Crash in function: QImageData * QImageData::create(const QSize &size, QImage::Format format)

@Wenchi
It is probably your code bug rather than Qt code. I believe the screenshot shows that the d in d->nbytes is currently nullptr. try...catch won't trap it.

You need a stack trace showing where this call to QImageData::create() originates from in your code. I do not know whether crashdump.dmp can show you that. If you compile for debug and run under whatever debugger for your compiler under Windows you should be able to see that stack trace when it happens?

@Christian-Ehrlicher @JonB
Thank you for your reply！ I have updated the description of my question. Could you see whether the information is enough. Since I haven't read the book, <Advanced Windows Debugging>, I'm afraid I couldn't provide more debug infomation.

@Wenchi
So the trace shows you clicked a button and it called your CFuncToolSlamWidget::on_btn_add_clicked(). At line #263 that calls QImageReader::read(). So let's see the code around (i.e. leading up to) that line #263. We are probably particularly interested in the lifetime of the QImage you are using.

@JonB
I have already uploaded the code of function
void CFuncToolSlamWidget::on_btn_add_clicked()
to the description of the question.
And the crash line is
qImaggbk = reader.read();
Since the crash doesn't appear necessarily, I couldn't figure out why it crashed.

@Wenchi
Then it looks like QImageReader::read() does not like the content of the .png file you are trying to load. Does it happen depending on which file is chosen? Try the code with a specified filename in some standalone code outside of your project and see how it goes?

[JoeCFD]

Try to use another tool to load your image and see if the file is corrupt or has some other issues. It may be a good idea to check if read() fails or not all the time like the following:

QImage icon(64, 64, QImage::Format_RGB32);
QImageReader reader("icon_64x64.bmp");
if (reader.read(&icon)) {
    // Display icon
}

the sample code is from here:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qimagereader.html#read-1

@JonB
I've tried that before. I coded while{...} to load the picture(png), which had caused crash, for over 1 million times, but the crash didn't appear.

@JoeCFD
Thank you for your reply!
Using another tool to load image can be a way to avoid the crash, but in my situstion, the crash could appear not only in QImageReader.read() but also in several other code, such as Qlist<MyWidget>.push_back() or QStackWidget.setCurrentIndex() and so on.

Then you should fix your code.

[Wenchi]

please help！I'll lose my job if I can't fix this bug. crying

@Wenchi
How do you expect anybody to offer any further help, if your code is crashing in various places?

[Wenchi]

@JonB
Although the code is crashing in various places, the crash point is always the same:

QImageData * QImageData::create(const QSize &size, QImage::Format format) )

by the way, I'm fired. ready to get a new start

Although the code is crashing in various places, but the crash point is always the same:

But that is likely --- or just as possible --- indicating you have a problem elsewhere which only shows up here, such as corrupted/misallocated memory? How else would you explain it "crashing" in e.g. QList<MyWidget>.push_back()?

by the way, I'm fired. ready to get a new start

I am sorry to hear that, good luck for future.
