18001 - [Tree]browser segfaults on loading the res/samples/treeTest1.xul page

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[Axel Hecht]

If I try to open treeTest1.xul both with the viewer and mozilla, it segfaults:

Tested on M10 and cvs from November 3. treeTest1.xul is cvs-version 1.1 Tue Mar
9 21:53:01 1999
Solaris 7, compiled with egcs-2.91.66

Here the error message:

Moving to Alec & marking M13 since failures in these tests aren't sufficient
proof of need for dogfood.

Attachment: Return error instead of crashing in this case.

With Chofmann's approval, checked in the patch.

I will be checking in an updated version of treeTest1.xul that conforms to
current tree widget syntax.

This is the error message for both the tree and the toolbar test pages.

Any further hints I can give?

Sorry.

Sorry folks, found out that the tree is horked. I will test again, when it goes
sane.
The error message comes as well when starting mozilla. Viewer worked though as
far as I tested.

Sorry

OK, I had problems with my old config dir. Now I am up and running and the
treeTest1.xul shows up.
Is the result shown in http://www.numerik.uni-kiel.de/~ah/treetest.png the
desired?

Sorry for the crap stuff, that came earlier.

If that screenshot is what you get when loading that test on Solaris then this bug is fixed.
There are other problems, but this bug is fixed. Marking VERIFIED.
