[fxruby-users] FXTable segfaults after multiple setTableSize calls

[DeZonia, Barry]

The app fails for me too selecting either button (after 8-20 times).

Windows, Ruby 1.8.2-14 final, fxruby 1.2.2

Subject: [fxruby-users] FXTable segfaults after multiple setTableSize calls

When I empty and refill an FXTable multiple times with a large data set 
(10,000 rows x 1 column in the example below, around 1000 rows x 6 
columns in a more complicated app), the application eventually fails 
with a segmentation fault. The number of repetitions required to produce 
the segfault is rather random, ranging from just a couple reps to 15 or 
20 in some trials. The program disappears (window goes away) apparently 
during or just after the table is filled, leaving the following message 
at the command prompt:

C:/Data/Ruby/pos/stockviewertest/mainv5c.rb:21: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32]

The platform is Windows XP Home with service pack 2. The base Ruby 
installation is the "One Click Ruby Installer" version 1.8.2-14 final 
(ruby182-14.exe). I've installed FXRuby version 1.2.3 on top of the 
version included with the one click installer 
(FXRuby-1.2.3-ruby182.exe). fxversion() reports "1.2.13" from the irb 
command prompt. The machine has a Pentium 4 and 256mb ram.

If someone can run the example code below and it fails like I'm seeing, 
let me know. If you see an obvious programming error on my part, please 
tell me -- I'm new to Ruby and that's a serious possibility. If you can 
run the code on Windows and it *doesn't* fail, let me know that -- maybe 
it is some other problem on this machine I'll have to track down 
(display driver?).

Thanks for your help.
