Summary0001919: Segmentation fault when launching frama-c-gui with OCaml 4.02.0
DescriptionI'm using OPAM 1.1.1 with OCaml 4.02.0.

I installed Frama-C using OPAM, along with its dependencies, and then tried running frama-c-gui. It segfaults. Using gdb I get the following backtrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

It could be related to lablgtk. All dependencies were downloaded using OPAM (including lablgtk 2.16.0) and installed without issues.

First I tried using directly the version from OPAM, but due to the segfault error I then tried downloading the sources and compiling them myself.

When running configure, everything is ok except for "OcamlGraph 1.8.5 > 1.8.4 found: should be compatible, but no warranty. Use it at your own risk!", but I used the patch available in https://bts.frama-c.com/view.php?id=1764, [^] and then I could run make and make install without issues. But once again, when running frama-c-gui it segfaults.

To sum up, either using OPAM or downloading and compiling the sources myself, I get the same result (unsurprisingly).

However, when switching to OCaml 4.01.0 and running "opam install frama-c", the GUI works normally.

Has the Frama-C GUI been confirmed to work with OCaml 4.02.0 already? Should I try manually compiling its dependencies to try and identify the cause of the error?

 To the best of my knowledge, you're the first to test the GUI with OCaml 4.02. There are some already some problems with the toplevel version (see http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=6533 [^]), and we did not test things further.

I will have a look to this GUI crash, but in the meantime you should probably stick to OCaml 4.01. The pretty-printing problem with 4.02 is major, and may render the GUI unusable anyway.

 Thanks, I incorrectly assumed that the availability of the package in OPAM with that version of the compiler indicated that it had already been tested.

I'll keep using the 4.01.0 version, then.

 The crash looks like a bug in LablGtk with OCaml 4.02.
Frama-C should probably be removed from opam in 4.02 as it is completely unusable so far.

 After investigation, the crash is caused by a bug in Lablgtk that is already fixed in development version. The GUI works if you use:

- a GIT checkout of Lablgtk
- OCaml 4.02 patched for bug http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=6533 [^]
