Segmentation fault on adding icon to App

[Patrick2391]

I have added icon to my App like this:

@app = QApplication(sys.argv)
app.setWindowIcon(QIcon("images/icon.jpeg"))@

On closing app window I get segmentation fault. Why ?
How to correct this ?

The reson for the crash is probably different than icon setting. Please run your application in debug mode and see where it crashes. If that is not enough, you can run it through Valgrind and it will show a more thorough stack trace.

Can u elaborate on how to debug Application.

[sierdzio]

If you are using Qt Creator: select debug build in porject settings. Run the debugging session (F5). Do everything as you do normally to reproduce the crash. The debugger will show you exactly the line of code where the crash has occured.

Actually i have created Qt app in python using pyside library. Only .ui files are created in Qt creator.
How can i debug?

[sierdzio]

In that case, I do not know. I guess Python also has some kind of debugger available.

Using gdb i got following trace:
