Hi Jules,
we ran into a very strange crash in one of our applications and plugins when the mouse moves over a ComboBox popup menu (the item list for selection) while a modifier key is pressed. The crash occured in getCurrentModifiersRealtime(), but we weren’t ably to make a simple application with only a ComboBox that reproduces the crash.
What fixed the crash is changing
ModifierKeys ModifierKeys::getCurrentModifiersRealtime() noexcept
{
if ([NSEvent respondsToSelector: @selector (modifierFlags)])
NSViewComponentPeer::updateModifiers ([NSEvent modifierFlags]);
to
ModifierKeys ModifierKeys::getCurrentModifiersRealtime() noexcept
{
if ([NSEvent respondsToSelector: @selector (modifierFlags)])
NSViewComponentPeer::updateModifiers ((NSUInteger) [NSEvent modifierFlags]);
(Casting [NSEvent modifierFlags] to NSUInteger)
in juce_mac_NSViewComponentPeer.mm.
Not sure if this is really needed with the current juce version (we’re using an older one; ~2.0.18), but it shouldn’t break anything either.
