Re: [Fxruby-users] Segmentation fault when changing the icon for a button

[Bil <bi...@vi...>]

Carsten,

You need to icon.create before you return icon from loadIcon (or at least,=
 before you use button.icon=3D). The reason is that MainWindow.create calls=
 icon.create for "first" icon as it a 'grand-child' of MainWindow at the=
 moment that MainWindow is created. The "second" icon you load up later=
 will need to be 'create'd manually before use. It doesn't matter if you=
 create something too many times (I think it is just ignored), as long as=
 it is done at least once before you attempt to use it.
