[FIXED] Retrieving something from an Array crash on Linux

I made a very simple test.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<ZApplication Name="App" Caption="ZGameEditor application" FileVersion="2">
  <OnLoaded>
    <ZExpression>
      <Expression>
<![CDATA[//
Names[0]="MOON";
Names[1]="PLANET";
trace(Names[0]);]]>
      </Expression>
    </ZExpression>
  </OnLoaded>
  <Content>
    <Array Name="Names" Type="2" SizeDim1="2"/>
  </Content>
</ZApplication>
On Windows, "trace(Names[0]);" returns MOON.

But on Linux, it crashes:
An unhandled exception occurred at $00000000004018E7:
EAccessViolation: Access violation
$00000000004018E7

It works with array full of int, but not with arrays full of strings:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<ZApplication Name="App" Caption="ZGameEditor application" FileVersion="2">
  <OnLoaded>
    <ZExpression>
      <Expression>
<![CDATA[//
Numbers[0]= 0;
Numbers[1]= 1;

Names[0]="MOON";
Names[1]="PLANET";

trace(intToStr(Numbers[0]));
trace(Names[0]);]]>
      </Expression>
    </ZExpression>
  </OnLoaded>
  <Content>
    <Array Name="Numbers" Type="1" SizeDim1="2"/>
    <Array Name="Names" Type="2" SizeDim1="2"/>
  </Content>
</ZApplication>

That is very strange. I don't have an explanation for this yet.

It could be something 64-bit specific but your example is working fine here on 64-bit windows.

Array of float, byte and vec works too.
But array of model crashes.

I didn't try xptr and mat4.

How did you test this exactly?

I started with directly tracing "ArrayModel[0].ModelNumber" yesterday, but in fact, "model m = ArrayModel[0]" is working. So it's not directly array of models that crashes.

I still can't figure it out. Do you have any way to try this on Linux 32-bit?

I have the old i386 ready. It's working on it.

I can also test it on raspberry by flashing a new 32bits OS on a card, but I'll do that after lunch, as I need to setup everything.

(And I'll test on the same rasp with the 64bits OS too)

Please try this code on the crashing system and tell me what it outputs:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<ZApplication Name="App" Caption="ZGameEditor application" FileVersion="2">
  <OnLoaded>
    <ZExpression>
      <Expression>
<![CDATA[model[1] arr;

model m = createModel(Model);
arr[0]=m;
trace( intToStr(reinterpret_cast<int>(m)) );
m.ModelNumber = 1;

m = arr[0]; // ok
trace( intToStr(reinterpret_cast<int>(m)) );
trace(intToStr(m.ModelNumber)); // crash]]>

Here's the result on linux x86_64:

Code: Select all

Please try passing "-gl" option to Freepascal when building binary. That should hopefully make it display line number and source file when it shows the EAccessViolation: Access violation error.

I didn't know I could build a debug version of Player_linux.bin :o
So the fault is coming from line 2849 of ZExpressions.pas

Interesting. And what if you run the string array example instead, where does it crash?

Re: Retrieving something from an Array crash on Linux

I verified several times that I had everything right:
- Clean download of recent ZGE code
- Built Player_linux.bin for x86_64 debug

Your previous test still gives the same result, but test with array full of strings doesn't return a line number. Just:

Code: Select all

An unhandled exception occurred at $0000000000402A27:
EAccessViolation: Access violation
  $0000000000402A27

...
But I got better information of the crash thanks to the Raspberry aarch64:

Your test:

Code: Select all

-1825435264
-1825435264
An unhandled exception occurred at $0000000000446210:

My test with array of string:

What about a even simpler test:

Code: Select all

string s="moon";

trace(s);
All times are UTC
