Thread deadlock inside CString::AllocB uffer and sudden crashes

*Hallo rajayan!
Now that we are towards the fag end of the project, we are getting
occasiona
lly hit by sudden crashes where our top level exception handler is
not
even
able to come into play and create the required .dmp file. We also
are
seeing
deadlock cases like the link I have mentioned above.

Any chance you are using Terminate-/Suspend-/ResumeThread?

Thank you for your reply. Yes we do. Could you please elaborate. Are
you referring to the CString::AllocB uffer related hangs or sudden
crashes

Never ever call Terminate/SuspendThread!! !
Redesign your app!

See: Why you should never call Suspend/TerminateThread (Part I-III)

I have an application that uses Postgres 7.2.3. It appears to deadlock fromtime to time. I'm not absolutely sure that it deadlocks, but I'm pretty sure because all of a sudden all my updates block, and my postgres processes are all idle. The strange thing is that my application never concurrently modifies any row (although it does modify multiple rows in the same table within a given transaction), so I don't know how this could happen, unless...

I am new to threading and trying to figure some things out. Are all variables in a thread set to only that thread? Meaning if I create 2 instances of a class and then put each one in a different thread and run them will the local variables in functions be shared or will they be thread safe?

I get python crashes and (in better cases) strange Python exceptions when (in most cases) importing and using cookielib lazy on demand in a thread. It is mainly with cookielib, but remember the problem also with other imports (e.g. urllib2 etc.). And again very often in all these cases where I get weired Python exceptions, the problem is around re-functions - usually during re.compile calls during import (see some of the exceptions below). But...

Hi, I've recently been working on an application which does quite a bit of searching through large data structures and string matching, and I was thinking that it would help to put some of this CPU-intensive work in another thread, but of course this won't work because of Python's GIL. There's a lot of past discussion on this, and I want to bring it up again because with the work on Python 3000, I think it is worth trying

Hi, In multi-thread programming, if I using smart pointers to store pointers to the same dynamically allocated objects, can memory leak be avoided? For example, two threads share the same dynamically allocated objects using smart pointer. The reference to the shared object is 2. If one thread crashes before decreasing the reference, then eventually the reference will still be 1, so the object will not be deleted. So this

What am I doing wrong? I'm trying to capture stdErr in a multi-threaded program. This code crashes wxPython with /Py Assertion Error: C++ assertion "m_count=-1 || m_count=-2" failed/ What I'm trying to do is redirect stderr and stdout to a wxPython text control. In an ideal world, when the worker thread crashes, I should get a stderr message, with no effect on the main thread.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
