[Quickfix-developers] Segfault with ruby build

[Al <bro...@gm...>]

Hello,

I recently built QuickFix 1.12.4 using

 ./configure --with-ruby --prefix=/usr/local

and while I'm able to get the bin/run_executor_ruby script running,
hours later I get the following error:

 [server:~/qf5/quickfix/bin]$ ruby run_executor_ruby
 ../examples/executor/ruby/executor.rb:102: [BUG] Segmentation fault
 ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i586-linux]

 run_executor_ruby: line 6: 10399 Aborted                 ruby -I
../lib/ruby ../examples/executor/ruby/executor.rb cfg/executor.cfg
 [server:~/qf5/quickfix/bin]$

And from here on, I'm unable to get the example code to run again.
The segfault appears to take place in this part of the code in
examples/executor/ruby/executor.rb:

       acceptor = Quickfix::SocketAcceptor.new( application,
storeFactory, settings, logFactory )



And, so far, the only way I can get things to run again is to build
again from source.

Any thoughts?

Best,
