Hi nicolai
The same on windows. Every RoassalExample crashes immeditly.
Simple Trachel examples are working (TRCanvasExample>>circle)
but as soon as some text is drawn (TRCanvasExample>>label)
the vm crashes.
For example, in
CairoFreeTypeFontRenderer>>#glyphsOf: aString from: start to: end
at:
self freeGlyphs: ptr.
If I remove this line, or replace it with
ptr free.
The VM crashes at some
primitiveFFIAllocate call
But I don't understand the whole implementation behind the new FFI
(don't understand what are the difference between #getHandle,
#pointer, #gcpointer, ... what memory
is garbage collected,. what not or when the memory should be freed by
cairos api (like void cairo_glyph_free (void *glyphs)).
Thanks for asking.
Esteban should document all that.
I think that we need more people looking at it and pushing the
documentation.
