On Windows 7, gInterpreter->GetCurrentMacroName() crashes

Salomon · September 19, 2018, 1:20pm

Hello,

My goal is to test a simple script on Windows: get_name.cpp (81 Bytes).

After downloading root_v6.14.02.win32.vc15.debug.zip, I followed the instructions given in https://root.cern.ch/content/release-61402 to load ROOT environment.

In a Microsoft Visual Studio Prompt, I entered the following commands:


**********************************************************************
** Visual Studio 2017 Developer Command Prompt v15.7.6

**********************************************************************

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community>C:\URANIE\tools\root6.14.02_debug\bin\thisroot.bat

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community>cd C:\URANIE\ManualTests\11975

C:\URANIE\ManualTests\11975>root -l get_name.cpp
root [0]
Processing get_name.cpp...
C:\URANIE\ManualTests\11975\get_name.cpp

Then a window told me root.exe stopped. And I was invited to debug it with Visual Studio 2017.

Visual Studio was launched. And the uncaught exception message was:

Exception non gérée à 0x777EE466 (ntdll.dll) dans root.exe : 0xC0000005 : Violation d'accès lors de la lecture de l'emplacement 0x0A70B42C. a eu lieu
which is about an Access violation reading a location.

Here is an excerpt from the machine code:

I’ll try with 6.14/02 and let you know…

Salomon · September 19, 2018, 1:34pm

OK. Thank you very much.

bellenot · September 19, 2018, 1:40pm

OK, so 6.14.02 doesn’t work, but 6.14.04 does. Can you try?

Salomon · September 19, 2018, 2:18pm

Thank you for your investigation.

Here is the result of the test with ROOT 6.14/04:

As before, a window popped up telling root.exe stopped. Then I asked to quit the program.
However, the printed filename is correct.

bellenot · September 19, 2018, 2:24pm

OK, so it’s better, even if it works differently on your computer. Which version of Windows do you use?
(And BTW, don’t forget it’s a preview release. More bug fixes will come…)

bellenot · September 19, 2018, 2:28pm

P.S. you can also start root in the debugger by typing:

devenv /debugexe root.exe -l get_name.cpp

Salomon · September 19, 2018, 2:34pm

OK. Thank you.
My platform is Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bits SP1.

bellenot · September 19, 2018, 2:37pm

OK, I’m on Windows 10, so it’s maybe the reason (yes that makes a difference… )

pamputt · September 20, 2018, 8:17am

ROOT6 is not supposed to work on Windows 64-bits

bellenot · September 20, 2018, 8:23am

The 32 bit version of ROOT 6 works just fine on Windows 64 bit.

Salomon · October 3, 2018, 9:28am

Hello,

tl;dr: I compiled ROOT 6.14/04 from sources but the test still fails.

After downloading https://root.cern.ch/download/root_v6.14.04.source.tar.gz, I untar the archive to C:\URANIE\tools\root-6.14.04. Then from a build directory, I launched CMake configuration:

C:\URANIE\tools\root-6.14.04_build>cmake.exe ..\root-6.14.04 -DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES="Release"^
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="C:\URANIE\tools\root-6.14.04_install_release"^
[...]

The ROOT solution was opened with Visual Studio 2017 (v15.7.6):

C:\URANIE\tools\root-6.14.04_build_release>start ROOT.sln

The targets ALL_BUILD and INSTALL were successfully built:

[...]
396>------ Début de la génération : Projet : ALL_BUILD, Configuration : Release Win32 ------
========== Génération : 396 a réussi, 0 a échoué, 0 mis à jour, 0 a été ignoré ==========

========== Génération : 212 a réussi, 0 a échoué, 185 mis à jour, 0 a été ignoré ==========

But the test failed:
