[wx-dev] wxAUI sample locks the mouse - easy to reproduce

[Milan Babuskov]

Hi,

I found an interesting problem (using wxGTK 2.8.8 and 2.8.7).

To reproduce, build a debug version of wxGTK and the auidemo sample. Run 
it and try to drag one of the tabs to split the notebook control. At 
that point you get an assert like this:

[Debug] 12:51:12 AM: ./src/gtk/frame.cpp(330): assert "(m_wxwindow !=
NULL)" failed in GtkOnSize(): invalid frame

The standard assert dialog shows up, but user can't click on it since 
dragging took the mouse grab.

There are no problems with wxMSW version, only with wxGTK one.

Of course, the real problem is that you really can't run any application 
using wxAUINotebook in the debug mode (short of modifying wx code and 
removing the assert - which I don't think is a good idea).

P.S. I added it to the wxTrac, but I hope it will be more 'visible' here:

Thanks,
