lockFocus mystery in screensaver


  • Subject: lockFocus mystery in screensaver
  • From: Gabriel Zachmann <email@hidden>

One of the users of my screensaver has reported a problem and sent in the system.log.

In it, I find this line:
System Preferences[324]: *** Assertion failure in -[ArtSaverView lockFocus], /SourceCache/AppKit/AppKit-949.54/AppKit.subproj/NSView.m:4755

It appears after the following steps that I do in my screensaver:
1. stopAnimation, so that -animateOneFrame does not get called
2. do something that takes a bit longer, and that changes some internal data
3. startAnimation.

I have read the documentation about NSView::lockFocus, but I am no wiser.

Does anyone have an idea, what might be causing this error message?
Do I miss something?

At the bottom, you can find the relevant code from stop-/startAnimation methods.

Any insights and suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Best regards,
Gabriel.

PS:

- (void) stopAnimation
{
	asl_log( ...);
	[someInfo writeToFile: path atomically: YES];
	[super stopAnimation];
}

- (void) startAnimation
{
	asl_log( ...);
	[super startAnimation];
}
