Michael,
Thank you for your report. I'm am sorry to hear of the problems you
reported. The following script repeatedly failed for me after 30 windows
were opened, although i was not able to reproduce the SIGSEGV that you
reported. In my case, I got errors telling me that Internet Explorer
itself had failed.
Bret
require 'watir'
@ie = []
50.times do | n |
puts n; $stdout.flush
@ie << Watir::IE.new_process
end
@ie.each {|ie| ie.close}
