Segmentation fault

I have the following code:

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5

void Window::init() {
  watch = new KDirWatch(0, "sprite");
  watch->addFile("../shared/position.dat");
  connect(watch, SIGNAL(dirty(const QString &)), this, SLOT(filedirty(const QString &)));
}

For some reason this compiles but causes a segmentation fault. I have exactly the same code in another file but it works fine.
Any ideas?

IF indeed the segmantation accours in init() then the only thing that can go wrong is the allocation to KDirWatch, but I doubt that - how do oou know the segmentation is in init()?
Did you run it under a debugger, or with valgrind?

Commenting out everything there stops the segmentation fault.

I just read the "tray icon" post and someone had a similar problem. It was suggested using KApplication instead of QApplication. Did that, and the program compiled but complained it was missing KCmdLineArgs::init(). Added all that information and it compiled and worked fine :D
