G__call_cppfunc

Hi to all ROOT-ers,
I am running ROOT 5.12 on Fedora Linux, and on Ubuntu and I 've having the G__call_cppfunc for about a week now. The framework in which I obtain it is the following

ROOT ver: 5.12
Operating system: Fedora Linux, Ubuntu Linux
MAchines: P4 3.4 Ghz and P4 Dual core 3.0

Software: I have a biological model that has to simulate an ant colony with many individuals for 10.000 generations in a 3-D environment for reconstructing objects. The number of individuals in the generation can vary from 1 ro 500.000. the problem is that when I run it for a long time with many individuals (>250.000) at one point the program brakes. with the following error:

root [1] .x macros/testCTswithSnakeBorder.C() >file_10000.dat

*** Break *** segmentation violation

This happens on two different machines but the opint where it breaks is differnt in one case the point is a simple getter:

while on anothre machine I get the same error but at a differnt point :

where fPhCiteF and fHabitata are vector.
I know that the fHabitat is not NULL and that all the indices do not generate out of bounds errrors.
Also the memory I used is always stable and I do not have memory leaks as the counter of top stays around the same value.

the frustrating things is that it runs okay for a couple of hours and then it breaks, even more if simples images are used that does not imply a huge number of individuals, then the program finishes with problems.
I tried to look for the G__call_cppfunc on the forum but could not find a good explanation for what it actually means.

Can anybody help me or give me an idea of why the error is generated ?

Thank you very much … all replies will be much appreciated and venerated.

You seem to have a problem in your class
MonitorColony::EvolveColony
see traceback.
Compile your code in debug mode and proceed as indicated at:
root.cern.ch/root/roottalk/RoottalkRules.html

If your code is compiled in debug mode, the gdb traceback will point you
to the faulty line number.
