In id:1487339566.mz8acpov1j.astr...@strange.none , Gaute provided a
traceback of an uncaught Xapian::DatabaseModifiedError. The fix for
this is simple, but somewhat intrusive.

I haven't tested against Gaute's test case (needs more boost than I
have handy).

Alright then, attached is a non-boost version that takes a notmuch db
path (absolute) as the first argument (no warranty).


With the patches above this crashes in a predictable / preventable way,
because notmuch_message_get_tags returns NULL. It isn't clear to me yet
what the best API choice is here: minimize difference with the old API
by returning NULL to indicate errors, or switch completely to the
pattern of e.g. notmuch_query_search_messages_st. I suppose we could do
something along the same lines and add new _st versions of the
problematic functions


Hi,

Ideally if the error could be caught in `notmuch_threads_valid` or
`notmuch_threads_get_thread` I think that would be the clearest, _st
versions would be nice. As I mentioned in
id:1487582192.57s86yczcg.astr...@strange.none it seems that at later
arbitrary iterations (without re-loading the threads object) the
functions return valid data (even `notmuch_thread_get_tags` does). Can
this data be trusted? I feel like this should all be invalid at this
point.

Regards, Gaute
