This sounds similar to the crashes reported to me by users of my app (I reported this case on this list in January) where crashes happen only on El Capitan and are related to using app in full screen or new split view. It seems that El Capitan version changed something internally, because searching on the net finds many similar issues. For example Atom editor crashes: https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/9692 https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/9584
I know Atom is not a GTK+ app, but I believe that the crashes are related. The fix for these particular crashes in Atom are explained here: https://github.com/atom/electron/pull/3588 Quote: "Since EL Capitan it is possible that the methods of delegate would get called after the window has been closed." Could something like this be a case for GTK+ code too? I know this is just speculation, but I hope it might help. I can not upgrade my system to El Capitan (so I can keep supporting older versions of OS X), so I can not test the crashes myself.

The gtk version I'm using is 2.24.29. I'm able to reproduce the problem myself: it seems to happen only when you maximize then unmaximize a window (or maximize then use the close button). And it doesn't happen every time; I had a work away at maxing and unmaxing various windows for a few minutes before I got the crash. I'm attaching the Apple problem report. Not as informative as one would like, I know, but it does seem to show that the problem lies with GTK rather than in my own code. When the crash occurs I'm not doing anything substantive with the app, just resizing or closing windows. The segfault occurs in the function updateTrackingRect in GdkQuartzView.c. Any suggestions for a fix would be much appreciated. -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University _______________________________________________ Gtk-osx-users-list mailing list Gtk-osx-users-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-osx-users-list
