Problem with deleting QBuffer

aiphae

That's interesting. In my code I tried to replace newHandler = new FileHandler(file.readAll(), zipFilename); with newHandler = new FileHandler(file.readAll()); (without specifying a filename). No crash now. So the issue is not in QBuffer.

zipFilename is QString zipFilename = zip.getCurrentFileName();. I don't understand what's wrong...

Please try this:

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    FileHandler* csvHandler = nullptr;
    QVector<QString> files = { "existing_file1.txt", "existing_file2.txt" };
    for (const auto& path : files) {
        QFile f(path);
        f.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly);
        auto newHandler = new FileHandler(f.readAll(), path);
        delete csvHandler;
        csvHandler = newHandler;
    }
    delete csvHandler;
    return 0;
}

In this case the error should appear.

No crash here and I also don't see a reason why it should crash.

aiphae

Well it crashes when I'm specifying path and it doesn't when I don't... It's weird.

Christian Ehrlicher

As I said before - please post the stacktrace.

This?

You are most likely mixing debug and release libs - I would guess you link your debug app against Qt release libs. This is not supported on windows due to different msvc runtimes.

Is there a workaround?

I tried this on a release version and it's working well. But what if I want to debug it?

Simple: Link you release build to Qt release libs and your app's debug build to Qt's debug libs.

How did you install Qt?
You should have them.

Yes. Apparently I was linking external release libraries instead of debug ones. The issue is solved. Thank you!
