Hi all,
I'm posting an old problem here out of continued desperation.
Periodically, users are giving me reports of crashes on application
launch, with the backtrace as included below.
The common thread (bad pun there) is that the crash happens in strstr
during apple event processing during the launch phase. None of my own
code is involved. I've played with different linker settings, etc.,
etc., and I really have NO BLOODY CLUE what is responsible for this, or
why it is occurring. Furthermore, I have NEVER been able to duplicate it
on any of my machines, no matter how much I wish I could.
Does anyone have any insight at all?
The only related things I've been able to find are old postings to a
couple of other mailing lists blaming RealPlayer betas for other apps'
similar problems. I've specifically quizzed my users on this though, and
people are reporting this with no traces of RealPlayer detritus on their
machines.
I'm baffled (not to mention frustrated).
