Re: UPDATE: DMCP-3.21 / DM42-3.18b1 BETA RELEASE
My original patch was intended to address a memory leak, but unfortunately it also introduced a new bug, which neither I nor SwissMicros caught before they released it...
Re: UPDATE: DMCP-3.21 / DM42-3.18b1 BETA RELEASE
Hmm interesting. From my limited testing it looks like anything that would generate a complex result (even the complex button) is doing this. Very unfortunate bug to have if you work with complex numbers a lot. Hoping SM will have a patch out soon.
Guess this is what I get for using beta software

the fact is, you can't tell when a program generates a complex number. For example, G4_G3_G2 can manage real and complex numbers and when it generates a complex here the program crashes, as other programs.

Well, I've re-flashed my DM42 to the previous firmware version, and will wait until a reliable new version is available with a dynamic stack. Fortunately, I saved the previous binary file on my computer.

That's what we all get, better software!dalremnei wrote: ↑Sun Mar 28, 2021 7:09 pmHmm interesting.

Bugs are quickly found and reported, and fixes can follow.
With that quick report, SM can use Thomas' update to get a new version out (but keep in mind it was only released on Friday guys) which will let the beta process continue, now with working complex value support.
