Research direction

Start by opening the linked IP-XACT example, such as wb_slave_spi_master.1.0.xml, in XmlNotepad and confirm the crash. Trace the file-opening path to determine where this format fails; done means the example opens without crashing or reports an error instead.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The tool crashes without any error message for every IP-XACT (IEEE 1685) format file I have tried to open.

There are many examples here, e.g., https://github.com/kactus2/ipxactexamplelib/blob/master/tut.fi/communication.bridge/wb_slave_spi_master/1.0/wb_slave_spi_master.1.0.xml.
