The infinite loop occurs when the avatar's baked textures cannot be decoded.
The problem was encountered while testing OpenJPEG v2, but it could also occur with any JPEG 2000 decoder. After running the code outside the debugger I was able to submit a rather large crash log (13 MB). I would like to create a JIRA entry with more details. Does the new JIRA entry belong under the Snowstorm or VWR project? I would happily add a description of the source code revision number to the JIRA entry. Is the following an adequate description of this revision? Changeset 13413 (1a5850ad0a74) Including a revision number with my original questions did not seem important, since the problem appeared to be present for six weeks or more. I also did not include any hardware or operating system information because the problem was occurring in source code that is common to all platforms. I tried to keep the description brief and to the point.

A stack overflow is occurring during log on with the latest viewer-development source code. See the archive for my rant on using the word "latest". The code enters an infinite loop when two methods are repeatedly calling each other. LLVOAvatarSelf::removeMissingBakedTextures calls LLVOAvatar::updateMeshTextures, which in turn calls LLVOAvatarSelf::removeMissingBakedTextures. Clearing cache has no effect. The infinite loop still occurs on the next logon. Is anyone aware of the underlying cause of the infinite loop? Is there a workaround that would avoid this infinite loop? The problem may not be new. The same infinite loop occurs with source code that I checked out six weeks ago. This certainly is not happening for everyone... if you can figure out what condition is triggering it for you, that would be good information to have.
