Segmentation fault while open a text file

? Offline

I don't think so because I saved the file with 'Application Example' and wanted to load that...

Yes, with Qt Creater.

In the error stands something like Dllnowunload
Is there a DLL missing?

I am using Windows 10 Insider. Is that the problem maybe?

Perhaps.

I thought you may have started directly and dlls are missing. However, you started from creator. There should be all in place.
AFAIK the normal file dialog from windows is started from Qt. Therefore, the dialog looks always the same as with other application on your windows.
Perhaps there is a change of the interface causing the crash. However, I know idea if this is really the case, but it looks like.

What is your idea?

@HenrikSt.

The only idea I have is trying with an official standard version of Windows 10.
I guess that MS has messed around with their dlls and something is broken for Qt and possibly other apps.

As a last resort you may try to update Qt to latest 5.8.0 version. If you are lucky it may work there.

I already suggested to use the non-native dialog. Additionally your crash is probably related to you holding a QObject in a QSharedPointer, get us the whole stack trace so we can investigate further. I advise against using QSharedPointer with QObjects exactly for this very same reason - object lifetime is uncontrollable.

He has the same effect with one of the Qt examples.

However, you are certainly right about non-native dialog.

Perhaps, but my prime culprit is the shared pointer (notice line 11 in the call stack from his screenshot).

So, have you an open file example with non native dialog?

Again, I ask you post the stack trace before digging into that. I don't think your segafault is related to the actual dialog at all, especially since you said you get it with a class from the examples. And I will raise the point again, do you use QSharedPointer and if yes how?

I don't think so that I used that

I will reset my PC. I think that the error is there. After that I will inform you!

@HenrikSt. @kshegunov is referring to the QSharedPointer referenced in the stack trace (line 11) you posted further above.

Within the debugger you can go back to a place where the mess actually started with the line in your code.

@kshegunov it is not conclusive at the moment that @HenrikSt is actually using QSharedPointer himself. It is probably somewhere deeper in other code. The next lines of the trace would be important to see.

It is not, I agree, that's why I insisted on the stack trace.

The next lines of the trace would be important to see.

I couldn't agree more, but I'm almost ready to bet my head it's a double deletion because of a QSharedPointer instance. ;)

It works now!

I reinstalled Windows 10 clean. So i think there was a problem with Qt and Windows 10 Insider Version.

Thanks a lot to all!

THis topic is now solved
