ccminer crashs on help display

[PapaChealio]

I know you're battling with app crashes, but the latest 8.19 final release also now crashes just on display of help text:

ccminer.exe --help

...causes "ccminer has stopped working" error in Windows after displaying help text.

i think I'm the only one where ccminer doesn't crash at all.
It's really wierd.

The two places I get crashes consistently are CTRL-C to abort the miner in console and, in the latest version, via help display.

I'm using 4 x 1080Ti + 1 x 1070 with 390.65 drivers on Windows 10 x64.

No, there is hope. It's working fine here (Windows 10, Nvidia Driver 390.65)

Well we are two. And I'm running your ccminer with Linux ;) Le 25 janv. 2018 00:19, "KlausT" <notifications@github.com> a écrit : i think I'm the only one where ccminer doesn't crash at all.

To clarify, if you press CTRL-C multiple times to exit on the console, it crashes. If you just press CTRL-C once and wait 5-10 seconds (i.e. "x threads exiting, Stratum disconnected...", it exits gracefully. Also, it appears to exit gracefully when prompted via API.

Yeah, I have noticed this yesterday

Same here. Just did a ccminer --help. Also, when launching ccminer with no arguments =>crash.
Tried ccminer -a lyra2z (yeah did not see that it was not supported) => crash.

I would think that there is an issue when trying to use no algo or an unknown algo.

I got this issue too on a 1070 TI rig with driver 390.11 on linux.
ccminer branch cuda9.
When i run ccminer, it just saying some "about" text and stop. I cant see the help.
This is the output:

ccminer --help
