This still occurs in 2.7.3 dev -- thought it worth noting as the quote is over two years old, and it makes text unusable. <quote author="Alec Burgess"> In [Bug 582750] Tom Parker said: > (In reply to comment #2) > >> > Are their equivalent instructions for Windows users? >> > Not currently, although this should probably be fixed. > https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_with_WinDbg has a > guide that might help as a starting point (ignore the section about downloading > symbols from the Mozilla symbol server, but everything else should be usable). > In 2.7 (gimp-2.7.0-git-20090507-save-plus-export-2009-05-06-i686-setup) it crashes when Text Tool selected as soon as I click in an image window. (Known problem - I just wanted to try generating the mythical windows <grin> stack trace) Question: assuming this *were* a problem worth filing a Bug against is any of the following any use? Any suggestions for providing anything else necessary to actually debug the problem? Note: In February Jernej said to me in: http://www.gimpusers.com/forums/gimp-user/11148-Gimp-w32-unstable-releases-2-7-was-Logo-scripts-crash-gimp-2-7.html#msg50540 > All unstable releases of GIMP (those, that have "I won't bug > developers" checkbox) are unstripped, and should contain debugging > symbols (though I think I forgot to remove -O2 from CFLAGS for the > current 2.7.0 build - I'll provide another build soon). I thought (hoped) that this would avoid the messages below like: *** ERROR: Symbol file could not be found. Defaulted to export symbols for C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll ===================== When not debugging this generates an error dialog: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library --------------------------- Runtime Error!

Clicking [OK] closes the dos-box and gimp with no offer to debug. so testing under windbg .... I ran Gimp 2.7 and opened an image.WindowZ In windbg I attached to the process and selected: [Debug-Go unhandled exception] and [Window-Automatically Open Disassembly] It immediately puts this in the windbg command window: ModLoad: 70780000 70789000 D:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\GIMP2.6.6\lib\gimp\2.0\modules\libdisplay-filter-lcms.dll ModLoad: 705c0000 705f0000 D:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\GIMP-2.7\bin\liblcms-1.dll ModLoad: 66f00000 66f09000 D:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\GIMP2.6.6\lib\gimp\2.0\modules\libcolor-selector-cmyk.dll ModLoad: 66700000 66709000 D:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\GIMP2.6.6\lib\gimp\2.0\modules\libcolor-selector-water.dll ModLoad: 62cc0000 62cc8000 D:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\GIMP2.6.6\lib\gimp\2.0\modules\libcolor-selector-wheel.dll (18e8.254): Break instruction exception - code 80000003 (first chance) eax=7ffde000 ebx=00000001 ecx=00000002 edx=00000003 esi=00000004 edi=00000005 eip=7c90120e esp=0699ffcc ebp=0699fff4 iopl=0 nv up ei pl zr na pe nc cs=001b ss=0023 ds=0023 es=0023 fs=0038 gs=0000 efl=00000246 *** ERROR: Symbol file could not be found.
