8104 - Profile Manager, application window way too narrow

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[cpratt]

Build ID: 1999061408
Platform: Windows NT

At first launch of apprunner, the CPM window is far too narrow; it's only as
wide as the word "Communicator".

The same problem exists with the main application window itself.

This is a problem with all apprunner windows in today's build; they come up
normal size, then resize really narrow.

The problem occurs in nsWebShellWindow::SetSizeFromXUL(), where danm is calling
sizeString.ToInteger() on an empty string. Becuase of a bug in nsString2 (on
which I filed bug 8125), the error code is not being propagated back, and
get returned as the result of the function. So we try to set the window width
to a large negative number.

reassigning to danm

rickg is checking in a fix for bug 8125 now, which fill fix the immediate
problem. However, you may wish to investigate why
nsWebShellWindow::SetSizeFromXUL() is now getting empty strings for height and
width, and handle the empty string case more gracefully. Note also the comments
in nsString2::ToInteger about passing in the radix.

Mass migration of minor danm bugs from M7 -> M8

Comment 6

[rickg]

Fixed the *real* problem which was in nsString2::ToInteger. I inadvertently set
the result value instead of the error code on badly formed input.
