QFileDialog The program has unexpectedly finished.

[eti_nne]

Hi,
I encoutered a very similair issues and haven't been able to explain it.
I "solved" it using the non static QFileDialog
Dialog open method :

it would be something like this :

void MainWindow::on_sendto_clicked(void)
{
	QFileDialog *dialog = new QFileDialog;
	dialog->setDirectory("/home/malar/Documents/");
	dialog->setFileMode(QFileDialog::DirectoryOnly);
	dialog->setOptions(QFileDialog::DontUseSheet
					   | QFileDialog::DontUseCustomDirectoryIcons
					   | QFileDialog::ReadOnly
					   | QFileDialog::HideNameFilterDetails);
	dialog->open(this, SLOT(on_sendto_clicked(const QString&)));
}

void MainWindow::on_sendto_clicked(const QString& file_neme )
{
   // your process
}

Hi,

@eti_nne, you have a memory leak here. Your QFileDialog instance is never deleted.

[eti_nne]

@SGaist
Indeed. My bad. I forgot a line :

dialog->setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);

Copy pasting is definitely an art :)

Hi all,

Thanks for your replay ,

It is working fine for me, but i have added don't use native dialog see here i attached that line,

dialog->setOptions(QFileDialog::DontUseSheet
| QFileDialog::DontUseCustomDirectoryIcons
| QFileDialog::ReadOnly
| QFileDialog::HideNameFilterDetails
| QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog);

Again i got same problem "The program has unexpectedly finished."

Thanking You,

[SGaist]

Can you show a stack trace of your crash ?

[Linux BABU]

Hi,

i am new to qt where i can find this stack trace on qt creator.

thank you

[Flotisable]

@Linux-BABU
if you are using qtcreator, just press F5 to run the program in debug mode, when your program crash, it will show the stack trace on the bottom

Hi, I using qml FileDialog on Ubuntu 16.04, Qt 5.8 ,it have same problem with message 'Gtk-WARNING **: Invalid input string' then may app is not respond, any one can help me fix this .

[jsulm]

@kd_wala Most probably nobody will be able to help if you do not show your code.
My guess is that this GTK warning isn't the actual problem.

[calc84maniac]

I'm getting the exact same error. I'm using Qt 5.8 on Debian 8 with GNOME 3.14.1. It crashes no matter what kind of file or directory dialog I open, if I pass the DontUseNativeDialog option flag. (I would be fine with native dialog, but it seemed the ShowDirsOnly flag was being ignored, so I tried using the Qt dialogs and here we are.)

Here is a detailed stack trace from the point where a static dialog method is called:

Hi @calc84maniac please install the debug symbol packages of these libraries, it will allow to get a better stack trace.

[calc84maniac]

@SGaist Sure. If you need me to get Qt 5.8.0 symbols too, please point me in the right direction since there don't seem to be any packages readily available.

I did a little research on my own, and it looks like this is a reference counting bug in GTK+, which was fixed in GTK+ 3.15.5. The bug tracker entry is here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=725164

It appears that Firefox had to put in a workaround for this very issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1166741

I'm not sure if it's worth putting a workaround in Qt or not, but it would be nice to not have segfaults.

[SGaist]

Since you could gather some additional hints, I'd say it would be worth double checking the bug report system to check if it's something known, if so add your findings otherwise open a new report with what you already found.
