Exception on close of application only if ReportLeaks is on

Post by simpsons »

Hi,

I'm using latest madExcept 5.0.0 in an 32bit application, built with Delphi 10.3 Rio.
When I switch on ReportMemoryLeaks the application throws an exception on closing due to access violations.
Juding from the bugreport this happens when madExcept looks for leftovers in the memory.
This does NOT happen with madExcept activated but option ReportMemoryLeaks is OFF.
The bugreport is attached.
Do you need more info for this problem?

Cheers,
Stefan

compiled with : Delphi 10.3 Rio
madExcept version : 5.0.0
callstack crc : $8bda69cd, $40125df3, $a0353c6f
exception number : 1
exception class : EAccessViolation
exception message : Zugriffsverletzung bei Adresse 0040606B in Modul 'TrackTool.exe'. Lesen von Adresse 00000000.

This could have all sorts of reasons. A bug in madExcept sure is one explanation, but far from the only one. This crash not occuring without resource leaking activated doesn't prove anything, unfortunately. Different timing, different memory managers etc could all play role here. E.g. if there's a buffer overrun, it can sometimes produce crashes and sometimes it won't.

Have you tried activating "instantly crash on buffer overrun" instead of leak reporting? Does it cause any crashes?

Thanks for the tip with the buffer overrun check, haven't used that before.
madExcept found a buffer overrun when initialising one of the components in my app.
After encapsuling that with a try..except block, I finally get the memory leaks report on closing the app again.

Would be better to solve the buffer overrun instead of hiding it, of course... :D

I've reported it to the manufacturer already!
