CAD-3.28.2.2 crashes

[sagitter]

QCAD-3.28.2.2 is crashing in Fedora 38+ with this error:

Code: Select all

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Tools::IllegalArgumentException'

Thread 1 "qcad-bin" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
__pthread_kill_implementation (threadid=<optimized out>, signo=signo@entry=6, no_tid=no_tid@entry=0) at pthread_kill.c:44

44            return INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERROR_P (ret) ? INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERRNO (ret) : 0;        

If you can, install QCAD from Fedora 38 repository, run it and try to add a simple line; qcad will crash in some seconds.

Hi,

First, QCAD-3.28.2.2 is a snapshot release, stable releases end in point zero.
Second, what with the official release? If that runs fine then I think you need to contact the repository manager.
(But you or someone else already did that on 2023-11-07 17:57 UTC, probably it is you that is the assignee)

Further, I wonder how you sourced the snapshot.
On the download page, at the bottom, section: QCAD Community Edition Source Code

• QCAD Source: v3.28.2.0.zip

I can only refer to Andrew's reply what should sound familiar to you:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic. ... 820#p27820

I would stick to official releases.

Hi CVH

First, where QCAD-3.28.2.2 is spread as snapshot?
Here? No.
Here? No.

The date of release 3.28.2.2 is the same of the 3.28.2 one, so what is the snapshot and what is the stable release?

Second, the repository manager is me and i saying that your snapshot is crashing for some reason, does anyone interest this?

[andrew]

sagitter: Please use only x.x.x.0 tags for releases as these have been tested on all major platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) with Qt 5 (and Qt 6 where applicable).

The QCAD ecosystem is much larger than its open source core and we use the x.x.x.[1-9] tags across dozens of repositories for releases that often target a single platform / customer / Qt version.

[sagitter]

Okay Andrew. Thank you.

QCAD-3.28.2.0 is crashing at the same way of 3.28.2.2
The 3.27.9.0 works fine.

Do you want to try it?

First, where QCAD-3.28.2.2 is spread as snapshot?

As far as I know official snapshots are: A) No longer announced; B) Available for Pro licence users in their private download area.

These snapshots never have failed big time and in most cases newer code or patches will live on in further releases.
Or as in the case 3.27.9 >> 3.28.0 the Library Browser was retired for CE and replaced by one for the Pro version.
There is no certainty that all this is bug free but major bug's are handled as soon as they are detected/reported.
e.g:
-> https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=9588
The extreme lag in 3.27.7 originated from chopping 480 arcs in 158 line segments each resulting in a hatch boundary defined by 76324 segments.
-> https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic. ... 374#p42574
The crash was reproducible and that should be fixed for the next release/snapshot.
-> ...

And then there are still non-critical practical bug's unrelated to newer releases, filed several, some included a fix.

so what is the snapshot and what is the stable release?

As in my reply and confirmed by Andrew these end in point zero.

QCAD-3.28.2.0 is crashing at the same way of 3.28.2.2
The 3.27.9.0 works fine.

Noop, I can not agree, many users updated to 3.28.x and many even use the 3.28.2.2 snapshot.
I even installed QCAD/CAM 3.28.2 trial aside for the crash mentioned above: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic. ... 374#p42574
Works just fine on my ancient 32 bit Win7 PC but it remains a limited QCAD/CAM trial.

And then I refer to official releases or snapshots for a specific OS, a specific CPU, with dedicated Qt and/or other specifics.
Under All Downloads there are 21 choices listed: https://www.ribbonsoft.com/en/download

Have you even tried to install the official release on your system before saying that it fails big time?
This should be as easy as downloading the correct Pro trial version for your system and remove some files.
See: https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=4668
Did that for this topic, takes about 8min and it works just fine ... Limited as it is only the CE version.
Maybe that is the best way to include it in the repository ... ?

IMHO the compilation from sources failed.
Shot in the dark: If QCAD does startup as you say but fails for executing a command ... What if you startup in debug mode.
Would that tell more than: "received signal SIGABRT, Aborted."?

As last I can only refer to a reply of Andrew, way back in 2019:
https://www.qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic. ... 477#p25477

Done right now, it's working.

Maybe that is the best way to include it in the repository ... ?

No; i can't include precompiled libraries and software in Fedora.

IMHO the compilation from sources failed.

Me too, at this point. Searching in my build log i found these lines:

and i suspect that unbundling spatialindex-1.9.1 in your source code archive (in favour of the spatialindex-1.9.3 from Fedora repositories) is a bad idea. I recompiled QCAD-3.28.2.0 with bundled spatialindex-1.9.1, it's correctly executed now.

and i suspect that unbundling spatialindex-1.9.1 in your source code archive (in favour of the spatialindex-1.9.3 from Fedora repositories) is a bad idea. I recompiled QCAD-3.28.2.0 with bundled spatialindex-1.9.1, it's correctly executed now.

Fine for you but remember that it is not my source code archive.
As simple QCAD user I was just replying to the title 'CAD-3.28.2.2 crashes' what is untrue.
That is, official releases do not as you just agreed on.

Dug a little deeper and it seems that all your 25 posts are related to Fedora.
You got your answer about what are stable releases back in 2020:

x.x.x.0 are stable releases

And another quote:

We are unable to provide support for compiling / using QCAD CE, but feel free to discuss QCAD CE issues at the dedicated forum at:
https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewforum.php?f=76

And then I think Andrew refers to issues when using QCAD CE.

With this I think that everything is said.
