Thankyou Chad and Aslak, those patches seem to have worked perfectly
- time to apply the threshold crank! [rubs hands gleefully]

I've got a version of rcov up at github (sudo gem install
spicycode-rcov --source=http://gems.github.com/) incorporating many of
the fixes for rcov segfaults. So far none of the old standard
crashes have crept back up. Give it a try and let me know how it
works for you.

Hi all,
I appreciate that this is not an RSpec question, but I wondered if
anyone
out there can offer some pointers. We're using the latest versions
of RSpec
and RCov, and ruby --version says this (on the Ubuntu build server):
ruby 1.8.6 (2008-07-17 patchlevel 279) [x86_64-linux]
We're getting intermittent (yes, intermittent!) segfaults from the
build
when running code coverage.
It works on my (OS X 10.4) machine ;)
I can't see how to report bugs with RCov - the FAQ 'your question
here'[1]
doesn't offer my anywhere to type anything. It's also suggested
elsewhere on
the site that you can report issues on the release notes page[2],
and I can
see plenty of other peoples' feedback, but again I can't see any
way to
offer any of my own.
I must be missing something really obvious here - can anyone help
me to get
in touch with whatever RCov 'community' exists?
Failing that - any good resources / tips for working around these
segfault
issues - any 'no go areas' we can just avoid in our specs? I
noticed, for
example, that one of our projects consistently segfaulted on this
line:
/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/mocks/message_expectation.rb:41: [BUG]
Segmentation fault
Any pointers greatly appreciated.
cheers,
Matt
