10985 - crash when double clicking Personal Address Book, the opening a card and clicking OK

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Address Book & Contacts, defect, P3)

Description

[Chris Waterson]

To reproduce:

1. Open address book.
2. Select "Personal Address Book"
3. Click the "New Card" toolbar button.
4. Enter First and Last name, but leave Internet Primary field blank.
5. Click OK.

This causes a crash in native code, presumably because it has no way to index
the entry w/o an email address. The UI shows a "*" next to the field, so maybe
just forbidding the dialog from closing until that field has a value will fix
it.

Build 1999073011M9/Necko: Win32/NT4

This is what I was seeing. I can reproduce a crash using the following steps:

1. Open address book.
2. Double click onto "Personal Address Book" so it shows some entries in the
right pane.
3. Click the "New Card" toolbar button.
4. Enter First and Last name, but leave Internet Primary field blank.
5. Click OK.

Note: In step #2 if I single click and continue the steps the crash does not
occur. I have to double click to reproduce the crash.

The summary should change to: Double-clicking on the Personal Address book, then
opening a card or creating a new card and clicking OK causes a crash.  It
happens even if there is data in the Internet primary field.  This bug is
similiar to 10291 (double-click a card in Select Address dialog), but not
exactly the same.  I will change the summary.  This happens on linux and Win32,
mac not tested yet.  Old summary read: crash when adding new card with null
email address

Candice, I am sending this one to you since it looks like a back-end ab bug.

Please verify on tomorrow's build (8/5's).  With the fix for bug 11198 on my
local tree, I can't reproduce it.  Reopen if you see it on the new build.

Using 19990806 builds on win95, mac and linux both scenarios listed above do now
casuse a crash.  I will verify this one.
