Description Haïkel Guémar 2010-04-08 15:38:30 UTC
Description of problem:
regression in wxWidgets 2.8, calling GetFileTypeFromExtension method on wxMimeTypesManager cause a segfault

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.8 (works fine with 2.6)

How reproducible:
python -c "import wx; wx.TheMimeTypesManager.GetFileTypeFromExtension('pdf')"
I attached a minimalistic sample in C++

Steps to Reproduce:
1. call GetFileTypeFromExtension on wxMimeTypesManager object
2. segfault
3.
  
Actual results:
segmentation fault

Expected results:
return a wxFileType object or null pointer

Additional info:
looks like an upstream bug, i was able to reproduce this on a debian box using wx 2.8 (works fine with 2.6)

Comment 2 Dan Horák 2010-04-09 12:10:11 UTC
This is clearly not Fedora specific, so could you please report the issue into http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ ?

Comment 3 Haïkel Guémar 2010-04-09 12:32:47 UTC
for follow up: http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/11927

Comment 4 Dan Horák 2010-04-12 06:43:12 UTC
The fix was committed into upstream and it will be either included in the upcoming 2.8.11 (to be released soon) or I will add it as a patch on top of 2.8.11.

Comment 5 Haïkel Guémar 2010-04-12 07:43:27 UTC
That's fine with me, i could wait until 2.8.11 is released. Thanks to both you and upstream.
