Jan> Staring xemacs in X11 and then exiting directly with C-x Jan> C-c gives a segmentation violation: Jan, thanks for the detailed report. Can you tell us the link command used to build XEmacs, please? I'd like to know if input-method-motif.o is linked or not. You can look at src/Makefile, input-method-motif.o should appear in the variable extra_objs defined around line 29. Or if you have a make log, it'll be in there. Or you can rm src/xemacs and make again. If you have the inclination, you could also build with Glynn's patch (attached) applied to src/input-method-motif.c, and test. (If input-method-motif.o is not linked, it's a waste of time, though.) Glynn> Did the input-method-motif.c patch get applied to 21.4.0? No. I was hoping for some experience with the patch, but I guess I'm just going to take Valdis as a representative sample, apply it to 21.4.1, and pray. Glynn> This stack trace looks familiar (although there isn't any Glynn> reference to MULE in the configure command). There also is no reference to XmIm* in the stack trace. (In fact, no Xm* anything!) Your patch won't help here, I bet---input-method-motif probably is not linked into Jan's XEmacs. :-/ BTW, thanks for fielding questions on c.e.x, I want to be there but haven't found the time yet. :-/ You didn't ask for a wild-ass guess, but here it is anyway: Could XEmacs, specifically x_delete_frame(), be systematically passing something incorrect to XtDisplayOfObject, which passes it along to XtIsSubclass? Maybe because what XEmacs gets from Motif is subtly different from what it would get from plain Xt? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Glynn's patch: Index: src/input-method-motif.c =================================================================== RCS file: /usr/CVSroot/XEmacs/xemacs/src/input-method-motif.c,v retrieving revision 1.9.2.3 diff -u -r1.9.2.3 input-method-motif.c --- src/input-method-motif.c 2000/01/26 12:34:03 1.9.2.3 +++ src/input-method-motif.c 2001/03/29 23:08:54 ＠＠ -94,6 +94,13 ＠＠ /* Nothing to do */ } +/* Callback for the deleting frame. */ +static void +XIM_delete_frame (Widget w, XtPointer client_data, XtPointer call_data) +{ + XmImUnregister ((Widget) client_data); +} + void XIM_init_frame (struct frame *f) { ＠＠ -152,6 +159,8 ＠＠ NULL); XmFontListEntryFree (&fontlistEntry); + + XtAddCallback (w, XmNdestroyCallback, XIM_delete_frame, (XtPointer) w); } void -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5091 _________________ _________________ _________________ _________________ What are those straight lines for?
