ver 0.16 crash when loading 0.15.005 project #131

Closed GeorgeBoudreau closed 3 years ago

GeorgeBoudreau commented 3 years ago

I have a large GUIslice/GUIbuilder project consisting of 13 pages with untold elements and using the alpha and number pads. the project builds when I use version 15.005 of the builder and library. When I update to version 16 of the library and builder the builder crashes when I open the project file. I tried to use the new GUIslice library with my code but it will not compile due to integration of the new keyboard code.

Not criticial but..I also noticed you cannot run builder against the guislice build examples.

@GeorgeBoudreau Sorry but the examples open fine. The crash is having a problem with fonts. What is your target platform? What op system are you using for the Builder? Paul--

Pconti31 commented 3 years ago

@GeorgeBoudreau Also, what size TFT screen is your target? Also, post any crash file from opening ex02_bld_btn_txt and zip up the GUIsliceBuilder/logs files and attach.

GeorgeBoudreau commented 3 years ago

I am using Ubuntu 18.xx , the project runs on an ESP32-devkit-C. The screen driver is TFT-eSPI ST7796 with xpt2046 touch driver. I ran builder against the ex02_bld_btn example and there were no errors with builder or arduino and it ran as expected on the ESP32. I ran builder against ex27_bld_apha and it failed the Arduino compile. I have attached builder and Arduino logs for ex27_bld_alpha as well as my project builder_logs.zip

@GeorgeBoudreau Turns out the problem with this example is with Calvin's GUIslice APIlibrary. He didn't update the examples to 0.16. Most likely a problem with ex26_bld_calc also. I deleted lines 139 to 172 in ex27_bld_alpha.ino and added at line 139

//<Keypad Callback !Start!>
//<Keypad Callback !End!>

Reopened the ex27_bld_alpha.prj , did a new code gen and it compiled and ran fine. Now back to your crash I noticed you are running java 11 which is not supported. The Builder is created with java 1.8 same as Arduino IDE. Not sure if that caused your crash or not.
If you zip your crashing *.prj file (I don't need your ino or header files), I will try and open it to see if I recreate your crash.

I also included the GUIslice.sh file. I point to the java directory inside the Arduino 1.8.13 directory. myPRJ.zip

Pconti31 commented 3 years ago

@GeorgeBoudreau Some good news. I can reproduce the crash. I'll investigate and find the problem.

GeorgeBoudreau commented 3 years ago

I did notice the fonts directories were different between 15.005 and 16.0. Are paths hardwired?

Pconti31 commented 3 years ago

Yes. Builder assumes working directory is GUIsliceBuilder and fonts inside there. No absolute paths but only relative paths are hard coded.

Pconti31 commented 3 years ago

@GeorgeBoudreau I fixed the problem. Turned out that opening a saved project with a screen size larger than 320x240 wasn't resetting the screen dimensions so we crashed. I fixed this and now also trap the exception. I'll post 0.16.b001 hot fix soon. Paul--

GeorgeBoudreau commented 3 years ago

I am using a 480x320 4" TFT display which is not that common.. a corner case. Good catch..

Pconti31 commented 3 years ago

Fixed in Hot Fix 0.16.b001

GeorgeBoudreau commented 3 years ago

Project compiles and runs ( so far ) . Fiddled with keypad size to fit my poor eyesight and all is well. Thanks.

As Paul mentioned, I had inadvertently overlooked updating the Builder examples for v0.16. These have now been updated in the core GUIslice library (v0.16.0.4).

thx
