We just updated to version 2014.1 and an issue that was resolved with version 2013.3 involving crashes on Windows 8 machines is back again. Are you guys aware of any issues w\ Windows 8 and V2014.1? Thanks.

Hello.

We don't know about any problems of our latest release with Windows 8.
Could you describe your issue more detailed?

Thank you.

I have attached a VS2012 solution. If you run the solution in DEBUG and put a breakpoint on the line indicated below, using the 2014.1.bin assemblies, it will crash and never get to the following line. If you run the same thing and swap out to the 2013.3.bin assemblies is works fine. The code seems to work fine when you run it as a compiled exe, just not in debug. We had the same issue w\ your 2013.2 version and it started working in 2013.3. We are running VS2012 on Windows 8.1 Enterprise. Here is a snippet from the example solution (attached):

namespace StimulsoftLibrary
{
public class ReportClass
{
public void RunReport()
{
// PUT A BREAKPOINT ON THIS LINE
var stiReport = new StiReport();
// IN DEBUG, IF YOU USE THE 2014.1.bin ASSEMBLIES IT NEVER MAKES IT TO THIS LINE
// IN DEBUG, IF YOU USE THE 2013.3.bin ASSEMBLIES IT WORKS JUST FINE
stiReport.ReportName = "Never Makes It Here";
}
}
}

Hello.

Sorry, but we couldn't reproduce your issue. Do you get any error message?

Thank you.

What VS version and OS version were you using?

Hello.

We made test in Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 8.1 and Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 7.
We have made tests on other machine in Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 8.1 and we have reproduced your issue.
Also we have reproduced the issue in the Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 7.
But the crash is in the CLR. The difference of the test machines is in ReSharper. The issue is reproducible in the Visual Studio with ReSharper.
Do you use ReSharper? Could you try to recreate the solution?

Thank you.

I don't have ReSharper installed. I am running VS2012 Ultimate on Windows 8.1. Something was done between your 2013.2 and 2013.3 releases last year to eliminate this issue for us, now the same issue is back w\ your 2014.1 release.

Hello.

Did you try to create a new project?
Do you have the same issue there?
Please, let us know about results.

Thank you.

The project\solution sample I sent you was a brand new project. Is that what you are asking?

Hello.

Could you try to create a completely new project?
Is Stimulsoft assemblies installed in GAC? Please, try to install them if it's not.

Thank you.
