bit version (skychart-3.7-2278-windows.exe) There is no problem to install the 32bit version over the 64bit without uninstalling. |
|
|
Patrick, the 32-bit version does not support running IRIDFLAR.EXE Can you make it use DOSBOX if installed on 64 bit boxes? Even if that means making the user download and install DOSBOX. Apart from that it is OK. |
|
|
You are right, the choice to use dosbox is done at the compilation time depending on the architecture. This must be done at run time and dosbox always include also in 32bit windows. This is not a problem as this is a very small file. |
|
|
revision 2279 make iridflar to run with dosbox from the win32 version running on 64bits OS. http://skychart.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/skychart?view=revision&revision=2279 |

This is fixed in beta version 3.9. |
