[Solved]Problem with svn 12446
« on: May 11, 2021, 04:55:08 pm »
When I try to create a new project, my C::B svn 12446 crashes :
I open C::B normally, then File/New/Project... : crash.
when looking in the RPT file, it seems it's somewhere in sqstd_rex_getsubexp
may be related to svn 12332 or one of the following patches!

I can't reproduce here. If I put a breakpoint in sqstd_rex_getsubexp() and follow your steps it is not reached, and there is no crash (with or without breakpoint).

My configuration is the same as yours, but I am using 32 bits.

EDIT: I've tested on Windows 7, tonight I will check on Windows 10.

Are you sure you've done a clean rebuild of everything?

I think so. Before build, I also cleaned totally the devel31_64 directory.
I'll do this again, just to be sure ...

...I've deleted the "out-of-bound" discussion to close the moderator report.
Once all have calm-down, start again your Q&A. And always take it easy... 8)

My 2 cents: If you build C::B yourself you should have a debug build. So if you run that (in the develXX folder), the crash handler will provide information about code lines.
However, what confuses me is that the crash seems related to sorting a UI control. Why does Squirrel kick-in at all?
And also, am I getting it right that it works on Win10 and not on Win7? Anybody here with the same crash on Wind10?

Works for me on W10 (compiled in 32 and 64 bits) and W7 (compiled in 32 bits). I have not tested W7-64.

I think it's a problem in relation with the gcc version on Windows. With gcc 8.1, 64 bits, as used by Killerbot or M. Gimenez, it's OK.
I use myself gcc 10.3, in mingw64 (so 64 bits) included with msys2 distribution. I had already some problems with this (but gcc 10.2) : problem with .chm files (now solved) or problem in filent.c (patch proposed in ticket 1086, but still not integrated in official version because need some verifications with other compilers) apparently caused by a wrong length of some pointers. gcc 8.1 seems to have no problems with this (but I think there is an error), but gcc 10.3 is more strict with that may be.
I'm triing to compile C::B in different configurations to try to better understand what happens.

Well : here are two new RPT files.
The first one is compiled with giving -g as cb_release_type value. The second one by simply giving a space in that value (so no optimisations). My previous rpt was obtained with -O2.
Looking in those new versions, I see that the error does not seem to come from the same part of code, but from a sort.
More, in the -g version, I see a pointer to a wxIntPtr, but I'm not able to determine if it has the right length (a right click on it in newfromtemplatedlg.cpp does not give me it's declaration, though I suppose it's in wx/types.h). But those files are not recent, so I don't see why it's a problem now, and not before may 9th !

Please use a debugger.
Also for unoptimized builds please use -g -O0. Looking at builds which doesn't have -g is a waste of time.
The I'm not 100% what are default optimization levels in GCC, so I wouldn't count on them being unoptimized/debugable.

I continued my investigations by triing a few compilers, particularly those found on winlibs.
The last version which gives me a working C::B version (at least for this problem), even for svn 12446, is : build version gcc-10.2.0-mingw-w64-8.0.0-r5.
Starting with build version gcc-10.2.0-mingw-w64-8.0.0-r6, I have problems, even with older svn version of C::B. So the problem does not come from squirrel update.
The only difference between these 2 versions concern Gnu Binutils : switch from 2.35.1 to 2.36.
This was also with these versions I had a previous problem (solved for me in filent.c and discussed in https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,24363.msg166172.html#msg166172).
Problem exist also with gcc 11.1 as found on winlibs, but also with gcc 10.3 as found with msys2.
I hope this will give some clues to debug C::B by itself. But this is for C::B gurus, not for me  :(

I also tried the new TDM compiler version based on gcc 10.3 in 64 bits. The problem is the same. No differences if I use svn 12458.
More, the executable codeblocks.exe is considered as containing a virus by my McAfee antivirus software >:(. A false positive, surely. Though I can tell McAfee to ignore this file, it's annoying.
I also tried to debug C::B, but without success : I can't identify the real problem :-[

Looks like memory layout in Squirrel is flaky, see ticket 1102
You can try adding -fno-strict-aliasing to the Squirrel target.

I have added  -fno-strict-aliasing to the Squirrel target. Effectively, less warnings during the build (a full rebuild), but it's not sufficient: the problem is still there :(

Are you still using rev 12446? There were major problems with the new squirrel binding API which I've since fixed.
Have you tried to build the latest trunk?

I use now svn 12458 (as told in reply #14), but this does not change anything for this specific problem. RPT file is the same (except for addresses).

If you look also in my reply #13, you can see that the problem is not recent, and was already there before the new squirrel rewrite.

I have been able to reproduce the crash with the source from https://github.com/obfuscated/codeblocks_sf and it is crashing in the same spot as my RPT file looks like the same as post#11's codeblocks-g.RPT. The version is reporting as svn-r12459.

My debugging shows the crash occurs in the in the SortTemplates() function in the \src\sdk\newfromtemplatedlg.cpp file, but the problem is hard to debug as the variables are wxWidget data types and are not shown in a readable format in the watch window. I have got the wxwidget pretty printing to work, but it is missing some of the structures... More work!!!!!

It looks like there may be some GCC bug as I have added a bunch of logging, but it does not work as my first line "if (data1->pt)" causes a crash. If I set a breakpoint on the line and watch the data1->pt is shows "Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffffd90246c0". When watching data1 is is also pointing to 0xffffffffd90246c0.

I suspect a GCC issue. Anyone got any ideas or any pointers on what to try next?

When I modify the newfromtemplatedlg.cpp the following is the relevant biuld log output:

If I comment out the "list->SortItems(SortTemplates, (wxIntPtr)0);" line then the wizard is shown. I have not done any testing on the wizard to see if it works or not.

Your .rpt file is similar to mine published in reply #11.
As you, I can say that the "official" nighly version published by killerbot works as it should. But, that quite normal, because the problem appears with last gcc compiler's version (after january/february 2021). As the nightly is compiled with gcc 8.1 (a 3 years old version), it is not concerned by this bug.
This bug appears only for windows and 64 bits compilers.
So, is it a gcc problem or a codeblocks one, that's not obvious : new gcc versions are more strict on pointers apparently. I tried to use the same approach than the one I have found for filent.c, but without success until now.

I can reproduce this with gcc 11.1, but I'm not sure it is the compiler. Somehow the data items gets corrupted when they get to the sort function. Investigating.
