[documancer] CVS - Invalid toolbar bitmap on Windows?

Hi all,

Were some new icons added to the Documancer package recently? I just 
checked out CVS HEAD and I am testing against 2.5.2.8 on Windows, and 
whenever I try to start the program, I get an assert saying "invalid 
tool button bitmap" in src/msw/tbar95.cpp line 635. (Basically, 
bmp.Ok() is failing.) If I know what's been added recently, it will 
make it easier for me to track down which icon(s) are causing the 
problem. (Or what wxWidgets is doing wrong.)

Thanks,

Kevin

Depends on your definition of "recently". Refresh and Stop icons were 
added since 0.2.3, but I didn't touch CVS in a month or so.

I thought wxPython would output backtrace to stderr, does it not?

Wow, I believe I just found a nasty bug in wxMSW. I went to check the 
refresh and stop icons to see if there was something wrong that would 
cause them not to appear, and I noticed that they weren't in my 
Documancer source tree at all. Checking more, it appears 
src/data/refresh.png and src/data/stop.png are not actually in the 
Documancer CVS tree. (They aren't showing up in SF's CVS browser 
either.) But the amazing part here is that wxMSW doesn't even complain 
that the files don't exist! That's why I'm getting the invalid tool 
button bitmap error inside of wxToolbar::Realize().

If this is indeed the case (that wxBitmap doesn't even assert for 
nonexistent files) then I think we need to remedy that before 2.6. I'm 
going to check the source code for wxBitmap on MSW later and see if I 
can figure this out.

Embarrassing... Thanks, fixed now.
