Sparkle

Application crashes shortly after relaunch on snow leopard

Asked by navac

Hi,

I'm using the latest version of sparkle, this version works fine with leopard, i.e. installs the binary, quits current application and relaunches the installed binary. When i ported the project to 10.6 i took the framework "as is" without recompiling it with Xcode 3.2. Now the application passes all phases and restarts, but on the first possible command it crashes. It doesn't happen though when I launch the newly installed application manually, only when it's done after upgrading my application with sparkle. More than that, it crashes on a BUS error! Like there was some memory corruption... What do you think might be the reason?

Thanks,

Nava

Can we have a crash log? Anything interesting in the console?

Which version of Sparkle are you using? If 1.5b6, try HEAD.

Thanks Andy for answering. What is the HEAD version and where can i get it?

BTW, the crash doesn't happen with the old sparkle version on snow leopard. I didn't see in the crash log anything related directly to sparkle, but i'll investigate it some more and will send you a crash log.

Thanks again

HEAD just means the latest code. You can grab it via HTTP or Git here: http://github.com/andymatuschak/Sparkle

Can you help with this problem?
