[gtk-osx-users] [Gtk-osx-users] Bug: global_event_filter_func crashes every startup trying to send "type" message

[Philip Ries <phries gmail com>]

Hello again,

When I build and run RawTherapee (https://code.google.com/p/rawtherapee/source/checkout), it always crashes on startup in gtkosxapplication:

(lldb) bt

    frame #11: 0x00007fff938ee5c9 libdyld.dylib`start + 1

I'm not sure of the underlying reason, but the crash is right here:

  if ([nsevent type] == NSKeyDown &&

      gtkosx_application_use_quartz_accelerators (app) )

    {

global_event_filter_func runs this code unconditionally, causing the crash in this case because the "type" message is sent to an invalid object (nsevent).

As a hack, filtering out GDK_NOTHING as the value of event->type fixes the crash and the application works fine as far as I can tell.

I have Mac OS X 10.10.1 and GTK 2.24.25, and I used the XCode compiler for both the application and gtkosxapplication. Let me know if I can provide any further information.
