Expose event crashes app

["Nelson Wang" <irrrze gmail com>]

Hi all,

I am developing a application, which is able to play back several jpeg/mpeg
files simultaneously in a single window(like NxN cell table), I mainly use
gdk_draw_rgb_image to render decoded frame. It works quite well for a while
but fails to stand for more then 2 week. It will crash with segv after long
run(eg, 2 weeks or more). The back trace always looks the the same, and it
seems that it has nothing to do with my code, so that I have no idea where
to start the investigation. The app is built on gtk+- 2.4.0(fedora core 2
gtk2-2.4.0-1.i386.rpm).

According to the bt msg, segv happens when expose event is triggered. I have
searched through the mail archive without finding any similar situation.
First I'd like to know that whether this is due to the old gtk-2 library. If
it is not, where is the good start point for investigation. Any clue is
appreciated.
