Re: [sc-users] redServerWindow extension make SC crash



sounds like it's the help file cache functionality that trips you over. it performs a scan of all the helpfiles at Help.init. does it completely hang (beachball) your computer? it shouldn't take more than a few seconds. what does a manual Help.rebuildTree do to your system? hangs?

but also it could be the new beta webkit apple released (comes with safari4). did you install the new webkit separately? there's a known incompatibility between that and the current version of sc (see sc-dev list discussion).

sorry i can't help more.

hi, fredrik

I didn't change anything in original file.

the strange thing is it happens when I use Help Tree for the first time.

that means if I first use other help system like command-d and then use help tree, it works.
but if I open SC then use Help Tree first, 100 per cent it hangs.

I'm on 10.5.5 but I'm not sure have installed the latest svn sc, my download of 3.3 was back in 10th feb.

hi Djého,
not sure what's wrong. do you mean it hangs when you open any help file? or Server help? i tried here (osx.5.6, intel, latest svn sc) and but can't make it happen.


but even if I replace the original one, it does not solve the problem.

i'm guessing here but did you by any chance remove the ServerPlusGUI.sc? not needed. just leave the original class library untouched. yes, the extServer5.sc overwrites the built-in makeWindow method. that's all in order. but it's just only overwriting it in 'memory' - that particular class method definition. it doesn't touch the ServerPlusGUI file. when you delete the file extServer5.sc it reverts back to the original method definition ServerPlusGUI.

Have you installed Safari 4 beta?

This will cause SC to hang when trying to open a help file.

hello,

I've recently downloaded Frederik's redServerWindow extension here, the lateste version.

http://swiki.hfbk-hamburg.de:8888/MusicTechnology/810

and it makes SC hang as soon as I try to open help file from the Help Tree.

It seems that it overwrites original server window method,

Extension overwriting Server:makeWindow
in file '/Users/djehoyoun/Library/Application Support/ SuperCollider/Extensions/extServer5.sc'. Original method in file '/Common/GUI/PlusGUI/Control/ ServerPlusGUI.sc'.

but even if I replace the original one, it does not solve the problem.

any solutions?

thanks
