Hi everyone. I had a macro that was running okay in CINT most of th etime and then occasioanlly would fall over with a seg. fault. As you can probably imagine it took a while to track down: I was defining arrays of pointers to TH1F and TGraph objects, but mistakenly writing TH1F *passed_histo = new TH1F[thresholds]; instead of TH1F **passed_histo = new TH1F*[thresholds]; Unfortunately CINT seemed perfectly happy with this ... right up to the apparently random point where it crashed. I found the bug(?) by compiling the macro... Is there any reason for CINT not picking up on mistakes like this? I'm very surprised the program ran at all - I would have thought it'd stop as soon as I tried creating the objects. This would have been very helpful! Thanks, Ed Moyse
