crash
When I run the following program, OpenSCAD crashes with the MS C++
runtime message "this application has requested the Runtime to terminate
it in an unusual way".
How coy.
I just picked an arbitrary STL file to play with. I suppose the error
could be dependent on that file. The file is OK per NetFabb. It
imports correctly into OpenSCAD and is about [100, 100, 30], so it fits
inside the "universe" cube.

// Universe cube must be bigger than part being loaded
universe_x = 1000;
universe_y = 1000;
universe_z = 1000;
// t is thickness of shell
t = 2;
// Name of part to convert to shell (must be in same directory)
part_to_shell = "d:/jon/octopus2.stl";
intersection() {
import(part_to_shell);
minkowski() {
difference () {
// Universe cube
translate([-universe_x/2, -universe_y/2, -universe_z/2 ])
cube([universe_x, universe_y, universe_z]);
// Original part
import(part_to_shell);
}
// Tool for the minkowski shell
sphere(r=t, center=true);
}
}

Hi Jon,
Could you provide the STL file as well?
Also, what version of OpenSCAD is this?

Attached. I am running 2015.03.2 (for no particularly good reason other
than inertia)

I've come across this beasty before, STL was already in my test folder,
Netfabb image also.

how difficult is it to make a general degenerate triangle test, could
stl's be filtered before
going to the existing (as is) importer ?
I'm thinking something like Heron's formula or other method for
calculating the area of
a triangle

It's not actually all that hard to detect most non-manifold STLs. I ended up writing a script in Python to detect when OpenScad outputs bad STL geometries. It stops my makefiles and forces me to tweak my sources to generate clean STLs. The script even will launch OpenScad with a generated file so that it highlights holes and internal cleavages in red, overlaid over a transparent version of the STL.
The main trick is very simply to find edges in the geometry that do not have exactly two triangles associated with them. Furthermore, my script looks for overlapping coplanar triangles with opposing normals, to find zero-width internal cleavages. I don't recall if it catches zero-area triangles, though.
My script is at https://github.com/revarbat/stl_normalize https://github.com/revarbat/stl_normalize

I got it in the mail, so I guess I am not the only one.

I tried the example using 2015.03-2 under Kubuntu 17.04. It crashed with
the following message:
CGAL error: assertion violation!
Expression : sf_old->mark()
File : /usr/include/CGAL/Convex_decomposition_3/SM_walls.h
Line : 565
Convex decomposition is part of Minkowski, so I guess that's where the
problem is. However, I did not evaluate if the input is reasonable.

Trying the same in 2017.08.21.nightly (git 959b9c4)
The program does not core dump, but you get the same error, this time in
the OpenSCAD console pane
