Tip: CONFIG=Release broken (Not - probably compiler error)

The Projucer
1

Hey

I happened to build Jucer tip with CONFIG=Release (JUCE v1.52.65) and it won’t run. Or, it runs but hangs forever before showing the main window. Last lines of strace until I killed it:

open("/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 7 lseek(7, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0 read(7, "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<!DOCTYPE "..., 8192) = 5341 ^C--- SIGINT (Interrupt) @ 0 (0) ---

No problem running CONFIG=Debug, and also no problem for me since that’s what I’ll be running anyway, just wanted to give you a heads up in case it means something is unintentionally broken.

The release build works perfectly in my Ubuntu installation… Sounds like a compiler bug to me, are you on the latest gcc?

I’m on gcc (GCC) 4.3.2
Perhaps it’s a bug, I’ve never had anything like this happen ever before though.
Well well, no matter, just a heads up in case.

I’m using 4.4. Could be a broken optimisation, but it’s quite hard to track that sort of thing down.

Quite right, and unimportant atm. Thanks for your patience, I’ve edited the Subject not to be quite so accusatory… :oops:
