Not surprisingly, happens on OS X too, so changing Platform field to All.

Comment 4 Douglas Mencken 2014-07-10 10:44:23 UTC
I confirm it too. But on my side it crashes inside XPropertyList::Count() called by SvxColorTabPage::UpdateModified():

Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)

* it fails on (XPropertyList*) this, where "this" is already NULL, so let's dig up to the caller
* void SvxColorTabPage::UpdateModified() <cui/source/tabpages/tpcolor.cxx:585> --
  bool bEnable = pColorList->Count(); <---- pColorList is already NULL here
* `long XPropertyList::Count() const' returns `maList.size();' but it's called as `bool bEnable = pColorList->Count();'
  to do things like m_pBtnModify->Enable( bEnable ); etc.
* since when are sizes true/false?!
* why pColorList isn't initialized in ctor? but only in SvxColorTabPage::Update,
  which is called on bottom of strangely titled IMPL_LINK_NOARG(SvxColorTabPage, ClickLoadHdl_Impl)
* maybe the logic was: `bool bEnable = false; if (pColorList) { if (pColorList->Count() > 0) { bEnable = true; } }' ?

Comment 6 Terrence Enger 2014-07-10 12:36:40 UTC
Bug 80940 sounds like the segfault problem reported here.  That bug
has a backtrace attached.
Comment 7 How can I remove my account? 2014-07-10 12:39:02 UTC
I didn't realize I need to attach a backtrace for a crasher in master; by definition, anybody that is going to debug this builds master, and can get a backtrace then in the debugger. Or what am I missing?
Comment 8 Terrence Enger 2014-07-10 13:06:31 UTC
Tor,

I am not suggesting that you are missing anything.

I tend to attach backtraces to bug reports mostly because I lack the
knowledge to do anything more useful.  Thet said, they may help
somebody else working on bug reports, not necessarily a developer, to
determine "looks similar" or "looks different".  Assertions are a bit
different in that they are evident only in debug builds.

Maybe I am adding more noise than useful information.  Guidance
welcome.

Thanks,
Terry.
