Re: [Haskell-cafe] Threadscope 0.2.2 goes in segmentation fault on Mac Os X 10.8.3

Hi Alfredo, No dark magic as far as I recall (except in the actual bundling as a Mac app, unfortunately that required some magic, the GTK libraries don't relocate so easily :-( ). I didn't have any problems building. I compiled it with ghc 7.6.1, with the GTK libraries installed manually (there are some suggestions on how to do that at the very end of my Comprehensive Haskell Sandboxes post, http://www.edsko.net/2013/02/10/comprehensive-haskell-sandboxes/). It used to be a lot more painful (requiring the latest versions of Haskell libraries, with patches etc.) but these days the situation is a lot better. (That's not so say that problems like the one you reported don't still crop up from time to time, and can cause many a sleepless night..).

Thanks Edsko, the app is awesome and it's starting just fine. Even though this fixes my problem, it doesn't solve the root, namely why it was failing.

Can you tell me a bit more about the dark magic you used to make it work? Which GHC version did you use?

Thanks a lot, A.

I provide a ThreadScope binary on my site ( http://www.edsko.net/2013/01/24/threadscope-0-2-2/) which runs fine for me on 10.8.3.

Thanks, A.

I think I have encountered the same problem:

In my experience, anything that uses gtk is a problem on a MAC.

I still intend to do some analysis *not* using threadscope but using event-logs directly but that is at least a few weeks away.
