FileSelectPopupEx causes Stack Overflow when run in CVI 2015 SP 1 on Windows 10 (1607)

[CVI-User]

Hi,

when debugging the arrayfile sample within CVI, execution stops with a Fatal Run-Time Error "Stack Overflow" when FileSelectPopupEx() is called - see picture.

The error is not limited to FileSelectPopupEx(), it also happens when Windows' GetSaveFileName() is used.

Can someone verify this?

No-one? Dang...

I just tested here the same example without problems in saving and reading both in ASCII and binary format.

Are you executing a standard or modified example? I just noted that I haven't that many threads in my program: my threads list shows only 4 entries.

An update on this: I happened to capture the error with Visual Studio:

So it's TortoiseGit's overlay icons causing the stack overflow. Increasing the default stack size of the sample is one solution, the other is removing all (?) overlay icon handlers in tgit.

Just in case someone else is experiencing this issue.
