crash with Windows 10 and Public Build 2015.2646

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases
#21

For the crashes, were there any messages in your command window that opened in the background?

We have made quite a few updates to transitions since 2646.  I suspect the scale can’t be 0, is to prevent a divide by 0 issue and is probably just a warning.

#22

HI Rob,  the command window never opened up.

The scale wasn’t zero, it was .10, the thing is, after the transition the code

timer.performWithDelay(1500, function() relocateplayer() end, 1)

never executed.

Thanks, Greg

#23

Do you get the same behaviors with 27xx on Windows 7?

Generally if a line of code doesn’t happen, there was probably a fault that stopped that block of code. We would need to see the error. I know you said it was an error about not being zero, but there is usually a full back trace with an error message. We need the error copy/pasted, not hand typed.

If you can reproduce the error, it would be helpful.

#24

I didn’t try any 27xx versions on Windows 7 yet.  I’ll get to that this week.

Also, I’ll get the full error for you, that was just an example where the interpreter stopped executing on a transition, the ship shrunk and the call to relocate player never happened, so you were turned into a dot, albeit a powerful one :) 

Corona didn’t crash, the app was still running, just the behavior became screwier and screwier.

Thanks, Greg

#25

In Lua when there is a runtime error, the block that is currently executing. Other things will still run, like a button that executes a different function. So finding out what the runtime errors can help us track the problem.

If you go back to Windows 10, can you try some of the sample apps?

#27

HI Rob, I will get back to do some testing with Windows 10 as soon as StellarTrek is stabilized again!

Thanks, Greg

#28

I have the same problem with 2646. I tried running a number of samples, and SimplePool crashes immediately, in case that helps you pin down the bug.

#29

Everyone,

The last release version of Corona (build #2646) will crash on the *release version* of Windows 10 if your app uses MP3 files.  We’ve resolved this issue in daily build #2682.

It’s technically a bug in the release version of Windows 10’s DirectX audio decoders.  As in it wouldn’t crash with the beta versions of Windows 10.  But that’s life for you.  :stuck_out_tongue:
