Hi Jan, I tried your snippet but it works fine for me. I didn't get any crash. But your environment might differ from mine. In any case, it should not crash, so please file a ticket and attach the crash log (or a full threads backtrace from gdb), and I will have a look :) Thanks, Laurent On May 18, 2010, at 3:49 PM, Jan Kassens wrote:
I traced the bug down to a small script, but can’t get it smaller than this: http://pastie.textmate.org/private/m21wkng3mgu7wvksbu4rq According to the apple documentation [1] the Calendar Store framework is thread safe, but removing it removes the seg faults and bus errors I’m getting. It might just be Obj C calls from threads?
If this is a bug, I can file a ticket, but I might as well be doing something stupid here.

Hi Jan,
Indeed this looks like a classic threading problem. I thought we eliminated most of these in 0.6.
What does your #update method do specifically? Also, do the problems disappear if you call #update only once from the main thread before starting the thread?
A minor (but likely irrelevant here) note: I think your drawRect: method might be called from the thread, which is AFAIK not supported in Cocoa.

Hi,
I’m writing a small widget application rendering a couple of NSView subclasses which update periodically.
The widgets are subclasses of [1] and added as subviews to my main view, but the more I add the more likely are some random errors thrown on initialization. The errors include a variety of failed assertions and seg faults (see [2] for examples) and don’t yield any helpful clues. I’m guessing that I’m dealing with something not thread-safe here.
Am I doing something wrong here? I’m doing all the drawing inside the drawRect(rect) method (or synchronously called methods) which I don’t call manually. “update” pulls data from various resources, but doesn’t draw.
