[XaraXtreme-dev] XCode - built Mac Version will not display wxXtra SplashScreen

["Ben Fowler" <ben.the.mole@xxxxxxxxx>]

Looking at http://downloads.xara.com/opensource/doxygen/html/advsplash_8cpp-source.html
,
note that at line 36

00036 wxAdvSplashScreen::wxAdvSplashScreen(const wxBitmap& bitmap,
long splashStyle, int milliseconds, wxWindow* parent, wxWindowID id,
const wxPoint& pos, const wxSize& size, long style):
00037     wxFrame(parent, id, wxEmptyString, wxPoint(0,0), wxSize(100,
100), style)

The constructor call the wxFrame constructor. This seems to set off a
race in which the main window decides that splash screen needs to be
taken down, and this destroys the Splash bitmap.

The wxAdvSplashScreen tries to clone this bitmap by incrementing the
m_refData, which, the latter's now being an invalid pointer, causes an
E_BADACCESS.

Am I talking nonsense?

Is this Mac only? If so, why?
