Ruby Forum Ruby-Gnome 2 > panel applet leakage

Hi,

there is a problem in panel-applet. The hello-applet from SVN (like all
other applets) crash with this backtrace:


(hello-applet.rb:22342): Bonobo-WARNING **: Leaked a total of 1 refs to
1 bonobo object(s)

I've looked thrue the sources, but I have absolut no clue about this
ugly bonobo suff. Has anyone a clue how to fix it?

Cheers, detlef

Ps. panel applets are not deprecated (at least not til gnome 3.0), like
stated on the website. The Gtk::StatusIcon is not a suitable replacement
for some tasks. I would like to change the docs after the bug above is
fixed.

Ruby/PanelApplet2 is deprecated not panel applets because there is no
maintainer of Ruby/PanelApplet2. If someone do it, we will resupport
Ruby/PanelApplet2.


Thanks,
