Enable verbose debugging or way to see WHY NT8 crashes

[WHICKED]

I am developing a indicator but when I try to load a chart, it will just randomly crash. The only logging that is produced is in Windows Event Manager and it states that a portion of the .NET library crashed. Real helpful.

Is there a way that I can actually see WHY and WHERE it is causing NT to crash or if it is something in NT? I have all of my computations surrounded in try/catch and it still produced nothing.

Hello WHICKED,

Thank you for your post.

Have you tried debugging using Visual Studio?

I'd recommend attaching the debugger and running the indicator to see if that shows more information regarding the crashing behavior.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

WHICKED What is the fault being logged? The Event Viewer will have this in the General section of the event.

For example:

Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 10.0.19041.1387, time stamp: 0x0b9a844a
Exception code: 0xc0000602

The faulting module and exception code can often provide clues as to what is happening.

Thanks.

I also attached to the process. When it crashes, it only states the following:

System.StackOverflowException
HResult=0x800703E9
Message=Exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' was thrown.

Hello WHICKED,

Thank you for your reply.

Sometimes an infinite loop can cause a crash, and there may not be a good way to trap the infinite loop unless you identify where the loop/recursion is entered.

You could use prints or StreamWriter to walk through parts of your code and leave a message until the crash happens, that can help identify where the crash originates from. You could also comment\uncomment code sections to narrow down where the crash may stem from.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

WHICKED Having been through this loop () myself a few times, NinjaTrader_Kate is right to point you in that direction.

I suggest you look at all relevant loop constructs for boundary and exit conditions to see if any may not be doing what you intended.
