[Question about trace format] Could not recognize stack trace/backtrace

[annndruha]

Hi, while i debug my NodeMCU i have a error with stacktrace, i download extension but it seems like it cannot recognize the error format.

I tried different copy+paste segments of full exception text, but it seems like cut off exception to fixed lines.

Exception Decoder log:

Could not recognize stack trace/backtrace

Paste exception to decode...

Can the extension recognize this format?

Thanks for the quality bug report. I will look into your stack trace this week. Could you share your sketch code or its simplified version that produces the stack trace?

this week.

Of course, this can be a bug in this decoder extension, but for now, you might want to look into #12.

Shure, full code: NodeMCU_BPM180_DHT11.ino.txt (NodeMCU + BPM180+ DHT11)

Thanks for reply, feel free to close issue because i don't sure that is decoder problem.

I was able to reproduce the error with a smaller traceback!

Because of the server layer, I didn’t find error right away. The error was in this function

float value = bmp.readTemperature();

After move this function in simple loop block:

void loop() {
  auto value = bmp.readTemperature();
  Serial.println(value);
}

I have a smaller traceback

I think, if you want to reproduce full error backtrace you don't need BPM180, because error is shown if wiring is wrong (or missing BPM180).

I have a similar issue. No matter what I copy/paste, it does not recognize the stack trace. It would be nice if the extension could output some progress, like

successfully detected the cut marker start
successfully detected the cut marker end
successfully detected the exception context
successfully detected the stack trace marker start
successfully detected the stack trace marker end
[...]

or, in an error case

missing the cut marker start
missing the cut marker end
missing the stack trace marker start
missing the stack trace marker end
[...]

In my case, I think the bug is in Arduino IDE, because it only copies what is currently visible on the screen, and not what actually has been selected [probably this bug]. That's a pity. My traceback is several dozens of lines long.

Also,

is not very helpful, because I don't know whether this is the start or the end of the cut.
