Crash in d3d_shutdown

Edgar Reynaldo

I'm trying to build a simple app with my libraries and when it closes it always crashes in d3d_shutdown. MinGW 4.5.0 Win Vista. Does anybody know why? And what was line 2620 of d3d_disp.cpp in the allegro 5.1.7 release? That's where it crashes.

Since it crashed in d3d_shutdown I suppose it's coming from a double free.

That D"D function might not come from the same A5 version as yours though.

#SelectExpand
  1static void d3d_shutdown(void)
  2{
  3  
  4   _al_d3d_destroy_display_format_list();
  5      
  6   _al_d3d->Release();
  7   al_destroy_mutex(present_mutex);
  8   al_destroy_mutex(_al_d3d_lost_device_mutex);
  9
 10   _al_d3d_bmp_destroy();
 11
 12   FreeLibrary(_al_d3d_module);
 13   _al_d3d_module = NULL;
 14
 15   al_free(vt);
 16   vt = NULL;
 17}

Well, the crash comes and goes with changes in the code, but when it does crash, all I have done is call al_init and al_install functions (through my library). I tried to replicate it but cannot so far.

D3D binary incompatiblity maybe? I don't know what would cause a crash sometimes and not others.

If I can, I'll build allegro from git and see if I can reproduce it later. It will take a little while though.

If the crash changes based on you changing code, its memory corruption. make sure you're not stomping on anything.

I don't have any arrays, and all I was calling was some redefined virtual functions that log and call al_init_* and al_install_*. I hadn't created any displays. I made one timer, and one queue, and that's all. I destroyed the timer and the queue. It was very simple stuff.

I think there is something else behind it but I don't know what. Haven't had any more problems so far now that the code is more complicated.
