unsupported operand type(s) for +=: 'NoneType' and 'list' in invalidate_draw in chaco

related issue: memory leak in copy_ticks on linux (to be submitted as next issue)

During refresh / update of a plot, we sometimes get the following error.

self._update_region += damaged_regions

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +=: 'NoneType' and 'list'

The respective code in AbstractWindow reads:

class AbstractWindow(HasTraits):
...
    def invalidate_draw(self, damaged_regions=None, self_relative=False):
        if damaged_regions is not None and self._update_region is not None:
            self._update_region += damaged_regions
        else:
            self._update_region = None

Thus, the error in principle cannot occur. Now I speculate: is it a race condition? Is there something not thread safe here?

Sometimes the error occurs frequently and crashes the code. It looks like there is also a memory leak.

In the following are the tracebacks with and without memory error.

Helmut,

Is this produced with the same frequency as the other bug you reported ? 1ms ?
