crashing on timeout about node-libcurl

[JCMais]

Do you have a code sample that I can use?

Check if the following crashes too, and post the output:

var Curl   = require( 'node-libcurl' ).Curl,
    util  = require( 'util' );

var curl = new Curl();

//http://stackoverflow.com/a/904609/710693
curl.setOpt( Curl.option.URL, "10.255.255.1" );
curl.setOpt( Curl.option.CONNECTTIMEOUT, 3 );

console.log( util.inspect( process.versions ) );
console.log( util.inspect( Curl.getVersion() ) );

curl.perform();

curl.on( 'error', function() {
    console.log( util.inspect( arguments ) );
    this.close();
});

Which version of Node.js are you using?

Probably related to joyent/libuv#1278

I have tried versions 0.10.28, 0.10.29, 0.10.33; they all die the same way. In fact I have to use windbg to even get the call stack.

This issue is occurring at the actual time of close, even before retrying the connection.

From what I could check after some tests, apparently, it's a issue with the compiler optimizations which most of the time means there is something wrong with the code...
I will try to get a patch for that issue tomorrow. (for now, I will just disable the optimizations)

In the meantime you can change the files binding.gyp and deps\curl-for-windows\common.gypi to remove the compiler optimization and rebuild the module.

Thank you for the insight, but I recompiled with the settings in your gist and still encounter the crash.

This code sample crashes for me, with the following output

F:>node test.js
{ http_parser: '1.0',
node: '0.10.33',
v8: '3.14.5.9',
ares: '1.9.0-DEV',
uv: '0.10.29',
zlib: '1.2.3',
modules: '11',
openssl: '1.0.1j' }
'libcurl/7.34.1-DEV OpenSSL/1.0.1e zlib/1.2.8 libssh2/1.4.3_DEV'

@codehero can you check if this issue is fixed for you in the develop branch?

[codehero]

I'm afraid I've abandoned the use of node-libcurl in my application. I've no longer got the time to look at it, apologies. Good luck.

[JCMais]

No problems! And thank you for your help.
