Assigning std::function causes segfault

I have a strange segmentation fault I am unable to properly understand. I am creating a function object with std::bind, then assign this to a std::function object, this apparently results in a segfault.

std::function<ara::com::Future<SetShapeOutput>(const 
                    messages::test::SetShapeParams&)> SetShape_callback_;

void set_SetShape_callback(const std::function<ara::com::Future<SetShapeOutput>(
        const messages::test::SetShapeParams&)>& callback) {
    SetShape_callback_ = callback;
}

[somewhere else]

algo_service_.GetshapeServiceSkeleton()->set_SetShape_callback(
                            std::bind(&ShapeServerAraBinding::on_call_serviceshapeService_methodSetShape,
                                    this, std::placeholders::_1));



// definition
ara::com::Future<adaptiveautosarapplication::shapeServiceSkeleton::SetShapeOutput>
                on_call_serviceshapeService_methodSetShape(
                    const messages::test::SetShapeParams& araSetShapeParams);

And the stacktrace from gdb showing the assignment causes a segfault:

Solution

  • The problem cause is shown in the following line:

    #3  0x000055c45c26009f in shapeServer::adaptiveautosarapplication::shapeServiceSkeleton::set_SetShape_callback(std::function<ara::com::Future<serviceInterfaces:
:test::shapeService::SetShapeOutput> (messages::test::SetShapeParams const&)> const&) (this=0x0, callback=...)

    Note shapeServiceSkeleton this=0x0.
