The question is whether the CLR should take down the whole phone server due to an unhandled exception...definitely the CLR should terminate...but shouldn't it just log the exception to the console, not crash the core?

That’s by design. If a thread fails, and there’s no handler, then the application could be in a corrupted state, so the CLR takes down the process.

 

I think there is a .NET 1.0 compat switch you can enable in the config if you like exceptions to be silently ignored J.

I have a new thought on the crashes...I'm able to crash FreeSWITCH any time I like, just by having an exception in a thread.

 

    public class CrashFreeSWITCH : ILoadNotificationPlugin

    {

        public bool Load()

        {

            ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem((o) => { throw new NotImplementedException(); });

            return true;

        }

    }

 

Perhaps Application.ThreadException or AppDomain.UnhandledException need to be trapped?

If it’s null, you should get a NullReferenceException. The C# compiler should callvirt the property getter and that’ll do a null check. If that isn’t happening, that’d be an interesting optimization somewhere along the line.

A new discovery:

        public bool Load()

        {

            ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem((o) =>

            {

                Log.WriteLine(LogLevel.Notice, "Thread Starting. ");

                EventConsumer con = new EventConsumer("all", "");

                while (true)

                {

                    Event ev = con.pop(0);

                    if (ev == null) continue;

                    Log.WriteLine(LogLevel.Notice, "Event: " + ev.serialized_string);

                }

            });

            return true;

        }

Does not crash. (Adding the null check prevents crash.) The backgrounded loop runs fine. Looks like the event object goes straight to pinvokes, so a null result just crashes?

 

I like the idea of a 'startup-script' for mod_managed. It would also be excellent if there was an event or message  informing the background code to terminate nicely when the module reloads.

I think the problem here is that the loader only keeps this method in scope
until completion then it drops the remoted connection. Therefore you should
not use threads in this method. Michael please correct me if I am wrong
here.

As an example of the failure simply just put a Sleep(10000) call in the
thread and you will see the failure.

As Michael said this method was only designed to allow the option to opt out
of being loaded.

In order to support this perhaps a configuration flag simular to the lua
"startup-script" should be added.




Here is the error I get with the loop I mentioned. -Josh
