Hi all,
I’ve only started to observe this problem recently. I’m seeking some ideas on how I could possible debug this problem.
I have two computers here: Windows 10 64-bit / Windows 7 64-bit
Both machines produce the exact same behaviour – kdb+ crashes right after the following steps:

“\271\372”

With codepage 936 (GB18030). So far so good. But…
q)\chcp 65001
“Active code page: 65001”
q)\chcp
“Active code page: 65001”
q)“?”

As you can see above, right after I switch to codepage 65001 (UTF-8), the exact same Chinese string causes kdb+ to crash.
I’m having a hard time figuring out what exactly is wrong here. Whatever that I was doing above looks pretty innocent, but it keeps breaking my system due to kdb+ crashing. Any pointer on how I could debug/resolve this is appreciated!
Thanks,
Flying
