Invalid Pointer crash in ScreenshotCaptor 2.93
« on: July 10, 2011, 08:40 PM »
I dont recall having a crash in ScreenshotCaptor before, but I did today.  v2.93. 

I was scrolling down through the list of ClipArt Objects (arrows and such), when it popped up an error dialog, I dont recall the contents, but it was something like an access violation.  I was able to hit OK and continue operating.  But scrolling any more would give the same error.  So I closed ScreenshotCaptor and reopened.  Then I did the same thing and scrolled the clipart down really fast to see if it would crash, and got a "List index out of bounds".

I was able to get a user.dmp from DrWatson (Windows XP) for the crash, and I ran an analysis I'll include at the end of this message.

Then I upgraded to 2.95 and I couldn't immediately reproduce the error.  But since I didnt see anything in the Version History regarding the ClipArt, I wanted to let you know of this malfunction.

Here's the WinDbg analysis:

I've never heard a report of an error crash before when messing around with clipart BUT then again i don't think it's a very commonly used feature.
The "List index out of bounds" error usually means some improper attempt to reference an item in the list of files that no longer exists..  I'll play around and see if i can cause it to reoccur -- if it happens to you again let me know.
