[plt-dev] Pre-Release Checklist for v4.2.1 -- Pinging Sam
DrScheme is broken today - it doesn't start up. (4.1.5 and 4.2 are also
broken the same way.) I assume it's because of Eli's birthday? (If
that's the case: Happy Birthday, Eli!)
eta[59] "/Volumes/PLT Scheme v4.2.0.900/PLT Scheme v4.2.0.900"/bin/drscheme
draw-bitmap in dc<%>: expected argument of type <bitmap% object>; given #f
=== context ===
/Volumes/PLT Scheme v4.2.0.900/PLT Scheme v4.2.0.900/collects/drscheme/private/drscheme-normal.ss:208:15
The reason is that the code that is conditionalized on (eb-bday?) in
drscheme-normal.ss makes the splash code want to access the splash
bitmap, but that bitmap isn't set until the call to `start-splash',
which comes only after it. This appears to be fixed in the trunk, but I
don't see offhand by what revision, so I don't know if it's already in
the release code.
