Frequent crashing

Open cemccusker opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

Running Avogadro 1.2.0 on a Mac (OS 10.12.6) and the program crashes almost every time I try to open an ORCA output file (both the .out and the .xyz)

sorry @ghutchis I reported a pile of problems we can work also on them? https://github.com/cryos/avogadro/issues/918#issue-375062877

@cemccusker & @duble0 - Avogadro 1.x is in “triage mode.” We’ll definitely get one last release out with as many bug fixes as possible. But our main goal is to get things polished and complete for Avogadro 2: https://github.com/openchemistry/avogadrolibs which should solve almost all of the crashing issues (with a new architecture and rendering framework).

Ok @ghutchis ! ...My intention was for show you some problems and inform that we published on Microsoft Store and it have a fairly successful. I'm happy that you work on another architecture. In the new architecture you don't use QT? Correct?

@duble0 we use Qt 5 in Avogadro 2, I don't think these crashes are due to Qt, but Qt 4 may be having issues with changes made in recent operating system updates.
