Unsolved Why did the program crash on QDateTime?

[Tancen]

Kit: Windows 10 64bit , Qt 5.14.2 MinGW-64bit
Codes :

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);

    const int NUM = 8;
    std::thread threads[NUM];

    for (int i = 0; i < NUM; i++)
    {
        threads[i] = std::thread(
            []()
            {
                for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
                {
                    QDateTime::currentDateTime().toString("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.zzz");
                }
            });
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < NUM; i++)
    {
        if (threads[i].joinable())
            threads[i].join();
    }

    return 0;
}

Unfortunately, QCalendar currently cannot be accessed from mulltiple threads: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-84575

As you can see from your debugger's stack trace, QDateTime::toString() calls QCalendar functions, so you currently cannot call QDateTime::toString() from multiple threads.

@JKSH Thanks, I don't conscious of this is a bug.

The problem is that this bug propagates all over the place. It's not just QCalendar, it breaks QDateTime's reentrancy, which breaks the SQL driver(s) reentrancy and so on, and so on ... the possibilities are endless.
