Hi Georges,
Unfortunately, you did not identify which version you are using. Your
simple test works correctly with 3.02/07 (pro) or 3.03.
As a general remark to speed up the investigation of this kind of
problems,
I cannot do much with a message like "seg violation"
When you get this kind of crash, run with the debugger, eg with gdb
gdb root.exe
root > .x somescript.C
gdb> now you get the crash and the gdb prompt, do
gdb > info stack
and send me the output of the command "info stack"
