Closing Cubase, breaks, stopping Timer Thread break

Audio Plugins
#1

Hi together, Hi Jules,

sometimes, not always, when debugging my plugin (in Cubase SX 3) a breakpoint is triggered when Cubase is closing.
It seems to me that a thread tries to kill the Juce-Timer Thread from the GUI which was (maybe?) exited before. (See Debugger Output)
I’m using Juce 1_41.

Breakpoint position:

[code]void Thread::stopThread (const int timeOutMilliseconds)
{
const ScopedLock sl (startStopLock);

if (isThreadRunning())
{
    signalThreadShouldExit();
    notify();

    if (timeOutMilliseconds != 0)
        waitForThreadToExit (timeOutMilliseconds);

    if (isThreadRunning())
    {
        // very bad karma if this point is reached, as
        // there are bound to be locks and events left in
        // silly states when a thread is killed by force..
        jassertfalse 												                    <--------------
        Logger::writeToLog (T("!! killing thread by force !!"));

        juce_killThread (threadHandle_);
        threadHandle_ = 0;
        threadId_ = 0;

        const ScopedLock sl (runningThreadsLock);
        runningThreads.removeValue (this);
    }
}

}
[/code]

Strange - looks like your timer thread is getting messed up - it looks like the timer thread exits cleanly but is then killed again somehow… Maybe put a breakpoint in the timer thread constructor/destructor and see what’s going on?

#3

The problem does not always happen, so its difficult to see whats going on with a breakpoint. So i added some logging statements, to the thread and timer Class in this form.

#if JUCE_DEBUG String s("\nThread::waitForThreadToExit"); s+=T(" Name:")+getThreadName(); s+=T(" ID:")+String().toHexString(getThreadId()); DBG(s); #endif

#if JUCE_DEBUG String s("\nTimer destructor start "+String((int64)this)); s+=T(" countdownMs=")+String(countdownMs); s+=T(" isTimerRunning=")+String(isTimerRunning()); s+=T(" next=")+String((int64)next); s+=T(" periodMs=")+String(periodMs); s+=T(" previous=")+String((int64)previous); DBG(s); #endif

I’m not sure if it helps to find the problem.
You see there are some memory-leaks, can this be the problem (maybe from the message-queue)?

I use my own “lookandfeel” but the problem appears without using this lookandfeel too.

[size=150]The output when thread is closing correct, 0xed8 is the timer[/size]

“\juce\src\juce_appframework\gui\components\lookandfeel\mylookandfeel.h”??? WTF? Get your leaks and dodgy hacks tidied up first, then I might look into this! I’ve seen problems before where look and feel objects left lying around can break the shutdown process.

#5

ok, no problem

i compiled the Demo-Plugin from the AudioPlugin-Wrapper, with an original Juce 1_41. I get the same leaks.
2 of them you see in the log, are from juce_UseDebuggingNewOperator:
c:\cpp_projects\juce\src\juce_appframework\events\juce_message.h(81)
c:\cpp_projects\juce\src\juce_appframework\gui\components\lookandfeel\juce_shinylookandfeel.h(173)

The number of “juce_message.h” memory leaks is various. Between 1-3.

But, and that is the good news, i don’t get the breakpoint issue till yet.
I will investigate.

Oh yes, sorry! Looks like it’s me whose dodgy code was leaking the look and feel! Oops!

Quick fix would be this, in DemoEditorComponent.cpp:

class AutoDeletedLookAndFeel : public ShinyLookAndFeel, public DeletedAtShutdown { public: AutoDeletedLookAndFeel() {} };

and create one of those instead of the default one.

Don’t worry about a couple of leaked messages - that’s unavoidable when sometimes the plugin gets killed while there are some messages still sittin g in the app’s event queue.

#7

bad news:

i get the breakpoint issue, the call-stack is the same like in my first post

sorry, i didn’t read your last post before answering.
Fine, there are only the message-leaks, ok i can live with that, but why gets the timer thread killed?..:?

Do you have any ideas? some kinds of open locked CriticalSections, mmhh…

#9

The only thing I can think of would be if cubase was deleting the plugin during a recursive idle callback - i.e. the plugin is calling cubase’s idle function and in that it’s deleting the plugin. Or if a lock is getting jammed somewhere.

What we need to know is the stack trace when this thread is getting killed. That’d show which other thread is stuck, and why.

I don’t have cubase installed on my machine at the moment, so can’t try it here!

#10

maybe cubase puts all thread ids in an array, and then kills them one by one :shock:

#11

ok, maybe i have something.

when the problem appears, Cubase killed the timer-thread by force, because the timer-thread wasn’t in Thread::wait. So it never had the chance to bring itself to an end.

So what we can do is to tell the timer thread to quit itself, at the beginning when the main-window is closed and wait for it. So it has a little more time to do that.

Good Idea/Bad Idea, or is it nonsense? :?

#12

The timer should get killed cleanly when the DLL is unloaded. I find it hard to believe that cubase would go around killing threads before unloading the DLL…

#13

Sorry i think i was wrong.

The thread ends in Thread::wait
