Hi Laurent,

Did you find some time to look further into the mono/monobjc issue on snow leopard ?  We have someone working on the problem as well (unfortunately no fix yet), so if you want to share some findings, feel free.

And very strange, but nobody seems to be interested at the mono side.  The bug report does not show any movement.  Any idea on how we can trigger the nice mono people to look into the issue ?

Best regards,
Miguel

@Laurent: Did you get a chance to try out the modified sample app that Kenny created?

 

If so, what is your feeling? Does it indeed look like a Mono problem related to garbage collection?

 

There doesn't seem to be any action in the bugzilla report

I have taken the liberty to change the severity to "Major" (actually it should even be "Critical", IMHO), but I get a feeling we may be weeks or months away from a reply or fix. No other developers seem to be confirming the problem, which is weird.

 

I'm getting more and more questions from users who have upgraded to Snow Leopard and can no longer use our software.

 

@Kenny: Did you find out anything more on this? Any clues on a work-around.

 

Thanks all!

Franky

Hi,

Me again.
I narrowed it down a bit more.
I adjusted the SimpleCocoaApp MonoObjc sample. I removed all unrequired stuff, and just kept 1 button connected to an action in HelloController.
Clicking the button will open the default about panel, sleep for 1 millisec, and then force Garbage Collection.
This ALWAYS causes the crash on Snow Leopard, and works without any issues on Leopard.

Note that I didn't do anything with threading (excluding default Mono/MonobjC threads) in this sample.
You can find the sample app + sourcecode attached to the original bug report:

I hope someone here can help me.

Feel free to contact me if there are any questions.
Thanks in advance,

- Kenny

Hello,
 
@Franz:
- Can you append the stack trace and all the information to the this
bug entry (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537764) ?
- Are you able to get a small sample application (only with the
awakeFromNib call) method that exhibits the crash, so I can
investigate ?
 
Regards, Laurent Etiemble.

ith any attachments.
