EA stopped working
« on: June 04, 2021, 10:49:13 pm »
Since using V15 I get Windoze popping up a message box "EA stopped working; Debug blabla". That comes out of the blue when doing nothing special (like moving elements in a diagram). Running a post consistency tells me a couple of fixes (mostly related to the diagram) were made. Happens about 2 times a week or so. Anyone else experiencing that? Known bug?

Well, both 15.1 and 15.2. Never had that in 13.5. Of course, I'm running EA on a Mac under Parallels. So I know I'm sort of a unicorn.

Ah well I'm running v15.1 on windows 10 at work and v15.2 on windows on home machine without a hitch. Years ago when I had àn apple Mac pro running sparx EA on wine found had the odd problem and it was usually down to wine having some issue. Ran on parallels and crossover for a while before that but those never really worked well for me so ended up settling on wine and doing all the fiddling with wine tricks to get a more stable environment. Eventually grew tired of hassle of running on  mac os and moved to windows 10.

Using a native Windoze machine is (currently) not an option for me :-/ I also use wine for testing but found it more awkward than the Windoze box on Parallels. Finally it's all a matter of taste, I guess.

Hi Qwerty - You may not be the only "unicorn".... I run Sparx EA 15.2 under Parallels on a Mac (Big Sur).  I have not encountered the problem you have described.

Regards,
Perry

Thanks, Perry. However, that makes me feel even more like a unicorn ;-)
