assert "Assert failure" failed in Yield() #425

./src/common/evtloopcmn.cpp(75): assert "Assert failure" failed in Yield(): wxYield called recursively

In the Bitcoin client version 0.3.24 when clicking between the All Transactions tab and the Sent/Received tab, if I don't give it enough time and I then toggle back to the previous one, I get the Assertion error above. If I wait a second or more between clicks, it works fine, but if I toggle too quickly between the two, then I can replicate this consistently.

This is using the Linux 64 binaries of v0.3.24.

I just had the same running the release candidate built from git tag 'v0.4.00rc1'. The top transaction was in black, too dark to read, as new transactions always are. I've found that switching tabs (from 'all' to 'sent' and back) fixes it, so that's what I was doing when I saw this assert failure. The touchpad button is bad, so I may have double-clicked one of the tabs.

It turns out that I can reproduce this by clicking any of the 4 tabs that aren't currently selected, then clicking another one very quickly. If I'm on "all transactions" and click 'sent' and 'received' in quick succession, I'll see this assert failure.

This deals with the old wx gui, please re-open the issue if this still reproducable with QtUI.

Isn't the old client still being supported? It seems silly to close all the bugs which are still an issue for it.

laanwj commented at 9:54 AM on December 4, 2011: member

The Wx UI is no longer being supported.

The 0.4.x daemon is still supported. @luke-jr provides backports of bug fixes.

Apart from that, I think it IS necessary to close issues that are no longer relevant with the current version. After all, they have been fixed in -master. Most open source projects work this way. We can't keep them in the list until 2020.
