      Hello perflyers,

     Sometimes when I execute my performer application I have the following
     warning :

     PF Notice Warning/Usage : Cannot create object in this buffer.

     It looks like a deep error more than a simple warning
     After this I have some edge pointer effects, switching a parameter instead of
     another, etc. Usually the Segmentation fault is not very far.

     My question is : How can I efficiently and rapidly find the origin of my
     error in my source code ?
     Usually this error occurs in a black boxed routine, so very difficult to
     isolate with a debugger like dbx.
     Sometimes I succeed in finding the bug origin ( sometimes a bad alocated
     pointer ), but the other times it is very difficult, even after readind and
     re-reading my code.

     I need a method, or an indication on what is usually the origin of this kind
     of error.

     thanks in advance for your precious help...

          Mike
