Your experiences with KERN-EXEC 3

The brief description for KERN-EXEC 3 panic in the SDK is vague. From first-hand experience, could people over here be kind enough to describe their experiences with KERN-EXEC 3? In which particular scenarios did you bump into KERN-EXEC 3? How did you go about debugging and finding the bug? Thanks. |

I have encountered this problem at two places.
1. at the start of s60 3rd ed fp1 emualtor, which i dont think have to do anything from the developer.
2. when i use the thread in my application, and didnt close it properly. After closing and freeing all resources this problem was resolved.

Not enough stack size. Some advanced dialogs, e.g. in UIQ3, require that you grow the default stack size in the MMP file.

Ahh... KERN-EXEC 3
Ideally, it should have been split up in at least a couple of sub categories, but was never done. I can think of the following:
1. You've run out of stack space.
2. Accessing memory that's already been deallocated. E.g. accessing a deleted object.
3. Address space violation (similar to 2). Trying to access memory across process boundary, i.e. a server that you've written tries to directly read raw pointer passed from the client application
4. Accessing data that's NOT on word aligned boundaries

hi
you can got KERN-EXEC 3 by one or more reason. like if you are opening a file
but file is not in your program.
and This panic is raised when an unhandled exception occurs. Exceptions have many causes, but the most common are access violations caused, for example, by dereferencing NULL. Among other possible causes are: general protection faults, executing an invalid instruction, alignment checks,etc

Thanks, guys, for your suggestions.
I am not sure what exactly was the problem for me. I created a new project, copied code line-by-line from the original project, compiled, and test. It works perfect.
