[Bug Report] Program Crashes When Using Kaitai Struct to Analyze BMP and PNG

[CooperW824]

When I use the Kaitai Struct analyzer plugin on PNGs or BMPs the program closes (I presume it's crashing) with no error messages.
I'm using the pre-built binary for Windows.

Thank you for reporting!

Yeah, it shouldn't do that. I am in the process of refactoring the build system, and there should be a few fixes in that once I finish (should be release 0.45.0), but I will test this scenario on windows before making that release.

Does the Linux one work for you?

Yeah analyzer in the Ubuntu based release works on BMPs and PNGs, but I'm still running into reliability issues when using it, it seems like the program crashes randomly when I click the arrow buttons to cycle through selections, and then other times it works fine. When the program does crash, I do get some error messages output to the terminal those can be found below.

Did this get any better in 0.46.2? I found a bug that could have been doing this, but it might have been something separate.

hmm, I accidentally auto-closed this with the way I wrote the commit. 0.46.3 definitely fixed a crash that behaved like that. Please re-open the issue if you can still reproduce the crash in 0.46.3

🎉 This issue has been resolved in version 0.46.3 🎉
