Chapter 240: One Core in Trouble, Nine Cores Watching

"Would you like us to take a look?" Xu You asked.

"Yeah, maybe we can find some problems." Lou Song also agreed.

Lin Shi knew that his level was far from that of Xu You and Lou Song, but he was also eager to help solve the problem.

In fact, at this time, Luo Wenkun didn't want Xu You and others to directly participate in this project.

After all, Luo Wenkun pays his employees a lot of salary. If they can't solve their own problems, what's the use of them?

Moreover, if Xu You, Lou Song, Lin Shi and others really solved this problem, it might embarrass these employees or make them develop the habit of relying on others for help.

But Luo Wenkun also knew that at this time, the most important thing was to solve the problem and release the Android beta version of the app.

Luo Wenkun said that he was still young and was not in a hurry to expand the company all at once.

But if you drag your feet at every step, you don’t know when you can reach your final goal.

Thinking of this, Luo Wenkun decided to let Xu You and others participate.

"Mr. Wang, my friends are all computer experts. Please explain the problem to us in detail and see if we can help you come up with a solution."

"Okay, Mr. Luo."

Although Luo Wenkun did not give a specific introduction, looking at the appearance of these people, Wang Zhi felt that they were most likely Luo Wenkun's classmates.

Since Luo Wenkun said that they are computer experts, they might be students majoring in computer science at Ji University.

But students are students after all. Without many years of practical work experience, no matter how strong their learning ability is, it is impossible for them to solve this bug so easily.

But this is the boss's friend, so the boss's orders must be carried out.

Next, Wang Zhi explained in detail the bugs in the current version of the app to Xu You and others .

Because the current version of the Xueba Community app is the Android version.

When testing, everyone used Android phones to test.

At the beginning, no one found any obvious problems.

But later, a company employee reported that the software would occasionally freeze on his phone.

Everyone thought that this was just an isolated case and might be a problem with his mobile phone configuration.

It was not until later that several more employees reported this phenomenon.

The prices of their mobile phones range from 1,000 yuan to more than 3,000 yuan, and the mobile phone chips are also different.

In this case, it cannot be explained by the insufficient configuration of the mobile phone.

After everyone held a meeting to discuss and summarize the characteristics of these mobile phones that have this bug.

Finally found the common point.

It turns out that the mobile phone chips they used were all from a certain brand.

Some people think that this may be a problem with this brand's chip, and this brand has been badly criticized on the Internet.

Although it is advertised as a "ten-core processor".

However, its performance is not as good as that of competitors' octa-core, quad-core, or even dual-core processors.

Netizens jokingly called it "When one core is in trouble, nine cores watch."

Of course, this brand of chips is actually not bad to use, and no one has reported this problem in other apps.

Even if there really are some hidden defects in this brand of chips, it is impossible for them to remake the chips or give up on these users.

We still have to start with the code part to try to solve the problem.

After a period of time, the team modified part of the code and finally fixed the bug.

But during further testing, a new bug was discovered.

That is the problem of increased app power consumption.

If the power consumption is only occasionally high, it is acceptable.

This time, the problems were very common, and the power consumption was almost twice that of the previous generation.

Faced with this situation, Wang Zhi felt that if the modifications continued in this direction, the water pipes would most likely burst completely.

"Personally, I think that if there is any modification, it should be based on the first version, because the version with fever obviously has more serious bugs."

Xu You also nodded to show his agreement.

"Yes, I agree with this idea. Mr. Wang, can you show us the detailed code?"

Wang Zhi glanced at Luo Wenkun, who quickly nodded in agreement.

Luo Wenkun certainly would not have any secrets from these friends of his.

Next, Xu You and others checked the code of the first version of the Xueba Community app.

Because this is an Android platform software, the file format used is APK format.

The programming language is developed based on Java language.

As he watched, Xu You realized that if he continued like this, it would be difficult to find the problem in a short time.

After all, the amount of code is too much, and I don’t know how long it will take to read it all.

Thinking of this, Xu You said:

"Can you lend me a computer so I can look at the codes myself?"

Lou Song also agreed after hearing this: "Lend me one too."

"Okay, Mr. Wang, please help me arrange it." Luo Wenkun said.

As he spoke, Wang Zhi instructed an employee to provide a computer to Xu You and Lou Song respectively.

Because Xu You and Lou Song both have their own unique problem-solving habits, if everyone uses the same computer to view the code, the efficiency will definitely be very low.

Lin Shi knew that even though she had a second degree in computer science, her computer skills were still not that high, so she did not follow the example of Xu You and Lou Song. Instead, she followed the others and looked at a computer, focusing on learning.

"Looking at the attitudes of these two people, are they really planning to solve the bug today?" Wang Zhixin said.

Of course, Wang Zhi also has the ability to find bugs through code.

However, as to when the bug can be located and solved.

It’s hard to say how much time it will take.

Not to mention, more serious bugs may appear later.

Although Wang Zhi didn't believe that these two young people could really find and solve the bug.

But we still provided each of them with a computer and helped them find the corresponding code files.

On this issue, Xu You and Lou Song tacitly chose not to cooperate.

It’s not that they don’t trust each other enough.

For this kind of problem, it is best to read all the code yourself.

Simply looking at a part of the code may not reveal any problems, because they may be completely correct in themselves.

Only by reading all the code can you find the key problems.
