Deskbar: always crash

[dsjonny]

I have tried the latest Deskbar (build from the source code, and from the latest nightly iamge).

If I use from the source code, I use it under R1A4.1: replace the libtracker.so, Tracker, Deskbar, Deskba (pref), Time (pref). If I want to set the time settings by click on the time in the self, the Time pref. appear, but the Deskbar crash. This is the same on any action randomly.

GNU gdb 6.3

If I use the latest nightly all the same. I have attached the debugger logs.

I try to remove the settings for the Deskbar, and for the Time, but not helped. I think for the localization too: change the language back to English, but I got the same problem.

[dsjonny]

I have attached the debug reports what I got when I used the nightly image (44926). As you can see all the same. I have attached 4 logs, because I have tried 1-2 things: remove, the Deskbar settings, change the language settings...

[anevilyak]

Not able to reproduce this here.

[jscipione]

You are going to have to replace libroot.so to upgrade Deskbar on a running system as well. Then it should work.

[dsjonny]

I have replaced the libroot.so too, but after some click I got crash too.

I also rebuild the source, and use the latest apps/libs.

[dsjonny]

Sometimes when I open a Time pref from the clock's menu, the controls are inactive (and the Deskbar crash...):

[dsjonny]

I found something: I have installed the latest nightly image (45092), and the Deskbar does not save the settings. After I restert the system or just the Deskbar, the default settings will be use.

[dsjonny]

Update: since some days I have no crash, but the Deskbar does not save the settings.

And foound another thing: on the Deskbar preferences panel the active list item is not bold as on the Tracker's preferences panel.

Replying to dsjonny:

Hi, this patch may solve the problem (Deskbar dose not save the settings) . In TBarApp::InitSettings(), fClockSettingFile initialized incorrectly, so Deskbar can't save settings.

It does indeed, thanks! Applied in hrev45115.
