@mrjj said in "Undebuggable" segmentation fault:
i assume
this->_line->setText("test");
with no dialog also crashes ?Instead this works!
BUT:this also works:
connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, [this]() { QString filename = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(nullptr, tr("Select signature image"), QDir::homePath(), tr("Portable Network Graphics (*.png)")); });while this crashes:
connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, [this]() { QString filename = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(nullptr, tr("Select signature image"), QDir::homePath(), tr("Portable Network Graphics (*.png)")); this->_line->setText("test"); });Does this:
connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, this, [this] () -> void { QString filename = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(nullptr, tr("Select signature image"), QDir::homePath(), tr("Portable Network Graphics (*.png)")); _line->setText("test"); });crash?
From the behaviour described it does seem you have a dangling pointer/reference. Also don't do that:
SignatureEditor *widget = static_cast<SignatureEditor *>(editor);without at least having a debug-time check on it:
Q_ASSERT(qobject_cast<SignatureEditor *>(editor)); SignatureEditor *widget = static_cast<SignatureEditor *>(editor); -

Yes, it crashes.

Yes, it crashes.
Please break before the
QLineEdit::setTextand extract the backtrace for the thread.We've already checked the pointers and are not null.
static_castdoes not check if the types involved behind the pointer are compatible or convertible, so whether the pointer's null or not is meaningless if the typing is wrong. -
Hi
Shit i read
SignatureEditor *widget = static_cast<SignatureEditor *>(editor);
as qobject_cast
so good catch, its most likely that. -

Two problems with the screenshot:
- I can't see the whole stack (including the root), more important. Use right click and from the context menu extract it as text please.
- You didn't specify a context object for the lambda, which I requested in my previous post.

Sorry Sir, but we made a lot of trials. I wasn't sure about which code you want. By the way it's another syntax, very different! Why? Here the update screenshot and text:

Hi
Just to be 100% sure.
You still have the checks at your casts, right ?SignatureEditor *widget = qobject_cast<SignatureEditor *>(editor); // Note qobject_cast ! if (widget) { widget->setText(value); widget->activate(); } else qDebug() << "invalid cast for editor"; -

Also, could you print out the addresses of the variables involved in the lambda (you can see them in the "Application output pane" when you run the app), something like this:

The debugger says "no valid expression" for everything inside the lambda function, is it normal?Let's summarize:
qDebug() << this << _btn << _line;leads to a SIGSEGVqDebug() << this << _btn << _line << testPointer;leads to SIGILLqDebug() << _btn << _line;leads also to a SIGSEGVbut removing the file dialog call:
QPointer<QLineEdit> testPointer(_line); connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, this, [this, testPointer] () -> void { qDebug() << this << _btn << _line << testPointer; _line->setText("test"); });prints out:

The debugger says "no valid expression" for everything inside the lambda function, is it normal?Let's summarize:
qDebug() << this << _btn << _line;leads to a SIGSEGVqDebug() << this << _btn << _line << testPointer;leads to SIGILLqDebug() << _btn << _line;leads also to a SIGSEGVbut removing the file dialog call:
QPointer<QLineEdit> testPointer(_line); connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, this, [this, testPointer] () -> void { qDebug() << this << _btn << _line << testPointer; _line->setText("test"); });prints out:
SignatureEditor(0x2f09b430) QToolButton(0x2e1910b0) QLineEdit(0x2e2e13e0) QLineEdit(0x2e2e13e0)

Not really. What compiler, debugger are you using and what are their versions? Just the other day I had stumbled on a bug in one specific version of MSVC's code generation where it didn't properly copy objects that are passed by value in the lambda capture.
but removing the file dialog call:
[snip]
prints out:The addresses are good. So for some reason the file dialog invalidates the object(s). This can happen in principle, depending on event order, because the static function spins the event loop. Can you try something else then (same idea):
connect(_btn, &QToolButton::clicked, this, [this] () -> void { // Here use the non-static way of opening the dialog QFileDialog * myDialog = new QFileDialog(); QObject::connect(myDialog, &QDialog::accepted, this, [this] () -> void { qDebug() << "If we see this message it's all good, otherwise `this` is deleted through `QDialog::exec`"; }); myDialog->show(); //_line->setText("test"); });Edit: Updated code, because I forgot to add the context parameter for

Well, you need to find out where and why your widget is destroyed before the dialog is closed. Probably the loosing of the focus causes your delegate to delete the editor, and since the dialog takes the focus ...

@kshegunov ok, but nobody has ever used a
QFileDialogin a delegate?
I just need to let the user to select a file when enters a cell... is there a simpler way?UIs are fiddly, as you can tell. My advice, override:
QAbstractItemDelegate::destroyEditorand add breakpoints there and in the lambda. If you get to thedestroyEditorfirst, then for sure that's the problem. Then you can add a flag to your editor whether you are showing additional UI (i.e. the dialog), when you click the button you can raise it, and then ignore thedestroyEditorcall if the dialog is shown. This would also require you to connect the closing of the dialog to lower the flag, but I think it should work. -

I'm going to put a
QPushButton"Browse" outside the table, so the user select a row and then press the button. It's not so nice but it would have saved me a whole day... and your time too :-)
