So if I interpret the crash happens during the display of the scaled-down preview in the upper left (cute feature BTW!), and within some QT GL-routine(?)...
Just to be sure - did you do a full clean build from scratch, or use some old(er) CMake cache?
FYI, I am also looking at it, and that "cute feature--upper left preview" is actually some kind of bug I'm chasing down, perhaps a clue to the crashes.
I never programmed that, and it didn't happen previously :/
Unfortunately, I'm having issues with my build environment on my mac, so it may be a bit until I can fix that and then start debugging.
Full clean build from nothing. I deleted ~/Projects and started over: same crash with any .fits file. The bt suggests:
home/steve/Projects/kstars/kstars/fitsviewer/stretch.cpp:321
Had something to do with it,but I'm not a coder...
Thanks for your time everyone.
To reproduce the crash:
1. Open a . fits file in fitsviewer
2. Move one of the three sliders at the bottom of the fitsviewer window.
result: kstars crashes
I found a (my) bug the fitsview code, and submitted a change for Jasem's review. phabricator.kde.org/D26910
I'm not sure that this is causing the crashes, I wasn't able to reproduce them,
but I suppose it's possible. It does, however, clear up the "cute feature--upper left preview"
Steve: once this is submitted (after Jasem's review), please retest. I'll post here when I see that it's in the latest kstars code.
Sorry about that,
Hy
It is now submitted, so if you git pull and compile, you'll have the fix.
Not sure when it gets to the nightly release? A day or so?
Please test and let me know.
