gs error

[Gunilla Arendt]

Hi,

Yes, it is a message from the GS application itself. GS is logically
divided into a frontend and a backend, the frontend handling
communication with the user and the backend communication with Tcl/Tk.
With the backend gone, calls to for example gs:read/2 will return a
value (an error tuple) but all windows are gone and no new windows can
be created. Call gs:start/0 to start a new backend.

The problem seems to be that a 'configure' event should be created for
a window, but there for some reason is no configure option stored in
the database for that window object. I'm not sure why this happens,
if I can find the time I will take a closer look at the code later.
If you have some more specific information about when the problem
occurs, or if you are able to reproduce it, please let me know.

Regards, Gunilla
