This bug was filed from the Socorro interface and is report bp-60cdec43-04db-44fa-9b57-d58e82160808. ============================================================= #12 of 0807 Nightly on Windows, 8 crashes from 2 installations.
Any ideas?
Flags: needinfo?(edwin)
The crash report says GraphicsCriticalError |[C0][GFX1 24]: Failed to get index for face name |true|. (t=75.2149) which seems a very strange "face name". Do we need a cast or conversion or something to make it report mLogFont.lfFaceName properly there? It kinda looks like gfxDevCrash may have interpreted it as a bool...

Attached patch Fix the error message (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Better fix up that error so we can get some useful data out of this. Are font names usually okay to truncate to narrow chars? Most of our logging assumes 8-bit characters, sadly.

Most font names are ASCII, so truncating would be harmless, but it's not absolutely guaranteed; in particular, there are some CJK fonts that have names in Chinese or Japanese characters. How about using NS_ConvertUTF16toUTF8 to safely get a utf-8 representation rather than simply truncating the 16-bit code units?

Attached patch 1293560.patchSplinter Review
This appears to be coming from fonts in TrueType collections which have more than one full name per font, in most (all?) instances due to having different full names for different languages. This patch adds a new method to various SFNT parsing classes, GetU16FullNames(), which takes a Vector<u16string> and fills it with *all* of the full names it finds. It also changes GetIndexForU16Name() to check against all of the full names for each font in a TTC.
Attachment #8793228 - Flags: review?(jfkthame)
I may well be missing something here, but offhand I don't see why we should need to get and check against *all* the full names from each face. These are simply identifiers that we're using internally, aren't they? (Not names exposed to web content, where an author might have used any of the available languages and so we need to recognize them all.) So provided we consistently return the same name from GetU16FullName() as we use for lookup in GetIndexForU16Name(), shouldn't it all Just Work? Where do we get lost?
Closing because no crashes reported for 12 weeks.
