[lazarus] gtk_widget_show crashing problem...

[Shane Miller]

Correct.   Here's more info.  I did a 
Writeln('Event fired -'+mess); in each event to see which event fires. That's how I know "resize" fires.

Then I did this

Writeln('Event fired for '+tcontrol(data).caption);
and it displayed the main form's caption (Lazarus Editor v 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1.2.0.0.40.5)
so it looks like DATA is being correctly sent.  Then it calls Dispatchstr('resize');

It tries to call it, but the TFOrm class never gets the RESIZE message and the program never comes back from DispatchStr without throwing that error...

Thoughts?  Were getting closer at least....I was very happy to see the CAPTION actually display correctly.

Good trace job!

That means the exception is coming out of the RTL. Do I understand
correctly that the DispatchStr('resize') routine is called but it
doesn't survive it? It never makes it to DoResize for whatever control
it is being sent to, is that correct?
