BUG - Crash when select all

[syahmixp]

Hi, Thanks for this software

I press CTRL+A (Select All) while the windows/diff is still loading (Windows is still empty without contents, line number and source file location) like the screenshot below will crash DiffMerge.
Pressing CTRL+A after loading is fine.


Im on Windows 7
DiffMerge 3.3.0 (18513)

Thanks.

I wasn't able to reproduce this because my files loaded so quickly that I didn't have the chance to finish pressing CTRL+A.

Are you diffing very large files?

Could you give me specific steps to reproduce this?

Not a large file...

but I do directory compare to compare difference files within 2 directories.
Then double-clicking the differences files, windows will load for a few miliseconds and before it loads, I pressed CTRL+A. It crashes.

Edit:
(Sorry for double-post)

I think this can only be reproduced by some OS version. I have sensitive windows that will crash even if it small bugs in our application (eg. accessing invalid memory pointer - don't remember)...

Here I created dump files by using Windows Task Manager, hope it will helps you analyze the problem.

Thanks. I'll forward this information to our Diff/Merge developer.
