Hi, I'm using linked lists within a shared memory block to store (among other), xserver information such as display, windows ids, etc.
This app, is a bit complex. I've implemented a little malloc which returns and address within the shared memory segment, and I'm handling a bit complex and nested data structures. This hasn't been problematic, till I've been about to destroy a set of windows. This is something I can do within the process who created them, but not with any child one. Althoug my child processes, can se the memory region where windows' ids are located, as soon as I try, a segfault comes up. Been trying to somehow, tell to XCreateWindow to store window information within my memory segment but it hasn't been possible, though. In the other hand, I'm not using fork at anytime, which could posibly the source of the problem? You can see an example code of this programming model in here: http://www.geocities.com/ucho_trabajo/xml/main.c And well, I'm just about to finish and this is the only problem I'm having. I mean, I wouldn't like to change anything but the necesary to let my child process destroy this windows whether possible.
