It need not be the same bug. An SEH Exception: Access Violation usually means that the hardware detected an invalid access. See <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms679329(v=vs.85).aspx>. In general, an Access Violation is not recoverable, which is how it shows up as an OpenOffice 4.x.x - Fatal Error.
The underlying cause is usually some sort of data violation or pointer error. It can come and go because, although there is a defect, it depends on the memory layout at a given time and it also depends on what the hardware checks are and whether they are enabled. It can well be data dependent and involve what the user is doing and the nature of the document being worked on. These should be treated as crashers. But we must be aware that this is a generic notification and it could have a different root cause from one report to another. Also, they need not be newly-introduced bugs, but ones that simply had not been caught as access violations until the storage allocation of the program changed. Examples that could but would not always trigger this are (1) access to previously- released or unallocated memory, (2) accesses that go off the end of the stack, and (3) reads/writes off the end of something where the storage off that end is not readable by the current process or not writeable as data. When there is no detected access violation, it is likely that something is being silently corrupted. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Andrea Pescetti [mailto:pesce...@apache.org] Sent: Friday, July 17, 2015 09:33 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Cc: binny.ja...@firmusoft.co.in Subject: Re: Open office Calc crashing Binny James wrote: > May I know why this coming: > I am working in a Windows 8 64 bit > I was working with calc Is it this bug? https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125567 It is reported and confirmed only with Impress so far, but your report looks quite similar to it.
