Simulator crashes 9/10 times when loading app settings

Dear all,

Almost every single time I select my project in the App Settings Editor, the simulator crashes with the following error:
Socket Error in packet header 0

I'm trying to change settings while my data field is running to simulate a user changing settings during runtime.

Any advice on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for any help!

P.S. I'm running on Mac OS X El Capitan (10.11.5) using SDK 1.2.9
  • I haven't been able to reproduce this. Has anyone seen this occurring in the 2.1.0 beta SDK?
  • Brandon,

    I have spent the last 40 minutes trying to reproduce this issue on my 2.1.0 environment, without getting a single crash. :)

    Whenever I switch to my 1.2.9 environment, I get a crash quite quickly within 3 minutes.
    There is no clear set of reproduction steps.

    Good news is that this doesn't seem to be an issue in 2.1.0 anymore.

    I'll do some more testing and keep an eye out, but I urge others in this thread to also test and report their observations.
  • Okay, good to hear. I didn't see it in 1.2.9, either, but I didn't spend a whole lot of time working with 1.2.9 today.

    I think the issue is due to a bug in WxSockets (which basically didn't work on Mac), and I know that was fixed and was included in the 2.1.0 beta SDK release. If any of you experiencing this can try the 2.1.0 beta (if you haven't already) and let me know whether you're still experiencing the problem, I'd appreciate it.
