Description Dmitry Suzdalev 2004-12-29 18:37:00 UTC

Version:           1.4 (using KDE 3.3.0, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3-r6, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.9

Hi! Found this bug recently. Here's the steps to reproduce (sorry, no backtrace :( )

1. Open konsole
2. Press 'Enter' (or do whatever you want) until you can move the history scrollbar (i.e. until some screen lines will go into history). But don't move scrollbar yet.
3. Set the history size to be '1' - one line (in Menu->Settings->History...)
4. Scroll up-up-up, until it crashes :).
5. Voila.

It works for me every time. I tried this steps on two Linuxes - Suse adn Gentoo. Both had KDE-3.3.0 installed.

Hope this info will help you to fix the bug! :)

Well, after playing around for awhile, I got it to crash...

QGVector::operator[]: Index 1 out of range
QGVector::operator[]: Index 1 out of range

To reproduce, first have the History to > 1 (the default 1000 is O.K.);
do something to produce output in history (ls /dev).
Now, change History to 1; scroll up until it crashes....

Comment 2 Kurt Hindenburg 2004-12-31 03:28:51 UTC

It appears that the # of lines saved is History->Number of lines - 1.  
Example: set number of lines to 10, 9 lines are saved.
set to 1, 0 lines are saved.
set to 2, 1 line is saved.

...etc.

Comment 3 Kurt Hindenburg 2004-12-31 20:54:06 UTC

0x4009c9fd in HistoryScrollBuffer::getLineLen(int) (this=0x807bb24, lineno=1)
    at qgarray.h:79
79          uint        size()   const  { return shd->len; }

It appears that for viewing history is actually History->lines - 1, which causes this error.  Note that for saving history all the lines are saved.

This appears to fix this by having viewing history to actually be history->lines.
Needs testing....

Comment #3 is not enough to prevent the crashing.

On another note, changing the history line # to a smaller # when there is text in the buffer is buggy.  Looks like void HistoryScrollBuffer::setMaxNbLines() needs fixed.

CVS commit by hindenburg: 

Prevent crash when History changed to 1.  Konsole's History needs some TLC.
