Re: PSPP-BUG: PSPP variable view seg fault ...

[John Darrington]

Hello  Maruthi,

Thank you for the bug report.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce this problem.

Perhaps if you can generate a backtrace, then it might help shed
some light on this.

Regards,


John

     Hello:
     
     Greetings.
     
     I was trying to use the latest test version of PSPP and learning to extend
     it as required.
     
     I found the following issue:
     proximate cause:    Segmentation Violation
     version:             GNU pspp 1.5.3-gee1bfc
     host_system:         x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
     build_system:        x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
     locale_dir:          /usr/local/share/locale
     compiler version:    9.3.0 (GCC)
     
     OS: Ubuntu 20.04
     I have compiled spread-sheet-widget (0.8)
     
     How to reproduce:
     1. Build the latest version (latest_source)
     2. Launch the PSPP GUI
     3. Go to Variable View (Data View and Variable Views are empty)
     4. Do not enter anything.
     5. "Double Click" on the "Type" cell. The Application throws a segmentation
     error.
     
     6. Open the GUI again
     7. Now fill  "Name" field
     8. Double click on the "Type" cell.  It works. It opens a pop-up to select
     the type.
     
     My observation: The issue may occur while launching Type dialog when the
     cell is empty / uninitialized.
     
     May I request you to look into the issue ?
     
     Best Regards
