pspDebugInstallErrorHandler causes 80020001

[johnsto]

I'm betting this is really simple but it's driving me mad.

My game works fine, however I'm now trying to add an exception handler to catch an occasional crash that never happens when I want it to. I've done this by adding 'pspDebugInstallErrorHandler(NULL);' at the top of main() and included pspdebug.h.

When I try to run it however, I get the dreaded '80020001' message. Comment out that line, and it runs perfectly.

Appropriate Makefile lines:

Code: Select all

CFLAGS = -G4 -Wall -O2
CXXFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -fno-rtti
ASFLAGS = $(CFLAGS)

STDLIBS= -lds -losl -lpng -lz \
		-lpspsdk -lpspctrl -lpspumd -lpsprtc -lpspgu -lpspaudiolib -lpspaudio -lm

Help!

Hi,

i have sort of the same problem my game just gets black when i do the function you also use but i have had your problem:

what i did to solve it is in these two lines:

PSP_MODULE_INFO("Boxy 2", 0x1000, 1, 1);
PSP_MAIN_THREAD_ATTR(PSP_THREAD_ATTR_USER | THREAD_ATTR_VFPU);

Code: Select all

 mess around with these and your problem should be fixed.

if everything works for you please let me know how you did it cuase i can't seem to get it to work :( and i have also an bug which only comes someties when you play for 20 minutes :S

Hmm, using:

Code: Select all

PSP_MODULE_INFO("test", 0x1000, 1, 1);
PSP_MAIN_THREAD_ATTR(0);

Sort of works - it loads up immediately to an exception screen saying "Coprocessor unusable", and a couple of the registers (s6 and s7) are "DEADBEEF"...

pspDebugInstallErrorHandler(NULL); would use the default
best for you to handle yourself ..just take a look at exception
sample in samples/debug and use your own like this simply
pspDebugInstallErrorHandler(myErrorHandler());

I tried that but it didn't work for me i get a black screen see my post :(

Or just use psplink and be done with it ;)

[johnsto]

Installing my own exception handler (from another piece of code) gave the same black screen and shutdown.

I have been using psplink, but unfortunately my program finds it hilarious if it only crashes when I'm not ready for it - especially when I'm not debugging!

yes maybe i should use psplink but is quite a hassel to get it running :(
