Segmentation fault when painting a png in updatePaintNode() using QSGTexture

@mxyn said in Segmentation fault when painting a png in updatePaintNode() using QSGTexture:

it throws a segmentation fault

Where exactly?

[mxyn]

I updated my previous code so you can see where debug "t8" get's printed. It seems to seg fault after exiting the function.

[jsulm]

@mxyn Please show stack trace after the crash

@mxyn said in Segmentation fault when painting a png in updatePaintNode() using QSGTexture:

QImage img("pics/RadarCarSmall5.png"); // create texture
QSGTexture * t = window()->createTextureFromImage(img);

I'm wondering why you're doing this everytime you paint? This can be done once.

[mxyn]

I would love to! ... How do I pull up the backtrace? I know how to run gdb.... and then backtrace. Is this what you are asking for?

@jsulm Short answer is that I'm just trying to get one item on the screen for now. So I figured it's okay to plop this code in while I'm trying to get a handle on how QSGTexture is drawn.

Long answer, I'm drawing radar blips that will be moving across the screen. Each blip will be a different color, and the number of blips may go up or down. It is all represented in a model list that contains the colors and the coords of the blips. The model list will also be growing or shrinking with the number of blips I need to draw. So I plan to have each blip mapped to a node, and create this node from scratch each time. This is probably not the most efficient way to do it. I just started learning updatePaintNode() stuff 2 days ago. I would love to hear if you have a better idea on how to take advantage of the batch processing power of updatePaintNode().

In fact I had made another post hereasking people to give me their opinion on how to make another updatePaintNode() implementation better.

QSGTexture * t = window()->createTextureFromImage(img);
QSGOpaqueTextureMaterial *testM = new QSGOpaqueTextureMaterial;

Check for null on anything that is returning a pointer and see if something is failing to be created.

[mxyn]

@fcarney I tested for NULL, and none of these debugs printed out. meaning the vars aren't null

QImage img("pics/RadarCarSmall5.png");                   // create texture
QSGTexture * t = window()->createTextureFromImage(img);

if(img.isNull())
  qdebug("img is null");

if( t == NULL)
  qDebug( "t is null");

QSGOpaqueTextureMaterial *testM = new QSGOpaqueTextureMaterial;
testM.setTexture(t);
if( testM == NULL )
  qDebug("testM is NULL);

But I do suspect SOMETHING must be wrong with my texture... Not sure what though...

I decided to create a SIMPLE project in QTCreator to try to zero in on what's broken in the code. This code draws a triangle and then a rectangle. I tried setting the rectangle material to red. It worked! It tried setting the rectangle material to a texture, it failed! The guilty lines are:
//test->setMaterial(m2); // makes a red rectangle
test->setMaterial(tm); // nothing gets drawn

I'm hoping someone could try this code on their QTCreator and see if they have the same problem?

I found the problem. I should not be using QSGGeometryNode. I should be using QSGSimpleTextureNode.

   QSGSimpleTextureNode *test = new QSGSimpleTextureNode;
    QImage img;
    bool state = img.load(":/scenegraph/customgeometry/radarcar.png");
    QSGTexture * t =  window()->createTextureFromImage(img);
    test->setTexture(t);
    test->setRect(10, 10, 30, 30);

[BilbonSacquet]

QSGGeometry * geo2 = new QSGGeometry(QSGGeometry::defaultAttributes_Point2D(), 4); // create geometry

The crash is due to the 2D point which is not enough to hold the texture, the call with QSGGeometry::defaultAttributes_TexturedPoint2D() (QSGGeometry::TexturedPoint2D) will solve the issue.
