The latest! See my mail from 2020-05-07 9:38 in which I outlined the complete
installation process. Right now I am using the art backend. Both backends (art
an cairo) produces a break of the app (but with different logs)
In the meanwhile I have inserted an [NSException raise:...] into
/libs-back/Source/x11/XWindowBuffer.m
if (!wi->ximage)
{
NSLog(@"Warning: XShmCreateImage failed!");
NSLog(@"Falling back to normal XImage (will be slower).");
goto no_xshm;
}
wi->shminfo.shmid = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE,
wi->ximage->bytes_per_line * wi->ximage->height,
IPC_CREAT | 0700);
if (wi->shminfo.shmid == -1)
{
NSLog(@"Warning: shmget() failed: %m.");
NSLog(@"Falling back to normal XImage (will be slower).");
[NSException raise:NSInternalInconsistencyException format:@"asas"];
// <-- remove this
XDestroyImage(wi->ximage);
goto no_xshm;
}
to get a backtrace of what triggers the shmget() problem and got this

The corresponding code is
GSMarkupTagWindow:
==========================
- (void)platformObjectInit
{
...
NSLog(@"contentRect %@ style %d backingType %d",
NSStringFromRect(contentRect), style, backingType);
[self setPlatformObject:[_platformObject initWithContentRect:contentRect
styleMask:style backing:backingType defer:NO]];
....
}
and the output of the log line is
2020-05-08 13:42:59.862 SOSmartBrowser[29363:29363] _rootTagObject
<GSMarkupTagVBox: 0x86e5290> contentView h=-&- v=-&- <GSVBox: 0xdce1550> f={x
= 0; y = 0; width = 0; height = 0} b={x = 0; y = 0; width = 0; height = 0}
2020-05-08 11:43:19.108 SOObjectBrowser[28857:28857] contentRect {x = 20; y =
20; width = 1022; height = 1.00005e+07} style 15 backingType 2
Aha!! height = 1.00005e+07 looks a bit to large. Cocoa and the old GNUstep tree
got a long with this request. The more recent code seems to be a bit pickier.
:-)
I dived a little deeper into the code and found that the following NSView
category method produces the unreasonable values.
- (NSSize)minimumSizeForContent
{
NSRect oldFrame;
NSSize minimumSize;
/* Save the oldFrame. */
oldFrame = [self frame];
/* Resize the view to fit the contents ... this is the only
* way available in the AppKit to get the minimum size. */
[self sizeToFitContent];
/* Get the minimum size by reading the frame. */
minimumSize = [self frame].size;
/* Restore the original frame. */
[self setFrame:oldFrame];
return minimumSize;
}
more explicitly
@implementation NSControl (sizeToContent)
- (void)sizeToFitContent
{
[self sizeToFit];
}
@end
does and even more explicitly
NSButton:: sizeToFit
pico ./Source/NSControl.m
/**<p>Resizes the NSControl to fits the NSControl's cell size.</p>
<p>See Also: [NSCell-cellSize]</p>
*/
- (void) sizeToFit
{
[self setFrameSize: [_cell cellSize]];
}
It turns out that the problem occurs on all forms that have NSButtons that have
been customised with
image = [[[NSImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path] autorelease];
if (image)
{
[someButton setImage:image];
}
My first measure (ugly hack) was to do
@implementation NSControl (sizeToContent)
- (void)sizeToFitContent
{
[self sizeToFit];
NSSize size = [self frame].size;
if (size.height > 10000.0)
{
NSLog(@"Got height %f. We correct this ...", size.height);
[self setFrameSize: NSMakeSize(size.width, 24.0)]; // <-- just some
phantaise value
}
}
@end
This fixes the problem for me. The forms open and the app works nicely.
The academic question remains what makes NSControl::sizeToFit to fail so badly
for buttons with images?
Since others have hit this as well (see one of my mails from yesterday) this
should probably be addressed in the GNUstep code. Does this ring any bells?
Thanks a lot,
Andreas
