Segmentation Fault in csv::internals::ThreadSafeDeque<csv::CSVRow>::~ThreadSafeDeque

[tonjif]

I have been using CSVReader in a function like this:

void load_trajectory_dataset(std::string& trajectory_dataset_path, TrajectoryDataset& trajectory_dataset) {
    csv::CSVFormat format;
    format.delimiter(',')
        .header_row(0);
    
    /* Create Reader */
    csv::CSVReader reader(trajectory_dataset_path, format);
    
    /* Value for each row */
    integer_type user;
    floating_point_type latitude, longitude, timestamp;
    
    /* Iterate all rows */
    for (csv::CSVRow& row: reader) {
        user = row["user"].get<integer_type>();
        latitude = row["latitude"].get<floating_point_type>();
        longitude = row["longitude"].get<floating_point_type>();
        timestamp = row["timestamp"].get<floating_point_type>();
        
        /* Save information */
        trajectory_dataset[user].emplace_back(latitude, longitude, timestamp);
    }
}

When returning from this function, a Segmentation Fault is encountered in the destructor of csv::internals::ThreadSafeDequecsv::CSVRow, csv::internals::ThreadSafeDequecsv::CSVRow::~ThreadSafeDeque. The LLDB back trace is as follows:

I was wondering whether pointers were used in csv::internals::ThreadSafeDeque, but I couldn't find any when I read csv::internals::ThreadSafeDeque at csv.hpp:5903:15 . What else could be the cause of the invalid address?

Thanks for reporting this. ThreadSafeDeque is a generic container, and in this case it is used to hold CSVRow objects, which do contain pointers.

Closing because nobody else has reported this issue. A segfault involving 0x0 during object destruction in an object that uses the implicitly-defined C++ destructor is unlikely a problem with this library's code.
