QGeoPositionInfoSource::startUpdates() method is crashing with KERN-EXEC 0 panic when QGeoPositionInfoSource object is instantiated and called on a secondary thread

Hi,

Calling QGeoPositionInfoSource::startUpdates() method on a secondary thread is crashing with KERN-EXEC 0 panic.This panic is not observed when this method is called on the main thread. Here with i am attaching the sample application for reproducing this issue (SecondThreadLocation.zip).

In bug report http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTMOBILITY-1345, a similar issue was observed with a different mobility API (QSystemDeviceInfo::imei()). Can you check whether the source of the issue is identical to bug 1345 or not ?

Note : the problem occurs while compiling SecondThreadLocation sample with both Qt4.7.2 for Symbian^3 AND Qt4.6.3 for Symbian^3 configurations.

Br,
Nicolas Delabarre
