[perl-win32-gui-users] Can't call method STORE on an undefined value during global destruction
When some of my Win32::GUI programs exit, I get the above error message. Trapping the error (via %SIG) gives no useful information, as caller() reports that the error occurred at main.pl, line 0. Searching the web, I found a tantalizing almost-solution in this thread: http://old.nabble.com/Crash-with-perl-5.10-and-Win32%3A%3AGUI-1.6-td16523383.html [ http://goo.gl/UhcgE ] In this thread, one Jeremy White discovers the problem, apparently solves it, then writes: I think the solution is straightforward but don't want to commit the code yet. To which Robert May replies, Thanks for the report and taking the time to look into this. I've not had a chance to look at what you've done yet, but should get some time in the next couple of weeks. And that's the end of it. This thread is from May 2008; the last update of Win32::GUI was in February 2008. I feel somewhat like the person who stumbled upon the famous note in the margin of Pierre de Fermat's book. What is the solution to this puzzle? And, will there ever be an update to Win32::GUI? -- Eric J. Roode -- What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!

Odd, reading your own posts from the past:) The code to fix the crash was committed. What is the solution to this puzzle? And, will there ever be an update to Win32::GUI? I still get the Can't call method STORE on an undefined value during global destruction now and again and have never managed to track down the actual cause Yes, there should be a new build. There have been a few things committed since the last build including the ability to build Win32::GUI under a 64 bit compiler. It's easy enough to build Win32::GUI from source. Rob still reading the list? Aldo? Cheers, jez. -- What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!
