My Software project is working fine in most of the cases
(www.pythonscad.org)
however I am right now isolating a scenario, which makes it crash
permanently.
It does not happen with Python 3.11.6 (and possibly below), it happens with
3.12 and above
It does not happen when not using Threads.
However due to the architecture of the program I am forced to evaluate some
parts in main thread and some parts in a dedicated Thread. The Thread is
started with QThread(QT 5.0)
whereas I am quite sure that program flows do not overlap.
When I just execute my 1st very simple Python function inside the newly
created thread, like:
PyObject *a = PyFloat_FromDouble(3.3);
my program crashes with this Stack trace

I suspect, that this is a Null pointer here
See also _PyInterpreterState_Get()
and _PyGILState_GetInterpreterStateUnsafe(). */
static inline PyInterpreterState* _PyInterpreterState_GET(void) {
PyThreadState *tstate = _PyThreadState_GET();
#ifdef Py_DEBUG
_Py_EnsureTstateNotNULL(tstate);
#endif
# <<----------- suspect state is nullpointer
return tstate->interp;
}
any clues , whats going on here, and how I can mitigate that ?
