Crash is inevitable in all kinds of software, like you will encounter crash when using OS, Microsoft office and also AutoCAD. However, it is also unacceptable if the crashes happen frequently. In a word, the frequency of the crashes stands for the stability of software.


The reasons why software crash can be classified to two categories: one is raised by hardware, such as insufficient memory; another is caused by software, for example, illegal operation of the software, memory leak. For ZWCAD, the causes would probably focus on software. The crash may happen on the occasions like too large and complicated data to deal with, incompatible with other software like eDataSecurity Management on Acer, or open and edit some special drawing created by other CAD software like AutoCAD.

 

To solve crash issue, we finally need to reply on the optimization of codes to deal with the exceptions well. But before this, we can do something to help our customers to check the reason, and find some work-arounds.


Crash has many names like hang, no response, crash, exit with no reason, shutdown suddenly and so on.
