We get an error if the XML document is not well-formed, but not if
there is an unrecognized property.  There are lots of good reasons for
keeping it that way.

 > Anyone know of an OpenSource alternative to XMLSpy

Tons -- nearly all good XML software is open source.  The problem
would be writing and maintaining DTDs or schemas for all our possible
information variants.  I've worked on a lot of SGML and XML systems,
and I've seen people spend a lot of money on that approach, but I've
never seen them get any substantial benefit from it.

I have a guess about what the problem might be -- it could be an STL

I am not seeing that with my MSVC build. I can see the weather boxes and 
click on OK without problems. But (see my previous post) there is a 
function that needs a return value. I added 'return false;' to fireItem
in FGMenuBar and perhaps this is your problem with gcc.

I can guess at a couple of possibilities -- first, if you're using G++
2.95, the STL stuff could be broken somehow; and second, if you're
using plib 1.6 rather than the CVS head, there could be a bug with the
userdata that was fixed later.  Could you add a few print statements
around the problem line and let me know what you see?

David,

With the new "Air" dialog box, I'm running into a segfault.  What I do
to trigger the crash is first bringe up the "Air" dialog box, then I
examine the data and decide I don't want to change anything, then I
click ok.

The back trace lists a bunch of internal PUI calls and then dies in
GUI/dialog.cc:action_callback(), specifically at line #24.  I'm
guessing that info->bindings[i] doesn't have a valid object so when it
tries to call the fire() method it segfaults.

Is that enough for you to go on, or should I dig deeper and find
additional info for you?

I'm getting this exact same behavior all three weather dialog boxes.

Thanks,

Curt.

Ahhh, that would explain why I haven't been able to get them to work
yet.  Yes, if we stay with the way we have been doing this, we should
look for files relative to globals->get_fg_root() since you can
specify the root via command line options and probably via properties
somehow too.

The weather dialogs are not found unless the FG_ROOT environment variable is

Curt, David

I already messed a bit around with gdb, but it always died. Mean issue was I
set --fg_root= instead of fg-root= :-(((

It now does run. However, after selecting the button in question, flightgear
never dies completely. Instead, it hangs infinitely. I had to kill it
manually.

The trace did not say much
$ where

and: not found

-

However, I made another run using the graphical GDB frontend. FG hangs
again, but I find from the graphical window it's in dialog.cxx, line 26
(something with the new GUI). Maybe this helps:

--
-   23->get_group(FGSubsystemMgr::INIT)->get_subsystem("gui");
-   24  gui->setCurrentWidget(info->widget);
-   25  for (int i = 0; i < info->bindings.size(); i++)

Typically you run fgfs from within gdb.

Something like

bash$ gdb fgfs
gdb> run --fgfs-option1 --fgfs-option2

Then when you get a crash you can type:

gdb> where

To get a back trace.

Curt.

That looks like it's just program output.  Can you get a proper
backtrace in gdb or some other debugger?


All the best,

RE: [Flightgear-devel] ANN: New Menu Bar; dialogs for clouds, winds, and air

2003-01-18 Thread Michael Basler
David,

here's a report from a guinea pig.

Recent CVS code including XML menu stuff compiles and runs fine on a
Windows/Cygwin system with GCC2.95. I am really glad someone started to work
on it. Hopefully, we can reduce the command line options to nearly zero.
We'll gratefully add the new menu entries to the docs and delete menu
options for them :-).

One issue: When I make a selection from the Weather menu the dialog box
opens as it should. However, after only pressing either OK or Cancel the
simulator silently dies with a stackdump as follows:
_
token = OBJECT_BASE name = 942035.btg
load() base = ./Scenery
Loading tile ./Scenery/w130n30/w123n37/942067
token = OBJECT_BASE name = 942067.btg
token = OBJECT name = 59CA.btg
  5 [main] FGFS 4012 handle_exceptions: Exception:
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
   5512 [main] FGFS 4012 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to
fgfs.exe.sta
ckdump
_

Any idea?

Regards, Michael

Yes, I need to reinstate show/hide menu -- thanks for the reminder.

David,

Thanks for working on this ... great news!

One thing I'd like to have is a --disable-menu/--enable-menu option so
that we can have the menu start off by default if we want.

Regards,

Curt.
