Has the bug occured in previous versions? If yes, please specify version(s): (This option is optional, and doesn't need research. But in case you know...)
Probably not since it's a new feature.

Description of the bug:
Kill vst/samples function is very buggy, makes some vst hang and create exception long time after the button is pressed, especially the superwave plugins.

How often does it happen?:
All the time.

How to reproduce (step by step description):

I also have this with P8. I rarely use Kill VSTi buton.

Pure magic. I just relied on functions that already existed and which I expected to work. Obviously, they don't. Or P8 is buggy. Are there any other plugins which this happens with?
The same code is executed when switching between orders so I wonder why it doesn't happen then. Swapping some function calls seems to improve the situation a bit, although I have no idea why that would change anything.

Xlutop Chainer also has these kinds of problems, but I never figured out the cause. I'm not 100% sure, but it sounds plausible.

I can also confirm that it can also lead to crashes.
But it's not only P80 but all the others superwave vst's, performer, professional, trance-pro.

Ok, this should be fixed now (thanks Relabs...). 1.18.02.07 is up.

Saga Musix · August 04, 2010, 23:36:55

Please confirm that this has been fixed in OpenMPT 1.18.03.00. You may set the thread status to S=C then.

Tnx, haven't seen any bugs recently because of the button.
