Description Fabien 2006-11-17 17:14:49 UTC
Version:           0.4.0-svn (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

If you try to open a directory in showfoto, it won't complain, just show a blank "photo". If you try to do any modification (filters, transformations), it will crash...
I guess there's no need for a backtrace :)

It could be great if it could load the list of pictures inside the dir, same behavior as if you do "showfoto dirname/*".
Not, when using "showfoto dirname/*", the directories should also be removed from the list.
Comment 1 caulier.gilles 2006-11-17 19:55:35 UTC
Not reproductible here. showfoto "Open Folder" run exactly like you want, normally. 

Witch KDE version you use ? Witch messages are you on the console ?

Comment 2 Fabien 2006-11-20 11:43:47 UTC
Sorry, I wasn't precise enough.

I opened a directory in command line, eg :
# showfoto mydir/

Then, I will get a blank "photo". If then I apply any fix or filter, showfoto will crash :

<<
QFile::open: No file name specified
QFile::open: No file name specified
showfoto: /tmp : RAW file identified
showfoto: Cannot load metadata using Exiv2 (/tmp: The file contains data of an unknown image type)
showfoto: Running dcraw command (digikamdcraw,-c,-w,-a,-H,0,-b,1,-q,0,-o,1,/tmp)
showfoto: Dcraw StdErr: Cannot decode /tmp
showfoto: Cannot load metadata using Exiv2 (/tmp: The file contains data of an unknown image type)

Apply any filter or any fix then, crash

KCrash: Application 'showfoto' crashing...
>>

I did more tests and the problem is the same if you try to open a directory in "File/Open" instead of "File/Open folder".

But, the problem is not only that :

- if you open from cmdline any unsupported file or even a file that doesn't exist, you will get the same problem. Eg :
<<<

QFile::open: No file name specified

>>>


I also made some tests with a false jpeg file. Just create a text file and name it textfile.jpg
Open digikam ImageEditor on an invalid picture (textfile.jpg), you'll get an error :
Failed to load image "textfile.jpg"
But, this doesn't prevent you to apply any filter or fix

These file must be fixed before final release.

Comment 4 caulier.gilles 2006-11-20 16:27:29 UTC
Marcel, 

- Why 'etc/passwd' is identified like a RAW file ?

- Something is wrong in DImg::RAWLoader because dcraw fail to decode '/etc/passwd' of course, but the loader do not return false in this case...

Gilles

Achim, this point is fixed on my computer. Because there is a lot of changes, i'm waiting 0.9.0-RC1 release before to commit.

patch to fix file-extention parsing when it's a null string

Fabien, 

attached, a fresh patch against svn to test. Take a care than kio-slave are
fixed. You need to re-install all on your computer. 

Gilles
Comment 7 caulier.gilles 2006-11-21 16:09:52 UTC
Marcel, 

My current patch do not solve the RAWLoader problem if we trying to load a dumy raw file. The loader do not return the right value when dcraw decoding is failed.

Note: do not apply my patch to debug RAWoader, because it catch the problem...

Comment 9 caulier.gilles 2006-11-21 18:13:19 UTC
Fabien,

In the report #4, there are 2 bad points that i can reproduce here :

> digikam: WARNING: Trying to append a Metadata item for an unknown key (no ItemInfo): EXIF comment 

Strange, normally it's "EXIFUserComment", not "EXIF comment". I suspect a KFileMetaInfo bug, but not sure. In all cal this not come from digiKam and Exiv2 library.

> kio (KIOConnection): ERROR: Could not write data 

I suspect a crash of KIO-slave (preview kioslave not thumnail kioslave)

This one will be automaticly restarted, but if you use intensivly this KIO-slave and if a crash appear, there is a risk to crash digiKam.

I think that it's a C++ exception management problem. Something is wrong somewhere, perhaps in Exiv2 when a dummy file is parsed.

Andreas, are you tested the libexiv2 (not Exiv2 command line tool) with a dummy jpeg file (for example to do "#touch dumy.jpg")

Gilles

> Andreas, are you tested the libexiv2 (not Exiv2 command line tool) with a dummy jpeg file (for example to do "#touch dumy.jpg")

It shouldn't make a difference. Class Exiv2::Image (and derived) take care of that. Exiv2 looks for a signature in the file to determine the image type (it doesn't care about the filename).

-ahu.

Thanks andreas, i will look witch part in kioslave crash.

Here is the patch for the rawloader problem. KProcess::normalExit() does not cover a normal exit with return status != 0.

Both patch have been commited to svn.
