interpreter crash with 'unique and list!

 [1/7] from: andreas::bolka::gmx::net at: 15-Jan-2004 2:12


using REBOL/Core 2.5.6.3.1 (win32) or REBOL/Core 2.5.6.4.2 (linux), the following expression crashes the interpreter:
>> unique make list! array 15000
Invalid data type during recycle ** Press enter to quit... [Submitted to feedback as (Feedback Id #41ej11430)] -- Best regards, Andreas

Hmm! on REBOL/Core 2.5.5.4.2 (linux):
>> unique make list! array 15000
== make list! [none] ; that works ; But if we attempt an assignment ; from that expression:
>> t: unique make list! array 15000
Invalid data type during recycle ; Gadzooks! I broke it... ; should I submit this too? tim -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com<

What is interesting is that it didnt break on my first attempt but I pasted it a second time in the interpreter and then it gave the same error. So I'm thinking its something to do with the memory management. Paul Tretter

Jup, just use larger sizes (e.g. unique make list! array 100000) and it will most likely always break on first attempt :) -- Best regards, Andreas

this is the second time in 3.5 years that I have seen crash on rebol (either linux or windows). The first is the binary 'skip bug. :-) This is highly acceptable in my book, but is there a 'bug list' anywhere? Would be nice.... tim -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com<

Actually, RT does maintain a bug list from the Feedback's. Maybe its not in their interests to publish that even though it would be of great interest to us. I think as long as anyone finds a bug they copy it to this list we can at least search for it. Maybe we should try to have a subj format for Bug submittals to this list. Would be nice if we had at the bottom of the message where it already shows us the unsubscribe information a way to format a bug submittal to the list. Paul Tretter

A while back, a few of us cooked up a reblet to submit bugs to Graham's REP site. http://www.compkarori.com/vanilla/display/Bug+Reporter I don't know if anyone's using it though. -- Gregg
