Hi Matthias,
I am getting a crash in both Windows and OSX, on version 0.24.6, when using the menu Edit > Selection > Make Cell.
To reproduce this bug:
- place the file SiEPIC-EBeam.gds (https://www.dropbox.com/s/slr5i1wvdh3j4z7/SiEPIC-EBeam.gds?dl=1) in your "libraries" folder.
- create a new layout
- instance SiEPIC-EBeam > ebeam_y_1550. Click. Click. to place twice.
- area select both
- Edit > Selection > Make Cell, and a name
- crash occurs

And a couple more very simple GDS libraries, each containing only 1 box on layer 1:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/uknongiszfspnig/test2.GDS?dl=1
They also cause it to crash when adding two of them and making a cell.
Hi Matthias,
It turns out that it crashes for the simplest test. Fresh install. Empty user folder. Add 2 circles. Make cell. Crash.

Hi Lukas,
thanks for that notice. Good news is that I can reproduce it on Linux too. Which means that the MacOS build is comparable to the other builds.
Apparently "Make cells" is broken since some time when instances are involved. I'll try to fix that ASAP.
Best regards,
Matthias
Hi Matthias,
I'm glad I'm able to report a bug that you can reproduce! And even more glad that it isn't my SiEPIC Python code that was causing it. Possibly some of the other crashing issues I've had with PCells may originate from this bug too...
Good luck and thanks for looking into it!
p.s. we have an edX class presently designing using your tool, and our tape-out is May 1. I made a video to showing the "make cell" option, which strangely worked when I made the first video.
I then made a 2nd video that avoids the use of the Make Cell.
Hi Matthias,
I could reproduce this problem using the Mac OSX binary package (0.24.6) I provided.
The video by Lukas was useful to trace the steps quickly.
Once you made a patch release, I'll also rebuild it ASAP.

Hi all,
I was able to locate and fix the problem. I'll release it soon with 0.24.7.
It was not readily reproducible always but it could be seen in valgrind. The reason was a deleted object in the array instance cache.
Thanks for the bug report and sorry for the inconvenience.
Matthias
Thank you. I noticed this occurs during copy & paste operations, so perhaps it is the same issue.
Hi all,
A binary package of KLayout 0.24.7 for MacOS 10.10 and 10.11 has been built.
I've confirmed that this issue is solved in this version as shown in
the image file.
Kazzz
Thank you very much!
