I have developed a Python application using GTK for the GNOME desktop environment. The application runs smoothly, but I’m encountering an issue where it becomes unresponsive to user input after a certain period of time. Initially, everything works fine, but after some usage, buttons, menus, or other interactive elements stop responding to clicks or keyboard input.
Details:
- I’m using Python with GTK (PyGTK) for developing the application.
- The application interfaces with various components of the GNOME desktop environment.
- The issue occurs intermittently and seems to worsen over time with prolonged usage of the application.
- Restarting the application resolves the problem temporarily, but it reoccurs after some time.
- I have checked for any memory leaks or resource-intensive operations but couldn’t find any obvious cause.
- This issue is affecting the usability of the application, and I’m seeking guidance on how to diagnose and resolve it effectively.
Request for Assistance:
- Any insights on common pitfalls or known issues related to Python GTK applications that could lead to unresponsiveness?
- Suggestions for debugging techniques or tools to identify the root cause of the unresponsiveness issue?
- Any specific best practices or optimizations recommended for Python GTK applications to ensure smooth and responsive user interaction?
- Are there any relevant resources, documentation, or forums where I can find more information or seek assistance on this matter?
Any help or guidance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated!
