My calculator crashes when launching an App program - Marcelo Vanti - 08-17-2015 06:52 PM

Hello,
I have a problem when I try to launch an APP program from HOME environment in RPN mode. This happens, by example, with toshk Spectrum analysis if launched from Home by typing its name, i. e., Spect => Enter. In textbook mode it's ok, but I would to stay with RPN. That's a normal behavior?
Sorry by the bad English, and thanks for any help.

Apparently this one: http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-4539.html

Crashes are never acceptable behaviour.

Which firmware version are you using? Does the calculator display some kind of error message?

Greetings,

Matthias

Thanks, Matthias, for your reply.

Yes, that is. However, I did a simple example to ilustrate what and how it happens:
PHP Code:
EXPORT Sine()
BEGIN
 F1
:="SIN(X)";
 
STARTAPP("Function");
 
CHECK(1);
 
//
 
Xmin:=0;
 
Xmax:=6.28;
 
Ymin:=−1;
 
Ymax:=1;

 
STARTVIEW(1,1);
 
END

Thus, depending on how I launch the program, it can behave in one of three ways:

i) Launching from the program menu with "run" : the sine is drawn and the program ends.
ii) Launching from the Home environment in textbook typing Sine and Enter: the program works again, normally.
iii) Now , launching from the Home environment in RPN typing Sine and Enter: the calculator restarts, and the emulator crashes.

So, I would know if that's a bug or I doing something wrong.
I'm using the latest firmware, 8151, in calculator and in the emulator.

I can confirm the problem on an r8151 EMU, with win7. I think it's a bug. Similar to other RPN mode issues which have been reported. Most likely this will be addressed in a future release.

On the list... nothing immediately jumps out as to what might be going on here.
