gcfclient can be made to crash reliably with the "Trims text in the information window" option set when compiled against 1.2.10.
This was reported on #crossfire, and I have been able to reproduce it reliably (grab lots of items, and repeatedly pickup and drop them). Since this appears to be a GTK bug, which is presumably not present under gtk2, I therefore suggest that the patch which is connected to bug #1423605 - https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1423605&group_id=13833&atid=113833 as a work around. Basically I am adding #if GTK_MAJOR_VERSION > 1 ... #endif around the trimming code. (although there are also a couple of minor cleanups too). The reason I am posting this here, is to ask if there is a better way to do this (it works fine for me running gtk 1.2, but does it break windows builds)? Presumably 2.0 will compile gcfclient against gtk2, so there will be no further issue with this; however since this doesn't seem likely to be the case with 1.9 some way to stop it crashing seems to be in order. _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
