Bug #: 47320
Summary: EasyHack: DrMemory windows warning cleanup ...
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: LibO Master
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
We regularly run LibreOffice and our extensive test suite through valgrind on
Linux, which dungs out -tons- of errors and problems.
However - on Windows, we don't get anything like the same level of coverage.
If you install 'DrMemory' - http://www.drmemory.org/ (choose to add it in your
path works best).
Then run:
drmemory -- soffice.exe
You should get a long slew of uninitialized warnings, and wrong malloc/delete
pairings and so on I'll attach a very limited sample of these. You really want
to install a pre-compiled Windows build from libreoffice-3-5-1 with debugging
symbols:
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/win32-debug/
Then you can get nice precise stack traces. Then it'd be great to try to hunt
down the errors. Unfortunately uninitialized memory errors can be hard to find
- they can propagate through the code at great length, and need tracing right
back to the first non-initialization.
Thanks !
