[Ming-dev] Ming throws 'invalid fill-idx' ?!

[Tim K. <t....@su...>]

Hi list,

A weird issue (win32).
I'm adding SWFFillStyle's to a single shape:

<code>
SWFShape shape = newSWFShape()
for(i = 0 ... 500)
{
   /* get some random colors */
   randomColors(&r, &g, &b);

   /* SWFShape_addSolidFillStyle takes care of duplicates, if any */
   SWFFillStyle fs = SWFShape_addSolidFillStyle(shape, r, g, b, 255);

   /* set style */
   SWFShape_setLeftFillStyle(shape, fs);
}
</code>

Now: SWFShape_setLeftFillStyle throws 'invalid fill-idx'...
But weird thing is: when I catch this error using Ming_setErrorFunction
following calls to SWFShape_setLeftFillStyle DO succeed ????

Problem seems to be occurring when there are lots of fillstyles (+255) added
to a single shape (and added *fast*). But apart from occasionally throwing
the error I can easily add 500 or so styles per shape. 

This is I guess the Ming code involved: (shape.c#760)
<code>
if ( SWFFill_getIdx(fill) > shape->nFills )
  SWF_error("Invalid fill idx");
</code>

Anyone got an idea why this would be occurring?
I'm stumped.

Thanks,
Tim
