I've made some (a lot) more tests, and concluded that the culprit was the "enabling" of extended devices that causes the segfault.
Here is a C code that enables the extended devices (then fires up the InputDialog to check they are enabled): initialize_input_devices.c <http://gtk.10911.n7.nabble.com/file/n85894/initialize_input_devices.c> I tried translating it like this my $display=$window->get_display; my @list=($display->list_devices()); for(my $i=0;$i<$#list;$i++){ my $name=$list[$i]->name; my $result=$list[$i]->set_mode('GDK_MODE_SCREEN'); print "activating device \# $i, name=$name result=$result\n"; } but I guess I am missing the equivalent of the "tmp_list->data". Any idea? Alternatively, I'd be happy to learn how to make the above C code into a function that can be called from perl (through XS magic, I guess). Any pointer on how to do that? -- View this message in context: http://gtk.10911.n7.nabble.com/segfault-using-extension-events-in-Gtk2-s-scribble-pl-tp85892p85894.html Sent from the Gtk+ - Perl mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
