Ever since I installed the .NET Framework 4.5, my application has been experiencing pretty consistent app crashes whenever the SyntaxEditor method to open a file is called. The specific exception, as reported by Visual Studio 2013 is:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.ExecutionEngineException' occurred in ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.Net20.dll
I see the following two events in the Windows Application event log:
Event 1023:
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 73FAA85B (73ED0000) with exit code 80131506.
Event 1000:
Faulting module name: clr.dll, version: 4.0.30319.34209, time stamp: 0x5348961e
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x000da85b
Faulting process id: 0x2648
Faulting application start time: 0x01d047961f938855
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\clr.dll
I see this with Framework versions 4.5.1 and 4.5.2, on both 32 and 64-bit versions. I uninstalled 4.5 and reinstalled 4.0 and the problem disappeared. Wondering if you have seen this and can provide a patch to SE? I've opened a bug report on Microsoft Connect, but I'm not hopeful
