Found the cause of the crash of the IDE on Solaris x86 when closing a
project: in procedure Search in TProject.UpdateUnitComponentDependencies
(ide/project.pp) some pointer arithmetic is used assuming TTypeData is
packed. This is not the case for solaris x86.
Snippet:
PropInfo:=PPropInfo(PByte(@TypeData^.UnitName)+Length(TypeData^.UnitName)+1)
;
// read property count
CurCount:=PWord(PropInfo)^;
inc(PtrUInt(PropInfo),SizeOf(Word));
// read properties
while CurCount>0 do begin
// point PropInfo to next propinfo record.
// Located at Name[Length(Name)+1] !
if (PropInfo^.PropType^.Kind=tkClass) then begin
Curcount is ok
PropInfo+SizeOf(Word) causes PropInfo^.PropType^.Kind to crash. It's 2 bytes
off.
Where should I report this bug? FPC or Lazarus. The latter I guess?
