1741046 - Debug build: IMAP, syntax error in generic parser

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

Running a debug build, I crashed with:

[Parent 18111, IMAP] ###!!! ASSERTION: syntax error in generic parser: '!error', file /home/user/moz/comm-esr91/mozilla/comm/mailnews/imap/src/nsImapGenericParser.cpp:47

void nsImapGenericParser::SetSyntaxError(bool error, const char* msg) {
if (error)
fParserState |= stateSyntaxErrorFlag;
else
fParserState &= ~stateSyntaxErrorFlag;
NS_ASSERTION(!error, "syntax error in generic parser");
}

(Note this won't crash in optimized builds)

Reproducible?
Anyway, should probably just be a warning. No reason to have an assertion just because the server sent something invalid.
