MSVC++ 2009, Win32, Unexplained Crashing/Errors

[tylerp9p]

Hello there,

I am a tad new to the CEGUI world, but have been programming C++ for quite a while. I am presently working on a game project utilizing an OpenGL-based Renderer (Leadwerks Engine).

I have been attempting to implement CEGUI, but am continuously held up by crashes that exist regardless of whether I compile in Debug, Release, or static variants thereof. Also, even when using the debug libraries, no symbols are ever loaded into the call stack, and I have to trace through disassembly and breakpoints to determine the cause.

This is the code of my class that is causing the issue:

Code: Select all

#include "CUIManager.h"

bool CUIManager::Initialize()
{
   // GUI
   try
   {
      mRenderer = new CEGUI::OpenGLRenderer(1024, 800, 600);
      mSystem = new CEGUI::System(mRenderer);

      //using CEGUI::UVector2;
      
      //glPixelStoref(0x806E, 0); // GL_UNPACK_IMAGE_HEIGHT
      //glPixelStoref(GL_PACK_ROW_LENGTH, 0);
      //glPixelStoref(GL_UNPACK_ROW_LENGTH, 0);
   
      // initialise the required dirs for the DefaultResourceProvider
      CEGUI::DefaultResourceProvider* rp = static_cast<CEGUI::DefaultResourceProvider*>
         (CEGUI::System::getSingleton().getResourceProvider());

      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("schemes", "datafiles/schemes/");
      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("imagesets", "datafiles/imagesets/");
      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("fonts", "datafiles/fonts/");
      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("layouts", "datafiles/layouts/");
      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("looknfeels", "datafiles/looknfeel/");
      rp->setResourceGroupDirectory("lua_scripts", "datafiles/lua_scripts/");

      // Set the default resource groups to be used      
      CEGUI::Imageset::setDefaultResourceGroup("imagesets");
      CEGUI::Font::setDefaultResourceGroup("fonts");
      CEGUI::Scheme::setDefaultResourceGroup("schemes");
      CEGUI::WidgetLookManager::setDefaultResourceGroup("looknfeels");
      CEGUI::WindowManager::setDefaultResourceGroup("layouts");
      CEGUI::ScriptModule::setDefaultResourceGroup("lua_scripts");

      // load in the scheme file, which auto-loads the TaharezLook imageset
      CEGUI::SchemeManager::getSingleton().loadScheme( "TaharezLook.scheme" );

      // load in a font.  The first font loaded automatically becomes the default font.
      //if(! CEGUI::FontManager::getSingleton().isFontPresent( "Commonwealth-10" ) )
      //  CEGUI::FontManager::getSingleton().createFont( "Commonwealth-10.font" );
      
      mSystem->setDefaultFont( "Commonwealth-10" );
      mSystem->setDefaultMouseCursor( "TaharezLook", "MouseArrow" );
      mSystem->setDefaultTooltip( "TaharezLook/Tooltip" );

      mWindowManager = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingletonPtr();
      CEGUI::Window* myRoot = mWindowManager->createWindow( "DefaultWindow", "root" );
      mSystem->setGUISheet( myRoot );

      CEGUI::FrameWindow* fWnd = (CEGUI::FrameWindow*)mWindowManager->createWindow( "TaharezLook/FrameWindow", "testWindow" );
   
      myRoot->addChildWindow( fWnd );

      // position a quarter of the way in from the top-left of parent.
      fWnd->setPosition( CEGUI::UVector2( CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ), CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ) ) );

      // set size to be half the size of the parent
      fWnd->setSize( CEGUI::UVector2( CEGUI::UDim( 0.5f, 0 ), CEGUI::UDim( 0.5f, 0 ) ) );

      fWnd->setText( "Hello World!" );
   }
   catch(CEGUI::Exception & e)
   {
      printf("CEGUI Error: %s\n", e.getMessage().c_str());
      return false;
   }

   return true;
}

void CUIManager::Render()
{
   //glPixelStoref(0x806E, 0); // GL_UNPACK_IMAGE_HEIGHT
   //glPixelStoref(GL_PACK_ROW_LENGTH, 0);
   //glPixelStoref(GL_UNPACK_ROW_LENGTH, 0);
   mSystem->renderGUI();
}


I have traced the problem, via breakpoints, to occuring at/after:

Code: Select all

CEGUI::SchemeManager::getSingleton().loadScheme( "TaharezLook.scheme" );


The exception is an Access Violation Exception. My CEGUI Log, which also remains the same regardless of compile setting, is:

I also found that I have to import additional libraries to even get the program to compile, that I didn't see in the example/sample projects. My final dependency list is:

Code: Select all

winmm.lib
freetype_d.lib
glu32.lib
opengl32.lib
freeglut_d.lib
pcre_d.lib
CEGUIBase_d.lib
CEGUIExpatParser_d.lib
expat_d.lib CEGUITGAImageCodec_d.lib
CEGUISILLYImageCodec_d.lib
SILLY_d.lib
CEGUIDevILImageCodec_d.lib
CEGUIFreeImageImageCodec_d.lib
CEGUICoronaImageCodec_d.lib
OpenGLGUIRenderer_d.lib
CEGUITinyXMLParser_d.lib
CEGUIXercesParser_d.lib
CEGUIFalagardWRBase_d.lib


The above is debug, and if in static mode I just define CEGUI_STATIC and swap to the "_Static" libraries.

And in Release:

Code: Select all

winmm.lib
opengl32.lib
glu32.lib
freetype.lib
pcre.lib
CEGUIBase.lib

CEGUIFreeImageImageCodec.lib
CEGUICoronaImageCodec.lib
OpenGLGUIRenderer.lib
CEGUIFalagardWRBase.lib


Again, I have no idea why this is occuring, I assume it could possibly be something with XML, because a few days ago in initial tests, there were 1 or 2 symbols for XML Calls, but they were fixed by linking the XML module libraries.

To note, I am using the Visual Studio 2008 Professional IDE, with MSVC++ 9.0 Compiler. I am using the 2008/9.0 binary pack for the libraries of CEGUI.

I would appreciate any help at all, as this is the only thing holding up development progress.

Many Thanks,

I was able to trace the stack more closely, and found that the crash occurs after this line in CEGUISingleton.h, Line 79:

Code: Select all

        {  assert( ms_Singleton );  return ( *ms_Singleton );  }


I found that as the result of Stepping Into the line I found that led to the crash:

Code: Select all

CEGUI::SchemeManager::getSingleton().loadScheme( "TaharezLook.scheme" );


Hopefully someone can make more sense of that then me, but it seems like the SchemeManager Singleton was never created?

Even more self notes:

If I use WindowsLook instead, it doesn't crash, atleast, it doesn't crash in STATIC mode. If I compile in non-static mode, all schemes crash it.

In static with WindowsLook, it actually writes the errors out to the log:

25/08/2009 19:24:37 (Error)   Imageset::load - loading of Imageset from file 'WindowsLook.imageset' failed.


Maybe I could set it to use something other then Corona?

[tylerp9p]

I tried every other image codec with a module, and only Corona got far enough to log the errors. All of the other image codecs just lead to the same error I had before, the crash on the loadScheme line.

Hi Tyler,

Could it be that it's just not finding the .scheme file? Might be a resource/path issue.

To make the cegui logger more informative

Code: Select all

CEGUI::Logger::getSingleton().setLoggingLevel(CEGUI::Informative);

might save you some time.

Finally, I'm pretty sure you can't have two .schemes loaded at the same time, (apologies if you aren't actually doing this).

It clearly seems to be able to load the .scheme fine, it is the TGA Texture that is failing.

[tylerp9p]

Not sure what changed now, but I switched over to including libs according to how Demo 7 is doing it, and the log is now a bit different, and I am back to crashing on the line of CEGUI::System::getSingleton.loadScheme("WindowsLook.scheme")

[CrazyEddie]

Ok. The first thing I can say is that you should not link against all the image codec libs - just link against the one you're actually intending to use. I know our samples link against all of them but it's an error.

The TGA only codec is not much use since some of the files we use now are png files
The Corona library has issues loading some TGA files (based upon my previous tests, and as seen in your reports above).
The SILLY, FreeImage or DevIL libraries should all work fine, though - to reiterate - just pick one and only link with that, not the others also.

I think the one bit of info you didn't post was a debug callstack/backtrace (though I think with the SDKs there's no symbols? Is that right?!), I'm fairly certain that it's dying when loading the image files for the Imageset(s) in the scheme - cleanup the linking, use one of the three 'good' libraries mentioned, and let us know if you still get issues.

CE.

Also, you would be correct about the lack of symbols in the SDK. A bit of a pain actually.

Thanks for reporting back.

I have run a test using the vc9 SDK and your code (just added some stuff that uses glut to initialise the app window and GL context). I can report that the app (and therefore your linked libs etc) ran fine.

So, a couple of questions:
1) Have you already initialised the OpenGL context in some way (such as via glut, via some other library or directly with Win32 APIs)? This is essential; CEGUI can not do this for you.
2) In your header there you're testing the macro '_DEBUG_' is this defined in your project for the debug build? I ask because for Win32 the usual macro checked is '_DEBUG'.

Yes, the macros are defined in the preprocessor section of the project compiler settings per configuration.

OpenGL is indeed initialized properly. No problems occur due to the renderer, and I can actually load imagesets, fonts, etc. But when it needs to load an actual texture, it seems to crash.

[tylerp9p]

Quick question CE:

In your app, what were the project settings, etc. I am thinking I may just try and compile the CEGUI source directly into the game.

[tylerp9p]

Integrating the source was a stupid mistake and completely ridiculous to attempt. I simply compiled CEGUI from source on VS 2008 to make sure everything was right, and I still get the same exact errors. Using Expat, OpenGL, and SILLY.

And even in debug mode there are no symbols...why is that?

[tylerp9p]

I stack traced this entire thing manually with breakpoints, until I could no longer step into functions farther.

Ultimately, it crashes on a call to XML_Parse, when parsing the WindowsLook.imageset file. Line 69 of Expat's CPP file.

[CrazyEddie]

It will almost certainly be dying in the image loading part of imageset loading. If you want to go 'deeper' still in the debugger set breakpoints in the CEGUIImageset_xmlHander.cpp file, this way you can break into the actual xml parsing process.

It definitely 'feels' like a project configuration issue. What kind of project settings do you have? Which runtime are you linking against? Have you customised any other settings at all in your project?

CE.
