Issue with basic AS3 workers classes - multithreading

I have followed Lee Brimelow's tutorials (part 1, part 2), but somehow my project doesn't work as expected.
Currently, publishing "src/Secondary.as" to "www/assets/swf/secondary.swf" works properly, however when trying to run "src/Main.as", an error shows up:
Exception fault: TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
at Main/init()[/Volumes/DOCUMENTS/Tests/AS3/test-workers/src/Main.as:52]
at Main()[/Volumes/DOCUMENTS/Tests/AS3/test-workers/src/Main.as:32]
If anybody has time, you can look at my code on Github and maybe see where I screwed up? Thanks a bunch!

As your error message says: the problem raised in Line 52 in your Main.init()method. What you try to do there is to create a new instance of SecondarySWF. I would say that your embedment of Secondary class into SecondarySWF doesn't work properly, so it is not available in your init-method. You should set a breakpoint at the first line of your init-method and when the debugger reaches this point check what's in SecondarySWF. I expect that there's nothing in that variable, so what your new SecondarySWF() then means actually is new null().
Because you embed your secondary.swf with a MIME-type specified the Flex compiler ignores it because it is unable to detect the actual type of data in the loaded file. I found this post on Adobe's cookbook page that explains what you have to do in addition to adding the file using [Embed]. Hope this will fit your needs.

create exception when python command generates a program.exe has stopped working type error

I am facing a problem with a program i am developing in Python 3.6 under Windows 10.
One particular command generates an unknown error, windows throws a 'program.exe has stopped working' message and the program exits.
The command is a 3d-model loader that is part of another python package (Panda3D). The crash is always associated with this command (and more particularly with a specific dll of the loader) and a particular file that it tries to open.
Since i cannot locate and therefore solve the faults in the dll (probably there is a bug there) i would like to just pass the problematic file and continue to the next one. But since python exits and i do not know the error type, the typical try, except does not work.
So, i would like to know if there is a way to predict this type of behavior in my code and prevent the program from exiting.
Many thanks for any help.
The pop-up "Program.exe has stopped working." can be caused by a variety of things and therefor there is no "one size fits all" type solution. But if you're certain that your problem is cause by a specific line of code you can always try something along the lines of :
try:
loader.loadModel("c/path/to/your/file")
except Exception as e:
print(e.message, e.args)
# your error-handling code here
Make sure the file path that you're giving to loadModel respects the following :
# WRONG:
loader.loadModel("c:\\Program Files\\My Game\\Models\\Model1.egg")
# RIGHT:
loader.loadModel("/c/Program Files/My Game/Models/Model1.egg")

Angular Build - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined

I have managed to build my angular app out as a dev build. I haven't done it as a production build yet as it gives me a few errors and i just need to test the dev build.
The dev build process goes fine, no errors or anything. I then use the files from the dist folder in a nginx docker container to host the files.
The problem is nothing is displayed but a white page and in the console i get an error saying 'Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined'. The full message below doesn't seem to point to anything i have written and i've spent several hours searching online but can't find anything on this problem.
I've tried a few different things such as running 'npx ivy-ngcc' which i read manually compiles some stuff. Is there anyway i can get more details on the error to see if it's something i have done?
UPDATE
So i have restored the line that i commented out in main.ts as mentioned in the comments below. I have also tried 'ng build --aot' as suggested which presents me with a series of errors that all seem to relate to devextreme components that are used. I find this strange as i started the project with the devextreme angular starter project from github.
i get messages such as:
'dx-scroll-view is not a valid HTML element'
'node_modules/devextreme-angular/ui/drawer.d.ts - error: appears in
the NgModule.imports of SideNavOuterToolbarModule, but could not be resolved to an NgModule class'
If you go in the devtools and click on Sources, "Don't pause on exceptions" and check "Pause on caught expecptions" and continue until you get the "id error" you will find what module the error is thrown. In my case was a third party library called 'ngx-card/ngx-card' and it's module was the cause of the error (CardModule). Hope this will help find at least the cause of the error
I managed to solve the problem by disabling ivy in the angular compilation options. As soon as i did that it worked building both dev and production versions and is now working perfectly within Nginx.
Thanks to everyone who offered help :)
In tsconfig.json of your Angular project, put this to disable Ivy, the new Angular template engine
{
...
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"enableIvy": false
}
}
Typically, if it's not something that you've written, it tends to be an issue w/ your implementation - i.e. "Visiting a food vendor and ordering a food item they don't provide".
I know it's not a specific answer, but ensuring that you have appropriately configured things in your app.module would be a good first step. Perhaps attempting to build w/ AOT will also give you some more verbose failures that stem from attempting to build out.
Hopefully this helps another poor soul.
To anyone using devextreme, make sure you update your version to at least 19.2.5
https://github.com/DevExpress/devextreme-angular/issues/975#issuecomment-580172291
Starting with version 19.2.5 we support the IVY compiler.
I had the same issue and fixed it by changing from
loadChildren: './app/page/account/account.module#AccountModule'
to
loadChildren: () =>
import('./app/page/account/account.module').then(
(m) => m.AccountModule
)
in app-router.module.ts
The root cause of your error is very likely to be a module that you needed to load explicitly but didn't, or a circular reference in your own modules. Rodrigo has a good answer but to be more specific, you need to find the registerNgModuleType function in Angular's core.js and set a conditional breakpoint on the first line. The condition should be !ngModuleType || !ngModuleType.ɵmod. (You can set a conditional breakpoint in most modern browsers by right-clicking the line number.)
Once you've paused execution just before the exception happens, you can look at the value of ngModuleType if it's not undefined, or walk up a frame or two in the scope and see what the value of imports was.
For me, this issue occurred while using Storybook.
The reason it happened was because of the way I was precompiling the node modules. I was doing:
Incorrect
ngcc --properties es2015 browser module main --first-only
Correct
ngcc
Using this approach fixed it

Azure: error not detected

I have an experiment in Azure. When I launch the run I obtain:
If you look at the top on the right you see that there is an error, but no module has it.
If I run the single module where (in this simple case) I know that the error has to be, I can highlight the specific error.
Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?
I had a similar error once when, for some reason, a module (not created by me) was simply under another one. So the error was shown, but I couldn't see that module.

Read DICOM images

i am trying to read dicom images without using imageviewer and i came across VtkGdmReader.. when i am trying to execute it, its giving me an error:
code => vtkGdmReader example
error C2039: 'SetInput' : is not a member of 'vtkTexture'
error C2039: 'SetInput' : is not a member of 'vtkPolyDataMapper'
please can any one tell me why am i facing this problem, is this error related to vtk version ? if so then how can i go about it ?
please help me resolving the problem..
As said in the comments, this error is related to the VTK version. SetInput() was removed in VTK 6.
You can either work in VTK 5 or update the code. If you decide to update it, this error gets fixed by replacing SetInput() with either SetInputData() or SetInputConnection() with a few modifications. You should use SetInputConnection() if you want the filters to go through the pipeline.
As an example of fixing the errors you mentioned, you should replace the following lines in the code you provided:
VTKtexture->SetInput(ima); and
VTKplaneMapper->SetInput(VTKplane->GetOutput());
to:
VTKtexture->SetInputConnection(reader->GetOutputPort()); and
VTKplaneMapper->SetInputConnection(VTKplane->GetOutputPort());
In the second modification (VTKplaneMapper), note that we just changed GetOutput() to GetOutputPort(), while in the first one (VTKtexture) we completely changed the argument passed to SetInputConnection(). That happens because data objects (such as ima) no longer have dependency on pipeline objects (such as algorithms and executives). In this case, we give the algorithm that generated that data object as the argument - if you look for it, you can see the line vtkImageData* ima = reader->GetOutput();, you just have to replace GetOutput() by GetOutputPort() as we did in the second modification.
I recommend looking into the VTK Wiki's VTK 6 Migration pages (and guide) for more information on this error and other errors that you might run into.

WinRT - Windows Store - WinRT Originate Error - How do decipher such an error?

I'm working on a Windows Store app and I'm getting a WinRT error that doesn't really give me any information so I would like to know how to understand these sorts of errors.
Basically I get the error on the following line which is called inside OnPointerPressed:
m_gestureRecognizer->ProcessDownEvent(args->GetCurrentPoint(nullptr));
The error is:
First-chance exception at 0x76F54B32 (KernelBase.dll) in DXAML2.exe: 0x40080201: WinRT originate error (parameters: 0x80070057, 0x00000044, 0x03CEE72C).
This error didn't used to appear, the only thing I've changed is that this line is now wrapped in an if clause which tests if the current pointer's PointerId is the same as one I've stored just using == such as:
if(args->GetCurrentPoint(nullptr)->PointerId == m_UIPointerID)
I have no idea why this has started happening.
So my question is in two parts:
More generally, how do I understand what an error such as the above means?
And does anyone know this error has suddenly started happening now that I check the pointerId?
Thanks for your time.
P.S. I guess another thing that has changed is that there will already be 2 pointers on the screen (the one that gets pushed into this GestureRecognizer) as well as another one, hence the PointerId check.
"How to Decipher such an error"...
For any WinRT originate error, you can take the third address in the parameters list (in your example, 0x03CEE72C), and find a description of your error in the memory window.
While debugging, break when your error is thrown and open the memory window via Debug -> Windows -> Memory -> Memory 1
Copy and paste the address to get your "easy-to-find" error message.
As Raman said - it's good to look up the hex values shown. The first one is the memory location which won't tell you much without the symbols/source, which in this case is reported directly by Windows. Perhaps the public symbols can shed some more light on where the error came from, but the error code lookups are more helpful.
If you Bing for 0x80070057 you will find an MSDN article on Common HRESULT Values which lists
E_INVALIDARG : One or more arguments are not valid : 0x80070057
It doesn't give you all the details of course, so you're off to theorize. Perhaps you can only call args->GetCurrentPoint(nullptr) once and you should store/reuse the value? Maybe gesture recognizer is not configured correctly? Maybe the app window is not visible at the time the exception is thrown or the thread is wrong. Maybe some expected calls to gesture recognizer were missed due to filtering those out with these "if" statements.
