pygtk bug on resize . (3.77 KB, text/x-python)
2012-02-08 20:25 UTC, Esteban 		Details

Description Esteban 2012-02-08 20:24:10 UTC 
Only happens if the application has many widgets, this is more likely on application with tabs (AKA Notebooks). But I found this happens on some other escenaries.

It seems to only happen with the MS-Windows theme.

I've attached the code to reproduce this bug.

In order to reproduce this bug, you must keep resizing the window over and over again, the ram consumption will keep growing very fast and the application will crash reporting the following errors:


...\pygtk_resizing.py:133: GtkWarning: gdkgc-win32.c:828: Sav
eDC failed: La operaci├│n se complet├│ correctamente.
  gtk.main()
...\pygtk_resizing.py:133: GtkWarning: gdkgc-win32.c:968: Res
toreDC failed: La operaci├│n se complet├│ correctamente.
  gtk.main()
pnc: E**
GLib:ERROR:gmain.c:2444:g_main_dispatch: assertion failed: (current->dispatching
_sources == &current_source_link)

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Tested on:
Python 2.7
Pygtk 2.24.1 (gtk+ 2.24.8)
Windows 7
MS-Windows Theme

> (gtk+ 2.24.8)

That's old. According to http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.24/ , 2.24.10 is the last version.
Comment 3 Esteban 2012-02-09 11:29:04 UTC 
Well, Idid try the latest release from http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php and this bug was not fixed.
Comment 4 Esteban 2012-02-09 20:47:23 UTC 
It also happens if you drag the window around in an erratic way for a long time (well, a few minutes).

As I said most people wont do things like this, it's just an "easy" way to reproduce this bug (resizing is easier). But I've experience this same crash (rarely) in the daily use.
Comment 5 Dieter Verfaillie 2012-02-09 21:34:53 UTC 
This should have been fixed in 2.24.9. Seeing I never managed
to find the time to upload win32 binaries for that release and
2.24.10 win32 binaries have been uploaded just yesterday + a
matching pygtk all-in-one 2.24.2 just moments ago, I'd appreciate
it if you could test this again and report back.

Thanks!
Comment 6 Esteban 2012-02-09 22:00:41 UTC 
Thanks for your work Dieter, but yes, the bug still persist.
Comment 7 Esteban 2012-02-12 22:51:12 UTC 
Funny thing, it only happens when you set the tabs position at the bottom (notebook.set_tab_pos(gtk.POS_BOTTOM)) .
Comment 8 Esteban 2012-02-12 23:22:47 UTC 
Same thing at the right and left positions.

Sorry about the flooding.
Comment 9 Morten Welinder 2013-08-23 02:30:38 UTC 
Likely a duplicate of bug 671538.
