First of all, thanks a lot for adding the unit test and looking into this.
It turns out that it also runs correctly for me (not really a surprise, right?)
;)
However, here it comes: Changing
- KCompressionDevice device(&file, false, KCompressionDevice::GZip);
+ KCompressionDevice device(&file, false, KCompressionDevice::None);
will run into this issue.
In that case, the unit test does the following:
QWARN : KFilterTest::test_saveFile() QSaveFile::open: File
(tier1/karchive/autotests/test_saveFile.gz) already open
QFATAL : KFilterTest::test_saveFile() QSaveFile::close called
FAIL! : KFilterTest::test_saveFile() Received a fatal error.
First, we get the warning that the file is already open.
Then, the assert.
It seems that the behavior for "None" is different. Interestingly, KSaveFile
also
behaved like this (KFilterDev did not change after all I guess). And this case
was
caught with an "if" in Kate Part's file saving code.
So yes, we can work around it again, just before.
But: I do not really get why KCompressionDevice works completely different
depending
on the compression type. This makes using KCompressionDevice pretty ugly
(im_h_o),
since you have to manually check for None and take a different code path.
Greetings,
Dominik
