Motif based application crashes

I have a Motif (2.1.0) based application running under HP UX 11.11 on a C8000, which occasionally crashes when moving from one GUI screen to another. Use of GDB following each crash reveals several different function stack traces, but all indicate that a function GetTreeFromDSM is being called (at position 5 in a trace of 21 functions). Another common factor is that all of the suspect functions come from library libXm.4. I have done a patch assessment, which updated libXm.4 to a version dated August 2007. However, I have rebuilt my application and the crashing still occurs. I have run vmstat which reveals free=320018, re=31, at=5, in=433, sy=4585, cs=419. Anyone got any ideas?

Re: Motif based application crashes

This problem turned out to be caused by using XtVaCreateManagedWidget and XtDestroyWidget too often. It was resolved by using XtUnmanageChild and XtManageChild after XtVaCreateManagedWidget to unmanage and manage widgets instead of destroying them.
