RE: GWorkspace problem

[Guevara, Kristine F]

Thanks for that gnustep-gui-0.7.5 patch Adam.

GWorkspace is now up and running on my Solaris machine after using the
Solaris patch on gnustep-gui-0.7.5 that Adam Fedor forwarded to me. I was 
testing GWorkspace to make sure that everything was working properly and
found that the application would quit with a core dumped error in the
following scenario:

-when there is a drop-down menu as in the Preferences window, Inspectors
windows, Finder windows etc., and I select an option from the drop-down 
menu

How do I resolve this core dump error?

There is a bug in gnustep-gui-0.7.5 through 0.7.7 which causes this 
crash on Solaris. You need to get the latest CVS version of gnustep-gui 
and gnustep-back (and gnustep-make-1.3.2 and gnustep-base-1.3.2), or you

can apply the attached patch to NSView.m
