Created attachment 149479 [details] provides Testinstructions and macro TestGetAddr Test instructions The macro TestGetAttr contained in attached .ods can only be executed if security allows to do so. You may need to go to tools / Options / security / Macro Security and allow level medium. With level medium set, reopen this file – you will be prompted to allow macro execution Tools / Macros /Run Macros / select Macro TestGetAttr found in this TestGetAttr_1.ods (or what ever is the actual name) / standard / TestGetAttr Confirm Msg-boxes (click ok). The last one will report a failure when called for c:\users\..
attached macro will fail with AOO 4.1.5 too, so it never worked at all.
Dear Heinrich Hartl, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug
Still confirmed in: Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ce9f23c6196b17985d14e441aa93175b31650f34 CPU threads: 6; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19042; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-US Calc: CL However, LO tries to retrieve the information for GetAttr using the function FindFirstFileW, which reads the directory entry in the parent directory. A drive root doesn't have a parent directory, so GetAttr will not work on "c:\users\..", but works in "c:\users\public\..". Maybe something about the volume itself can be checked using GetVolumeInformationW.
Patch https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/113964 However, I cannot decide if this should be merged or not.
