Bug in Nov-2002 Hugs with graphics library
The attached program crashes the November 2002 hugs/winhugs. A graphics window appears, but when the mouse is moved over it (generating graphics events), hugs crashes. John Hughes

I encountered something similar on Unix, which appears to be due to a
space leak in the graphics library. The program starts to slow down
and/or increase CPU usage, then eventually terminates due to GC
failure. Increasing the heap size will allow the program to run longer
before terminating.

Thanks - this, for reasons yet known, only applies to the freshly built hugs/winhugs binaries that were included in the installer you're using. Building from source just now (with the same compiler version, but on a different box), doesn't elicit this crash. Odd. I'll probably end up re-building the installer - will try to attend to this sometime tonight (local time.) --sigbjorn ----- Original Message ----- From: John Hughes To: hugs-bugs@haskell.org Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2002 16:55 Subject: Bug in Nov-2002 Hugs with graphics library The attached program crashes the November 2002 hugs/winhugs.
