Macro error and player crash on mac

saeys

Hi folks,

I'm returning to my mac to test my app on an iOS device. Gideros player crashes immediately when I start the app (after "Uploading finished" in output). The mac error log says:

Application Specific Information:
abort() called
*** error for object 0x7f84ecf1ca30: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed.

Also, Gideros Studio reports macro errors "live" inside the code (new feature?) as if the macro wasn't defined (which it is in init.lua). Don't know if it has something to do with the player crash, but it sure shouldn't be an error, since the project/player works fine on Window 10. Using 2017.11.3 on both systems. Have checked dependencies.

Is there something I have overlooked?

(macros work in a test project on the mac, though)

Make sure you have the latest version of Gideros on the Mac, check to see it's 2017.11.3 or above.

saeys

Yes, 2017.11.3 on both win 10 and mac.

its true that the new syntax checker only parse the current file, so if macros are defined elsewhere they won't be recognized. I suppose adding a setting to dsiable syntax checker would be good, no ?

About your player crash, is it with stock Gideros Player for iOS (from 2017.11.3) or from a custom player ?

saeys

Stock Gideros Player i guess, updated it today.

saeys

Player doesn't crash when playing a example project, so it has something to do with my project. Still, it also seems to be a mac issue since the same project works on windows.

I am asking because in 2017.11.3 stock iOS player would fail to compile (EAGLView.m needs a line commented out)

saeys

Actually, it's Gideros Player for macOS (High Sierra), not iOS. ☺ Sorry about that.

Should I try to revert to an earlier version?

hgy29

oh, so same source code as win player. Do you get a meaningful stack trace ?

saeys

I'll send a PM...

saeys

Issue (macOS player crash) fixed in 2018.1, thanks @hgy29 !

I think everything is negligible, operation is not simple. All must be operated to recognize the error..............

Eh?
