wxWidgets Debug Alert - Stimfit 16.2 on Mac #103

Closed alinaaaltonen closed 1 year ago

alinaaaltonen commented 1 year ago

I recently managed to build stimfit on my Mac with M2 chip on Ventura OS, via Macports. I have now several issues (see other issues for more details). The second, more major issue that I have found is that when I try to open the cursor settings window or other analysis windows I get this error message 'a debugging check in this application has failed' and the application then crashes. I did my best to capture the message for more details.

I can reproduce this issue. It seems to be caused by wxWidgets now reporting debug messages even if it's not explicitly built as a debug version. It's not a fix to this problem, but turns out that repeatedly chosing "continue" instead of "stop" in the debug dialog lets you get to the actual dialog in the end.

I updated the port tree and tried again, I still get the error message but I see if I click 'don't show this dialog again' and then continue it works.

The code changes will only make it into MacPorts once a new version of stimfit is released.
