Hi all, I am very new to the development world of GNOME. I have
started developing small apps for fun sake. I am facing a problem on my
NLD machine (version 9). I recently made an application which open a gtk
file chooser to open a file. After I have selected the file I have to open, I launch
any 3rd party application (say mozilla) using the vfork command. Now
when this new application (mozilla in our case) is closed, it results in a
crash of my application. I was totally confused over the crash as I was doing
just what GTK documents for the file chooser. On trying the same code on RHL 9,
it worked absolutely perfectly. I finally managed to debug into it and found
that the crash is happening in a SIGCHLD signal handler that has been set by
libgnomevfs. I could see this inside gdk by finding the reference of the
handler which is crashing, and found it to be the function sigchild_handler
inside libgnomevfs. Am I doing anything wrong, or is this a known bug ?? Please
help me out on this. Thanks a lot in advance Salil Kapoor
