Hello, some of my users are getting this crash in my app:

Fatal Exception: kotlinx.coroutines.flow.internal.ChildCancelledException Child of the scoped flow was cancelled

For some reason this crash does not have a stack trace (on both Firebase and Google Play). This makes it very hard to find the cause. Could someone here help me out? I am using Kotlin 1.3.41 and Coroutines 1.3.0-M2.

Try putting a try/catch around your application's main

[Thomas]

@Dico Not sure where to put that as I have no idea where the crash occurs. I am using coroutines everywhere in my project. I’m also not able to reproduce the crash on demand so I think this would be difficult to fix. The crash occurs on app start and the second time it’s gone.

[Dico]

I said around your main, I.e. wrap all the code from the main thread in it then introspect any errors that make it there

Are you using callbackFlow or channelFlow with APIs that might continue offering values after unregistering, or have non thread-safe unregistering which could lead to race conditions where a value is offered after unregistration?

Hi, stacktraces of cancellation exceptions are missing in the release mode.

Could you please enable debug mode (https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/blob/master/docs/debugging.md) in your application and report where this exception came from?

[Thomas]

I tried making my own combineLatest operator (it was not added, see https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/1262). You can find it in the same gist. My guess it I made a mistake somewhere.

[Thomas]

No, it’s not the combineLatest operator. Still getting the exception.

[Thomas]

I think something like this is throwing the exception:

someFlow
    .switchMap { transformTheFlow(it) }
    .collect {
        doSomethingWithTheResult(it)
    }

Maybe this is related? It is a different exception but could be the same bug. https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/1334

Maybe this is related?...

Just built Kotlin coroutines myself with this fix. Unfortunately after some time I got the crash again. So this is a different issue.
