Hi  :)

I decided to try SFML 2.4 on some of my projects yesterday and I have an issue with one of them.
I managed to isolate the problem : when I load a texture in a thread, it triggers a Segfault in GlContext.cpp, line 159.
I can't figure how to fix it or if I'm doing something wrong.

Minimal code :
Note: it works fine with SFML 2.3.2.
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

sf::Texture* texture;
sf::Sprite* sprite;
sf::Mutex* mutex;

void load()
{
    mutex->lock();
    if(texture->loadFromFile("ok.png")) sprite->setTexture(*texture);
    mutex->unlock();
}

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(100, 100), "SFML test");

    texture = new sf::Texture();
    sprite = new sf::Sprite();
    mutex = new sf::Mutex();

    sf::Thread thread(&load);
    thread.launch();

    while(window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        mutex->lock();
        window.draw(*sprite);
        mutex->unlock();
        window.display();

    }
    thread.wait();

    delete texture;
    delete sprite;
    delete mutex;
    return 0;
}

The Callstack, if it can help :

I'm on windows 7 64 bits (but I do compile in 32 bits), NVidia Graphic card.
I use Code::Blocks and both version of SFML are compiled from the sources with the same compiler.

Same problem here. Previously was using 2.3.2 and I noticed the problem when building the latest source myself but thought the problem was compiler mis-match or something. It only seems to affect creating new textures, sounds seem to load fine although about 3-4 times slower which is weird too.

Have to revert back to 2.3.2 for now.
