Description

When creating a WFitLayout with parent WDialog::contents(), the application crashes with a SIGSEGV.

I have modified the hello-word application to pop-up a dialog after during the greeting callback.

Here's also a gdb print of what's going on:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

(gdb) print this

here's the offending code:

void HelloApplication::greet()

{
  /*
   * Update the text, using text input into the nameEdit_ field.
   */
  greeting_->setText("Hello there, " + nameEdit_->text());

  WDialog *dlg = new WDialog();

  // application crashes within next instruction:
  WFitLayout *layout = new WFitLayout(dlg->contents());
  dlg->contents()->addWidget(new WText(nameEdit_->text()));
  dlg->resize(640, 480);
  dlg->show();
}

Hey,

The WFitLayout cannot be used for a WContainerWidget:

http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/doc/reference/html/classWt_1_1WFitLayout.html#details

We have been deprecating Wt::Ext for a long time now, so its removal is imminent and at that point we might implement WFitLayout for WContainerWidget.

Regards,
