Hard Crash

[anonymous]

The following causes a hard crash with the latest stable of AutoIt. The code is useless but IMO it stil shouldnt cause a hard crash.

While 1
	$V=1
	$V=Ret($V)
	MsgBox(0,"",$V)
WEnd


Func Ret($Val)
	Return Ret($Val)
EndFunc   ;==>Ret

It doesn't cause a hard crash for me. It correctly gives the "Recursion level has been exceeded - AutoIt will quit to prevent stack overflow." error.

It appears to work on x86 autoit. However in x64 the crash happens.

any word on this issue?

Confirm a Hard crash when ran on x64 Win7.

reopened for more detailed review.

Reproducing script for x86:

AutoIt:3.3.4.0 (Os:WIN_XP/X86/Service Pack 2 Language:0419 Keyboard:00000409 Cpu:X86)

$Count = 0
$Max = 4282
$Max += 1 ;Comment this line, and the script will not crash

Ret()

Func Ret()
	$Count += 1
	If $Count < $Max Then Return Ret()
EndFunc

Fixed by revision [5691] in version: 3.3.5.4

I reopened it as for X86 as stated by MSCreator 3.3.5.4 hardcrashed

[Jon]

Works for me. It's environment related. The only current solution is to keep reducing the recursion level and it's a fairly pointless excercise as unless it is set at some ridiculously low level it will always break for someone.

Automatic ticket cleanup.

perhaps Win7 as a greater limit than Vista.
The anonymous example is working under Vista 3.3.5.4
I don't understand why the limit under X64 will be smaller than X86
