That isn't a crash. It's VirtualGL being nice and preventing a crash by catching the fact that the X window disappeared without the application explicitly calling XDestroyWindow(). In other words, it's a feature, not a bug. From VirtualGL's point of view, it actually is an error, because if the application never calls XDestroyWindow(), then VirtualGL never has a chance to shut down the virtual window instance (which, if using the VirtualGL transport, would also shut down the connection to vglclient.) In order to prevent it, the application should catch the WM_DELETE_WINDOW message from the window manager and shut down its window cleanly. See glxspheres.c in the VirtualGL source for an example of how to do this (although that source code shows how to do it with Xlib, not xcb, I assume it would be similar with xcb.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
