Exit code -1073740791 (0xC0000409) when I input a string in QTextEdit

I've this function that read a text file and input the content in a QTextEdit (it works on thread mode). The problem is that if I call much times this function the IDLE return this exit code:

Process finished with exit code -1073740791 (0xC0000409)

I was reading about this exit code and is something about: "0xC0000409 means stack buffer overflow as seen in this windows help link. ... It is probable that you are writing something past the end of a buffer, or writing something to a pointer that is pointing to the wrong place."

This exite code only happens when I try to input the text in the QTextEdit, I'm 100% about this. There is a way to fix it?

Do you mean it happens in this line? Did you use debugger to check where exactly it happens? How does get_the_stdout look like if you print it to stdout?

I'm using debugger exactly now, but I not experiment with the PyCharm debugger.

This is the exacly value of the variable get_the_stdout:
