#604: EXC_BAD_ACCESS while opening stream -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: jakub.suder@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: Component: MacRuby | Keywords: -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by jakub.suder@…): I've tried the "if NULL" fix, but all it does is makes my request fail instead of crashing the program, so it's not really a solution... I think you're right that Ruby must be overriding something that it shouldn't override. The previous function on the stack is CFReadStreamOpen and I found some sources here http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/CF/CF-550/CFStream.c from which it looks like the CFReadStreamOpen function should just call "open" method on the provided stream object, but instead it magically appears in the Ruby's Kernel::open method (if I understand correctly what rb_f_open means)... I tried to figure out if I can reroute the call to the proper place from rb_f_open, but I just don't know the code well enough. Looks like the argc is 4, argv is NULL, SEL is a "open" string, but I have no idea what I can do with that. For now I'll try to work around this by using pure NSURLConnection or even some non-Cocoa Ruby code, but please take a look at this. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/604#comment:6> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
