[comp.windows.open-look] Problem with program dumping core in Xview code.

csb@gdwb.oz.au (Craig Bishop) (05/20/91)

I have a program written using the Guide and it is now consitently
dumping core in a particular place. I make a selection from a
scrolling list after which the program dumps core, sometimes I
get the following errors before the core dump,

    XView warning: Object 0x26310, invalid object
        (embedding seal incorrect), xv_get
    XView warning: Object 0x26310, invalid object
        (embedding seal incorrect), xv_get

I also get the

        Input queue lock broken!

appearing on the console when the core dump occurs.

The core file indicates that the crash occurred very deep down in
the xview code.

I have tried lots of thing all of which have failed. Can anyone
enlighten me.

Thanks.
