PICKFILE core dumps when called by widgets program -- any advise? [message #1736] Sun, 20 February 1994 15:27

I have an IDL program that builds several widgets. I want to click on
a button and have "PICKFILE" come up. It comes up fine, but when I go to
close it, in the process of executing "WIDGET_CONTROL, event.top, /DESTROY"
it coredumps with a segmentation error (IBM AIX 3.2.5).

I can always load PICKFILE from the command line, but when I load it from
a program that already has XMANAGER and a bunch of widgets, I get this
behavior.

I'm running my programs with the command "/local/lib/idl/bin/idl run.pro"
where "run.pro" is a simple program that looks like this:

.run spread
spread
a=get_kbrd(1)
exit

"spread" is the program that actually creates all of my widgets -- it is
similar in structure to "XNOTHING".

Any advise?

Thanks in advance.
