------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Mar 16 09:36:28 -0800 2005 ------- So - having chased this vicious excel import memory corruptor for some hours, I came up with this pathetic patch: essentially Excel import uses an object 'ColRowSettings' - which is fine, except writer also uses a similar class - and well; you'd never know until the virtual destructor is called that frees something it should never free [ prolly only on Unix ], and then OO.o starts scribbling all over the heap (double frees etc.). [ of course, this only happens sometimes ]. I attach a sample document and a patch. What most concerns me is: was there no audit of this sort of thing done when we binned the tiny map-files ? ie. I guess this doesn't affect 1.1 because we only export a trivial symbol-set. Matthias - what is the status there ? Should there be an effort to namespace each component into 'sc', 'sw' etc. ? [ adding yet more bulk to our symbol tables ;-) ]. I'm guessing it should be fairly easy to write some tooling to catch this sort of thing - duplicate constructors would prolly be a good bet (?). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
