ItemsView issue

[jpeterstewart]

Describe the bug

• ItemsView can be made to crash by just scrolling up and down a little after adding a few hundred items. • ItemsView becomes slow as molasses when adding new items after a few hundred items.

Steps to reproduce the bug

The small test app in this repository can be used to reproduce the bugs:

Expected behavior

1. No crashes

I can see it becoming painfully slow, but at least it does not crash here when scrolling.

Windows 10 version 22H2 19045.4414

at least it does not crash here when scrolling.

The crashing issue only happens once in a while after adding a bunch of items. I'm not sure if it happens more frequently after adding large-ish numbers of items. I've seen it happen once with only a few hundred items and several times with over 10,000 items.

I try to use ItemsView in my project, and after adding the content of more than 100 try to roll, also met the same problem, this is done by the Application. The UnhandledException event capture the exception information

Yes, it's absolutely possible to make it crash, even though it's intermittent.

Thanks for your report. We fixed the slow performance issue for the WinAppSDK 1.6 release, but could not repro the crashing issue. Could you please open a separate GitHub issue if you can repro the crash in 1.6? Thanks.

[jpeterstewart]

Great news! I look forward to being able to use ItemsView in 1.6. Any estimate of when it will be available as a preview so I can try it out?

Thanks,

Peter
