[SDL + TKD] Seg fault from creating DirectoryDialog
Well, to start, I'm trying to create a mp3 player for
"educational purposes".
I'm using DerelictSDL(SDL_MIXER) as a library for the backend and
TKD for the GUI.
I have two objects to represent the two. The constructor for the
sdl one contains the syntax for loading the DerelictSDL
modules(DerelictSDL2.load()) and to initialize the SDL library
(SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING)), and the constructor for the TKD
application initializes the sdl object.
// constructor for tkd
this() {
Sdl sdl = new Sdl();
}
//constructor for sdl
this(){
DerelictSDL2.load();
/*etc...*/
//
and I set a command function to a button that creates the
DirectoryDialog.
at least, that's what it was supposed to do.
Whole error is: http://codepad.org/C2l4rUel
and gdb spews out a segmentation fault error:
http://codepad.org/X6CqH3vK
That, I think, revealed a threading conflict between the two
libraries.
Can anybody with enough knowledge point me to the right
direction? or just confirm what I have?

That's dub throwing an exception when trying to run the built executable. As shown here: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dub/blob/master/source%2Fdub%2Fgenerators%2Fbuild.d#L464 I would suggest building the application without using dub then run the program through a debugger to find the location in the source where it's actually seg-faulting. I personally use this one: http://www.affinic.com/?page_id=109.

I built the program using the compiler and debugged it with the C::B gui version of gdb, and it spewed out information about call stacks and things that, I confess, I have no idea what the hell it is: http://codepad.org/Bj3y6tqr and it seems to point to line 123 in tcl.d as shown here: http://picpaste.com/pics/Screenshot_from_2014-11-03_06_53_17-C6eIWp7k.1414969454.png And now, as I said before, don't know what this is exactly.

Looks like a threading error somewhere. What version of Tcl/Tk are you linking against? Are you using threads in your program? Tcl/Tk can be a pain with threading as i've read. There exists thread-friendly versions as seen here: http://www.tcl.tk/doc/howto/compile.html Notice the --enable-threads switch. I don't really know what to suggest. Try reducing the program down until you've found where the issue stops happening. It may be an incompatibility with SDL?

I tested removing the SDL part of the code and built it and there were no threading issues. Maybe it is as you say an incompatibility with SDL I'll try and think about this for a while Thanks for the help sir.

Here's the main file: http://codepad.org/hu4r0ExB and Here's the module: http://codepad.org/ikXAzfdg Dependencies are DerelictSDL and Tkd. It's the most simple one I got that reproduces the error.

It's the most simple one I got that reproduces the error. You might start by adding a call to Mix_Init after SDL_Init and before calling any other Mix_* functions. SDL_Init doesn't know anything about the SDL_mixer library. See [1] for details (and don't forget the corresponding Mix_Quit [2]).

Instead of doing: SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING); do: SDL_Init(0); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_TIMER); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_AUDIO); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_JOYSTICK); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_HAPTIC); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_GAMECONTROLLER); SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_EVENTS); Initialising the following exhibits the crash. // SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); So there must be an incompatibility with the video subsystem and tcl/tk.

So it seems. Thank you very much for helping me. You were a big help.
