@d-healey I get it on all platforms.

@Christoph-Hart I actually cant even make a monolith now. The latest update crashes HISE.

The crash is from HLAC compression. Setting to no compression works.

and here's a video showing successful creation of monolith, but crashes plugin host.

Ah I think I got the problem now.

After you export as Monolith, you have to reload the Samplemap, otherwise it is in a weird intermediate state (the SaveMode is set to 2 which means Monolith, but there is no information about the Monolith sample cues).

I'll fix this, but you can already try to just load the Samplemap again just after exporting as Monolith.

I didn't encounter this because I am constantly swapping the sample maps (in fact, it is good practice to remove every samplemap from the initial project so that it doesn't load samples twice, that's what the Tools -> Clear all Samplemaps command is for). If you have setup a script control that somehow loads samplemaps, it will be loaded when the preset state is restored.

Dan Korneff

@christoph-hart thanks for the reply.
I forgot the reload step... but unfortunately, it still does the same thing.

Alright, it should work now.

The problem was indeed that when directly exporting the project after converting to Monolith, the XML file looks like this:

What's missing is the MonolithOffset and MonolithLength property in the sample element, which caused the sample loading in the compiled plugin to load a zero length sample and crash.

Christoph Hart

Please try again (you need to rebuild HISE too).

If this doesn't solve the issue, you need to debug the compiled plugin:

Open TEST/Binaries/Builds/VisualStudio2017/TEST.sln in Visual Studio
Set the build configuration to Debug 64bit (it's a dropdown in the top icon bar)
Go to Project -> Properties and change the Debug executable to the AudioPlugin host binary (In the Debug tab it's called something like Target path)
Now compile the plugin from within Visual Studio. When it's finished, it should open the plugin host. Now drag the TEST x64 Debug.dll file to the host and it should point you to the crash location.
Please post a screenshot of the stack trace as well as the crash location, this is the most helpful information.

Dan Korneff

@christoph-hart u da man! Gonna check it now.

Dan Korneff

@christoph-hart Back to square one. Debug version loads okay. Release crashes.

Dan Korneff

I don't know if it's useful, but here's what happens when I debug the release version:

Christoph Hart

Can you post the exact state before you export (as HISE snippet) then I try to reproduce it.

Dan Korneff

Dan Korneff

hopefully I did that correctly

Dan Korneff

@Christoph-Hart any luck with this?

Christoph Hart

Unfortunately no, I can't reproduce the crash. Debugging the release version is the right way, but you need to manually enable the debug symbols, then it should point you to the faulty spot (it's a bit less verbose and accurate because of compiler optimisations though):

Export the plugin from HISE, but abort the command line compilation
Open the autogenerated projucer file with the Projucer
Go to the Exporter tab, select the Visual Studio Exporter -> Release Configuration (there are two of them, one for 32bit, one for 64bit). Do the next step for both.
Tick the box that says ("Force generation of debug symbols")
Press Save and open in IDE
Switch the configuration in VS to Release 64bit (it's a drop down in the top bar).
Repeat these steps from above:

Go to Project -> Properties and change the Debug executable to the AudioPlugin host binary (In the Debug tab it's called something like Target path)

Now compile the plugin from within Visual Studio. When it's finished, it should open the plugin host. Now drag the TEST x64.dll file to the host and it should point you to the crash location.

Please post a screenshot of the stack trace as well as the crash location, this is the most helpful information.

Dan Korneff

@christoph-hart compiling release via VS2017 works

Christoph Hart

And can you run the plugin outside of Visual Studio (not having attached it)?

Dan Korneff

@christoph-hart yup. What's the difference between compiling in HISE and VS?

Christoph Hart

Actually, nothing that should matter. HISE is calling the command line version of the compiler used by Visual Studio.

Can you post the batchCompile.bat file, maybe you're calling an deprecated version of msbuild (there are multiple versions of this and maybe you call the one belonging to an old VS2015 install.

Dan Korneff

Maybe I spoke too soon. It worked for my simple test project, but not for my more involved design. Investigating further...
