I am using the gtk (gtk3) cargo package version 0.17.1 to build a desktop application for windows with the Rust programming language. My Installed GTK version is 3.24.37. I use an Entry widget in my window and, when debugging, I attempt to click the widget 3 times. Sometimes it will freeze after the first right click, the right click menu will not popup and the program will crash with the following error:
process didn't exit successfully: ... (exit code: 0xc0000005, STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION)
Sometimes this occurs after 3 right clicks. I am also experiencing the same crash and variable frequency upon trying to paste UTF-8 text into the Entry.
let groupname_box = SearchEntry::builder()
.placeholder_text(GROUP_PLACEHOLDER)
.width_request(windows::WIDTH)
.build();
let scroll_window = ScrolledWindow::builder()
.width_request(WIDTH)
.height_request(HEIGHT)
.hscrollbar_policy(PolicyType::Never)
.vscrollbar_policy(PolicyType::Automatic)
.child(&defaultsbox)
.build();
let view = GtkBox::builder()
.orientation(Orientation::Horizontal)
.child(&button_box)
.child(&scroll_window)
.build();
groupname_box.connect_paste_clipboard(move |box_context| {
log("token box pasted");
});
groupname_box.connect_button_release_event(move |_, _| {
Inhibit(false)
});
Please advise the best way to fix this behaviour. Is this a bug that was fixed in GTK4? Am I handling user input events badly? Something else?
