I/we have reached a dead end && really need help.
It is *most probably* something we did, but we (a team of four
experienced programmers) have tried just about every thing we know
to do with no luck.
The symptom: our application (which until recently worked just fine,
thank you) 'dies' in pfInit(). The problem arises when we add new code...
it doesn't seem to make much difference where we add it!
The diagnostic:
21596 PF Warning/Resource(12): pfOpenWSConnection - failed to open display
"(null)" for pid 21596.
We've checked limits:
RLIMIT_VMEM: 9223372036854775807
RLIMIT_DATA: 9223372036854775807
RLIMIT_RSS: 1042644992
We've tried:
* backing out changes && going over them carefully.
* carefully checking for null pointers and the like
* running under CVD -- see the stack trace below
* and so forth
The stack:
_X11TransWritev(<stripped>) ["Xtrans.c":918]
_XSend(<stripped>) ["XlibInt.c":1429]
XQueryExtension(<stripped>) ["QuExt.c":54]
XInitExtension(<stripped>) ["InitExt.c":57]
XextAddDisplay(<stripped>) ["extutil.c":105]
__glXFindDisplay(<stripped>) ["glx_ext.c":216]
__glXInitialize(<stripped>) ["glx_ext.c":908]
glXChooseVisual(<stripped>) ["glx_cmds.c":1460]
pfWindow::pr_openNewNoPort(<stripped>) ["pfWindow.C":3851]
pfWindow::pr_openNewNoPortNoGfxType(<stripped>) ["pfWindow.C":1468]
_pfGetGfxType(<stripped>) ["query.C":403]
pfInit(<stripped>) ["pfProcess.C":405]
main(argc = 2, argv = 0x7fff2ec4) ["main.C":729]
__start(<stripped>) ["crt1text.s":166]
We're looking for suggestions, strategies, and the like.
Thanks 1.0E+06,
Rob
