TeeCahrt 4.2020.8.28 & 9.16

Post by HCCKPM_2020 » Wed Sep 30, 2020 11:54 am

Hello,

after updating from 5.25 to 8.28 or 9.16 we get the error

"System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException"
Parameter must be greater than Null
Parameter Name: emSize

What's the problem in those two versions?

In this case it's not that easy to extract the problem into a small application.
If you want you can have a look with teamviewer to my computer to get the fault.

What I can say is that it must have something to do with collapsing the containing grid.
Doesn't tell "emSize" or the exception anything?
The application crashes in the DLL and can't be catched with a "try...catch"

I don't think that's going to be very useful to me in the task of debugging the problem, which takes time, concentration, and more importantly, the TeeChart source-code.

I wish it did, but unfortunately I need more information before coming up with ideas of possible problems.

Hello,

emSize is often used for Font sizing. It could be going on in a call to TeeChart but there is no TeeChart parameter that I can find with the name "emSize".

If you put a break point in, do you see any TeeChart classes in the call stack? Is there any clue that this is being caused by TeeChart? I don't see any reference to it in the error message.

As Chris points out, we really do need more information.

With thanks.
Regards,
Marc

If I switch to 5.25 and do not change anything in my code the application works without any problem.
That absolutely identicates that the newer versions cause the problems.

I've used WinMerge to compare the builds 4.2020.09.16 and 4.2020.05.25, and I have identified one change that *might possibly* be problematic. Shortly I will make a special build for you to download and test.

Please find the test TeeChart.WPF.dll here. Does referencing this assembly make any noticeable difference to your issue?

That's not unexpected I'm afraid; as I said, this is working blind attempting to infer the cause of a problem which itself is not precisely defined. As far I as can see, the only option we have is to prepare 'experimental' assemblies of this kind and check empirically at your end (we can't check at our end) whether the problem occurs. I'll look to prepare another couple of such 'experimental' assemblies today for you.

Mmm, that's interesting, as TeeChartPro_4.2020.10.52 is a rebuild of 4.2020.05.25, which you say works at your end. Why would the same code built 5 months later not work, when it did 5 months ealier? The only difference I can think of is in the way we obfuscate our assemblies - later on today I'll do another build using a different obfuscation technique but using the same 4.2020.05.25 codebase to see if that's the issue.
