Macro Access Violation / pointer crash

iamlamprey

I've been experiencing some weird intermittent crashes, debug symbols (and some help from mr GPT) seem to point to the Macro Control Handler.

I currently depend on Macros pretty heavily (XY pad with buttons to randomize all of the other UI elements and connect them randomly to macros etc), and I know it's an older implementation.

I'm already using deferCallbacks and I've tried putting these on a background worker but they still crash

Is there something better I should be switching to? Specifically for Rhapsody instruments (iirc vst doesn't support dynamic Parameter allocation)

Thanks in advance!

@iamlamprey is it crashing in HISE?

iamlamprey

@d-healey Even just assigning a control to a Macro crashes HISE for me lol

d.healey

@iamlamprey latest version of HISE?

iamlamprey

@d-healey develop's still the latest branch right? if so then yeh

iamlamprey

@iamlamprey oh actually i think my git might be broken lol there's been quite a few commits and it says im up to date

iamlamprey

ok latest build still crashing, here's the stack (just regular old macro assignment, not the OP crash):

Something to do with the MacroControlBroadcaster triggering a ui update

Edit: Don't want to jinx it but latest build seems to have fixed the original issue which is the more important one for me, clicked the randomize button a few hundred times now and haven't had it crash once
