this is *not* an exception. its caused by a piece of code in cairo uses the assert() macro to detect fatal conditions. if they are detected, the macro calls abort() and the program is killed. it is completely different from the C++ exception mechanism, except that both end up using abort() under various circumstances. _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
