[comp.soft-sys.andrew] org core dump

nsb@THUMPER.BELLCORE.COM (Nathaniel Borenstein) (12/16/89)

Run ez on a normal file.  Insert an org file (e.g. example1.org from the
atk/org source directory).  Then position yourself after the org inset
and hit ^H.  You'll get asked "Really delete inset?", which is nice, but
if you say yes, you'll get a core dump -- at least on a Sun3 running
SunOS 4.0.3.  -- Nathaniel

Thanks for the report.

That bug is in aptv_FinalizeObject and has been tackled.  The fix is on
the Xtape(R4) and will be in the final patch (if there is going to be
one). 

For general edification, the bug will cause a core-dump on a Sun when
any of these objects/applications is destroyed:
calc,bush,org,tree,suite,chart.
