Hello

see sdk docd for Kern Exec 3:

This panic is raised when an unhandled exception occurs. Exceptions have many causes, but the most common are access violations caused, for example, by dreferencing NULL. Among other possible causes are: general protection faults, executing an invalid instruction, alignment checks, etc.

, basically you just need t

o go checking that you are not using NULL pointers. Easiest way is to set all pointers to NULL after deletion and before using them check that is the pointer is pointing to the NULL or some real location.

Other common reason is double deletion, there some part of the application is deleting some objects that are own by some other class, that will try also delete them.

These types of errors can sometimes be really hard to find, and very annoying.

Happy hunting
