Hey Andrew. You're quite right. My override was implemented wrong. However, I think the problem was not in the in parameters, but in the out parameters. The input parameters I think were correct, but the caller is expecting a two-tuple back out. get_preferred_height_for_width(self, width:int) -> minimum_height:int, natural_height:int When I fixed that, it doesn't core dump anymore. I just return the same value for both fields. I have three concerns. The first is that sometimes the incoming allocation has some very strange width and height values in it, but are usually valid the rest of the time. Sometimes I see values like width of -408563232 and height of 32767. My second concern is that when the assistant window is resized to be made larger horizontally, the image grows, as it should, but the bottom of the assistant page with the usual assistant buttons (e.g. Cancel, Continue) get clipped some how. Clipping: <http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-13-06-14-051057pm.php> No clipping: <http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-13-06-14-051249pm.php> My final concern is I'm worried about the introspection system's error control on handling bad return signatures the way it did here. Since the introspection data knows that the method should have provided two out parameters, you'd think it would have caught this more gracefully with an exception than a core dump? But I guess that's probably nothing you or I can do about that right now. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
