Hi,

do the following:

* take a int div component and a int sample and hold * connect the output of the int div component to both the int input and the trigger input of the sample and hold * SM will crash immediately once you connect the trigger input to the div output (presumably it doesn't understand to "Not a Number" output of the div component - perhaps one should use "1" as a default denominator instead of "0" 😉 )

Greetings, NothanUmber

I just tried it but it seems fine, maybe I'm doing something wrong? I've got an Int Div with two links going from it's output. One to the Int input of an Int Sample and Hold and the other to the trigger input of the same Int Sample and Hold.

Yes that's right. Have reproduced the procedure a moment ago and SM crashes instantly here (the recovery file only shows an empty schematic). Make sure that you connect the output from the int div to the int output of the sample and hold first and then the connection to the trigger (also from the output of the sample and hold as you stated above). Perhaps you're using an internal development version that already has fixed that bug as a side effect?

P.S.: Don't apply any input values to the int div component (or "0" to the denominator)

Just to be absolutely sure on this, here's a pic of what I have:

Is this right? I'm definitely using 0.9.3x. Can anyone else get this to crash? It's rare to find things of this nature that happen on one setup and not on an other. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this soon.

Yes, that's it, is crashing here every time I try it, absolutely reproducably. (Am doing that on an empty schematic like you so it's not a strange side effect in a complex circuit)

Whatever it was, just tried that in 0.9.3y and the problem seems to be solved there. Nice! 🙂

NothanUmber, I think we just found the bug. Should be fixed in the latest version y: [old link] I think it was a divide by zero bug.
