Created attachment 590809 [details] Segfault output Description of problem: loading yadex works but when e levelname is entered the program segfaults Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yadex-1.7.0-19.fc17.x86_64 yadex-debuginfo-1.7.0-19.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Always it does not matter what level Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pick a level such as e1m1.wad or whatever.wad. yadex whatever.wad 2. Then when it loads press e level name such as e e1m1 3.Crash Actual results: Segfaults Expected results: Brings up editor windows Additional info: Fedora 17 LXDE spin X86_64 AMD quad core system.
Here's a little mind bender. Edit the make file and remove the -O # Options used when compiling and linking Yadex. # ld is invoked through the C++ compiler so # LDFLAGS should not contain options that mean # something to the C++ compiler. CXXFLAGS = Yadex will compile and work normally on my 64bit system Also could someone tell me who to send an all in one patch to? I believe I've fixed the problem with the Hexen patch and have incorporated all of the silly patches into one patch.
Hello. I'm unable to reproduce the issue here. If the problem disappears when you disable optimizations, then the root cause is probably still present, just hidden. Could you please share the wad file? The upstream seems to be inactive for 7 years and that's probably the reason why some unofficial patch pages exist. You can attach your patch here or try to contact one of the guys mentioned in the yadex-1.7.0/docsrc/contact.html document (only if your patch is directly applicable to the latest official sources). I became the yadex package maintainer for Fedora several months ago and as this is the first yadex bug I got, I had no reason to contact any of the upstream guys yet. If you're going to contact them, then let us know if they're still alive and responsive, please. Thanks in advance. Regards, Jaromir.
It would crash on any wad. I tried several from an old cdrom.com archive and some I'd created with yadex a few years ago. I will attach the patch I feebly tried to make by merging all of the patches in the RPM and hand editing failed patches. With the patch, it compiles and when no optimization is used it runs. In the source RPM there is a patch for Hexen attributes that was disabled due to it failing. I may or may not have fixed that but it does compile and I edited some very complex levels to see if it worked. I should test the Hexen features before stating that is complete.

I see this too. If I try to edit wads I created a long time ago, it crashes. If I make a wad, save it, and edit that, it works.
Hi Jon. That's probably the important piece of puzzle I was missing. Could you please share one of your wads? Thanks, Jaromir.

Thanks. I was finally able to reproduce it. Unfortunately the patch is so HUUUUGE, that it could take ages to merge it into our sources. I'll try to find all differences against our patches and then remove the duplicities. Hopefully I'll find some time soon. Thanks in advance for patience ... Regard, Jaromir.
Sweet, thanks! While you're in there, I noticed this bundles an ancient partial copy of Boost. Any chance you can look at that too, or do you want a seperate BZ and/or for me to look at if after you're done with this?
Any updates, or a patch I can work off of?
Hello Jon. I've merged the huge "allpatches" patch, but it didn't solve the SIGSEGV issue. Of course I could disable optimisations as a workaround, but I'd love to find the root cause. It's for sure some kind of memory error, since the code contains tons of magical constants. I'm unsure with the best approach right now. Regards, Jaromir.
Hello guys. The workaround with disabled optimizations seems to be the best thing I can do at the moment. Please, download and test the latest Rawhide/f19 release: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4855860 I've done a quick analysis with valgrind and there are some conditions based on unitialized values. The issue seems to be masked with disabled optimizations, but it's still present and it's hard to guess if it could have any negative impact on the data and the editor behaviour. We'll see. Please, let me know. Thanks. Regards, Jaromir.
Runs, doesn't crash, but I can't add objects (Ins key) but I can add rectangles. This is true on my old files that crash yadex and new ones. I can copy existing objects. I tested this with -O1, -O2, and -O3, same behaviour.
Hi Jon. Try Shift+Ins. I don't know why, but it works in my case. Regards, Jaromir.
It seems we would need to fix the keyboard shortcuts and the menu too. I can't delete objects.
It seems the new patch introduced changes in the keyboard handling. I'm gonna discard them.
Please, test the new release: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4859699 The issue was caused by the battle of all patches ... The very first patch introduced changes in keyboard shortcuts (Ins -> I, Del -> BackSpace, ...) and the very last patch reverted just the menu entries. At least the object insertion and deletion should work with Shift+I/Shift+Insert and BackSpace from now. Please, check the other keys too and let me know. It seems this piece of software got into a pretty poor condition as time went by. As the former upstream has apparently died, I'm thinking about creation of a new project page.
Ah, perfect, it works now! Thank you! Can you build and update for f18 and f17 as well? I can if you're short on time.
Of course. I just wanted to have some tests prior to doing this. Gonna patch F18 and F17.

Hi guys .... ->Jon : could you please create a separate bug for the bundled boost library? ->Mr.Meval : please, send me a list of hotkeys not working properly, I'll try to fix them ... Thanks in advance. Regards, Jaromir.
