uVision3 is crashing whenever I try to download to flash. My appliation compiles OK but whenever I try to flash the device the windows message "uVision3 IDE has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." appears. My application used to flash OK but something strange happened and uVision closed suddenly without warning after this whenever I open it again this error keeps coming back. Other applications flash OK without problem and restarting windows has no effect, this leads me to believe that a file is corrupted. Any Ideas please. Ian
Can you send us a test case (and give us the version number information) so that we can duplicate this crash here. Send it to support.intl@keil.com. Reinhard
Hi Reinhard, The problem was with my code (suprise suprise!). I had a task that had no code in it. Thanks, Ian
"The problem was with my code (suprise suprise!). I had a task that had no code in it." But surely, that shouldn't cause the uVision application to crash?! :-0 Your embedded system might crash & burn, but it shouldn't take the PC with it! What's the use of a debugger that crashes whenever it finds a bug?!! Definitely sounds like there's something in there that needs fixing!
Again, we would like to know the version number and how to duplicate this crash. Reinhard
Hi! I experience a similar problem. µVision crashes when I try to upload large ELF (e.g. 330kB) files. These phenomena do not occur when the ELF file is small (e.g. 110kB) and seem to be independent from the source code The same compiled including debug information causes a crash but the same code without debug information does not. The problem signature shown by Windows is: AppName: uv3.exe AppVer: 3.12.1.1 ModName: sarm.dll ModVer: 1.25.0.1 Offset: 000498f9 Tool chain: ARM UCLIBC GCC compiler version: 3.3.1 bin utils version: 2.14 µVision3 3.12a CPU DLL: SRAM.DLL V1.25 Dialog DLL: DARMP.DLL V1.09 Target DLL: BIN\UL2ARM.DLL V1.07 Dialog DLL: TARMP.DLL V1.08 Target: Philips LPC2129 JTAG: µLink keilul.sys, file version 2.0, version 1.0.0.1, 2002-10-22 Thanks for any help in advance!
