@kshegunov Thanks for the reply there is no delete in any slot.

@Anj_San said in Application crash on QEventloop::exec() on MacOs:

This is the whole stack trace.

I am pretty certain it is not. QMetaObject::activate(QObject *, int, int, void * *) can't be the call stack's root. Is threading used in this application? Please show the implementation of Contact_API_Comm::get_pending_Requests method.

[Anj_San]

@kshegunov This is my implementation:-

QJsonArray Contact_API_Comm::get_pending_Requests(QString token, QString url)
{

QUrl serviceUrl = QUrl(url);
QNetworkRequest request(serviceUrl);
request.setRawHeader("Authorization",token.toUtf8());

Networkmanager->get(request);

QObject::connect(Networkmanager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)), this,SLOT(serviceContactRequestFinished(QNetworkReply*)));
loop.exec();

disconnect(Networkmanager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)), this,SLOT(serviceContactRequestFinished(QNetworkReply*)));

    return user_contact;

}

void Contact_API_Comm::serviceContactRequestFinished(QNetworkReply *reply)
{

     QVariant Status_code = reply->attribute(QNetworkRequest::HttpStatusCodeAttribute);

    QByteArray buffer = reply->readAll();
    QJsonDocument jsonDoc(QJsonDocument::fromJson(buffer));
    qDebug() << jsonDoc;
    QJsonObject jsonReply = jsonDoc.object();
    if(Status_code.toInt() == 200)
    {
        if(jsonReply.contains("userlist"))
        {
            user_contact = jsonReply["userlist"].toArray();
        }

        if(jsonReply.contains("message")){
            message = jsonReply["message"].toString();
        }

    }
    else if(Status_code.toInt() == 422)
    {
        message = jsonReply["message"].toString();
        qDebug()<<message;

    }
   else
    {
        message = "Could not connect at the moment";
    }

reply->deleteLater();
loop.exit(0);

}

[kshegunov]

Don't use local event loops, especially where when there's no pressing need to. You're spinning the global even loop and you have no idea what events are processed in the meantime. Here's a suggestion:

QJsonArray Contact_API_Comm::get_pending_Requests(QString token, QString url)
{
    QNetworkRequest request(QUrl(url));
    request.setRawHeader("Authorization", token.toUtf8());

    QNetworkReply * reply = Networkmanager->get(request);

    QObject::connect(reply, &QNetworkReply::finished, this, std::bind(&Contact_API_Comm::serviceContactRequestFinished, this, reply));
    QObject::connect(reply, &QNetworkReply::finished, reply, &QObject::deleteLater);
}

void Contact_API_Comm::serviceContactRequestFinished(QNetworkReply *reply)
{
    QJsonArray result;
    // Read the json data into `result`

    emit contactReceived(result); //< This signal you declare yourself and connect something to it to process the data further
}

[SGaist]

Hi,

What version of macOS are you running ?

[Anj_San]

Hi @SGaist
My MacOS version is 10.14.6

[SGaist]

You seem to have a lot of QEventLoop instances spread over your code, why so many ?

[Anj_San]

I used it for API call and response. Is using too many even loop instance is a wrong?

[jsulm]

@Anj_San said in Application crash on QEventloop::exec() on MacOs:

Is using too many even loop instance is a wrong?

Yes. Use assynchronous nature of Qt like @kshegunov shown

[Anj_San]

@jsulm I have tried @kshegunov 's way but the code became more complicated and me confused.
Is there no way to save it while using qEventLoop::exec()?

[jsulm]

@Anj_San You should really learn how to use assynchronous APIs properly instead of making it synchronous with event loops all over the place.
