Bugzilla: User Sam Jennings
Hi all, may be someone feels able to explain to above mentioned user how to use Bugzilla in an appropriate way? Or wants to block user Sam Jenning's Bugzilla account samjenni...@hotmail.com for a week or so for educative reasons? He is engaged and may be even talented, but unfortunately he also ignores all guidelines and violates the bugfixing workflow with his back seat driver attitude as it can be seen in https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_activity.cgi?id=124210 In private mails I tried to explain to him as polite as I can, but unfortunately I failed, as can be seen in Comment 11 of Bug 124210 and Comment 1 of Bug 124237.

RE: OO 4.01 Compiled for Solaris 11 x86 Save As Stuck in a Loop
strange because I can save files which are correct files. In my case the problem is that the system complains that it cannot save while it actually does. Also I can open and save doc files but I cannot open XML-based files. A.S.

Each time we hit okay to save the document after supplying a unique name, the FilePicker closes, but instantly reappears again. I have narrowed it down to the following code located in sfx2/source/doc/guisaveas.cxx lines 1497-1520 The program gets stuck in the while loop below. The variable 'bExit' is never set to sal_True, so the loop continuous. I provide a name to the FilePicker interface, click Save and the loop continuous, redisplaying the dialog. To resolve the issue, I added bExit = sal_True after line 1513 so that the loop discontinuous. I am not sure if this will have effects in other situations, maybe someone can provide some feedback, but for now. I am able to save. sal_Bool bExit = sal_False; 1497 while ( !bExit ) 1498 { 1499 bUseFilterOptions = aModelData.OutputFileDialog( nStoreMode, aFilterProps, bSetStandardName, aSuggestedName, bPreselectPassword, aSuggestedDir, nDialog, sStandardDir, aBlackList ); 1500 1501 // in case the dialog is opend a second time the folder should be the same as before, not what was handed over by parameters 1502 aSuggestedDir = ::rtl::OUString(); 1503 if ( nStoreMode == SAVEAS_REQUESTED ) 1504 { 1505 // in case of saving check filter for possible alien warning 1506 ::rtl::OUString aSelFilterName = aModelData.GetMediaDescr().getUnpackedValueOrDefault( 1507 aFilterNameString, 1508 ::rtl::OUString() ); 1509 sal_Int8 nStatusFilterSave = aModelData.CheckFilter( aSelFilterName ); 1510 if ( nStatusFilterSave == STATUS_SAVEAS_STANDARDNAME ) These are equal during runtime 1511 { 1512 // switch to best filter 1513 bSetStandardName = sal_True; bSetStandardName is set to sal_True here, but bExit is not, so the loop continuous.
