Hi Guys

had to do a complete o/system reinstall yesterday :oops:

so i decided to get the latest cegui so downloaded

CEGUI 0.6.2b Library Source
and the dependency pack
CEGUI 0.6.2b Binary Downloads for Microsoft Visual C++ 9 (2008)

as i got my myself the vs2008 pro for xmas
and have the following sdk's

Microsoft DirectX SDK (August 2008)
Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2
and update SP1 for vs2008

compiled CEGUI and placed the required .dll's in my applications directory but it gave me the following error when trying to start the newly compiled exe

Unhandled exception at 0x02132639 (CEGUIBase_d.dll) in MyExe.exe: 0xC00000FD: Stack overflow.

any one able to point me in the right direction of where i may have missed something

TIA

Hi,

The only cause I can think of at the moment is one relating to recursive event calls - meaning what you're doing in an event handler causes the event to re-fire prior to exiting the handler - at least this is the one that always bites me

Can you grab a callstack from the debugger at the point where you get the stack overflow? This should help narrow it down somewhat.

heya CE

the line in the callstack is

> CEGUIBase_d.dll!std::_Iterator_base::_Orphan_me() Line 180 + 0x9 bytes C++

if you need a full callstack list is there an easy way to grab it all out ?

TIA

That would be more useful

I think you can click in the window and do Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C

HTH

sorry for the long post funny thing is this app worked fine with Vs2005 and the dll's from cegui

removed the callstack messages to fix forum prob

Hi,

yeah it's definitely as I said, a recursive event issue.

It seems something odd is going on with a Tooltip, are you subscribing to any events on the Tooltip or something? If so, what do those handlers look like?

Hi CE

only tooltips i have is on the button

Code: Select all

PushButton* MyBtn = static_cast<PushButton*>(winMgr.createWindow("TaharezLook/Button", "ubutton"));
                    sheet->addChildWindow(MyBtn);
                    MyBtn->setSize(UVector2(cegui_reldim(0.08f), cegui_reldim(0.05f)));
                    MyBtn->setPosition(UVector2(cegui_reldim(0.46f), cegui_reldim(0.04f)));
               
          MyBtn->setTooltipText("Test Tooltip");
                    MyBtn->setText("users"); 
                   
      MyBtn->subscribeEvent(PushButton::EventClicked, CEGUI::Event::Subscriber (&USERB::OpenUsers, userb));

so dont think i'am subscribing to the tooltip there or am i wrong (possibly got it wrong )

TIA

Hi,

I think you broke the forum :lol:

I have a theory about this issue; I might have introduced a bug in 0.6.2 affecting tooltips that appear directly under the mouse, when I addressed this ticket., I have to test it out and get back to you (which will not be today).

I've not tested this as I've been busy with other things, but I am 99.9% certain that it's a bug that I introduced, so apologies for that and I'll add a ticket so we remember to fix it
