execution stack from gdb, yellow line indicates the last executed code
CodePudding user response：
based on NoDakker answer I found where my mistake was on
if (dynamic_cast<Gtk::Buildable*>(widgets.at(i).get())->get_name() == (Glib::ustring) "stop_timer"){
dynamic_cast<Gtk::Button*>(widgets.at(i).get())->signal_clicked().connect(sigc::bind(sigc::mem_fun(*this,&UI_Controller::stop_timer),i ) );
}
on the vector widgets the buttons start_timer and stop_timer have different values, so I end up creating the map bind_time, on an expression inside start_timer with the parameter corresponding with the index value on vector widgets of the stored button start_timer, however when I execute stop_timer I end up trying to do operations on the Time_Keeper of the index actually corresponding to the index of stop_timer on the widgets vector, that Time_Keeper is non existent, NULL
CodePudding user response：
I am not too experienced with C , but I took your code and built the time keeper program to walk it through the start and stop actions. I too got the segmentation fault when the "Stop" button was pressed. So, I added some "cout" statements to track object pointers within the "start_timer" and "stop_timer" functions. What I found was a pointer reference was set up within the "start_timer" function for the timer object. But this pointer reference was not found when executing the complementary "stop_timer" function (it was NULL). Following was the terminal output for the start and stop execution.
Entered timer start
Time keeper timer pointer value: %p0x55dfd78fb390
Entered timer stop
Time keeper timer pointer value: %p0
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Just for a test case, I created a test time keeper object immediately within the "main.cc" program, calling "start_timer" and "stop_timer".
Time_Keeper *test = new Time_Keeper();
std::cout << "Test time keeper address %p" << test << std::endl;
test->start_timer();
test->stop_timer();
This resulted in a proper shutdown of the timer without a segmentation fault.
Test time keeper address %p0x55dfd7847e50
Entered timer start
Time keeper timer pointer value: %p0x55dfd789e100
Entered timer stop
Time keeper pointer value: %p0x55dfd789e100
I can't say for sure, but either there needs to be a synchronization of the start timer function and the stop timer function to the same mapping iteration. As a simple workaround, I added a static integer variable to the "u-i-controller.h" file to keep track of the iteration reference when the timer was started.
static int poss = 0;
At the point of calling the "stop_timer" function, the index is set to this static integer instead of the sequential input value.
void stop_timer(int i)
{
(bind_time[poss]).stop_timer ();
}
Then within the "u-i-controller.cc" file, this static variable is set when the timer is started.
if (bind_time.find(position) == bind_time.end() )
{
poss = position; // Save the timer iteration position.
bind_time [position] = *(new Time_Keeper());
(bind_time [position]).start_timer ();
}
This isn't the most elegant way to handle this as I am sure there are probably better ways to keep things aligned. But it gets the job done for now.
This hopefully wasn't too rambling and sends you in the right direction.
Regards.
