BeOS bitmap icon not retrieved correctly by mime.GetIcon() - Example: Pe

[rossi]

Not sure whether the issue is with Pe, but I tend to believe its an issue with Haiku. Pe uses the mime.GetIcon() function to retrieve the BeIDE icon for the BeIDE menu item if BeIDE is installed and the according option to show this menu is checked (which is default).

The attached screenshot conveniently shows both the corrupted icon and the passage from the Pe sources, where the icon is retrieved.

BeIDE is installed (repackaged as HPKG) and all other obvious locations, where icons are retrieved seem to work ...

This happens on hrev46722.

Might be related to #10166

As of hrev46760 this works again. I don't know the exact revision, which fixed this issue, but I suspect it was href 46759 ("mime/Database: Add SetIcon[ForType]() BBitmap* version").

Can be closed as fixed.

hrev46759 fixes that application bitmap icons were not being written correctly to the MIME DB via mimeset or create_app_meta_mime(). So it might indeed be related.
