Deleting QGraphicsItem with QGraphicsEffect leads to segfault

aziesemer

I think this bug is described here:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-18021

My workaround was to setVisible(false) before removing the item.

@aziesemer Got random crashes of QLabel with PixMap + QGraphicsEffect on Ubuntu 18.04 + Qt 5.15.2.

Anyone had the same issue?

@JoeCFD
after I changed the code in the destructor to

    if ( nullptr != m_label ) {
        m_label->setGraphicsEffect( nullptr );
        m_label->setVisible( false );
        m_label->clear();
        delete m_label;
        m_label = nullptr;
    }

backtrace results are different now:

@JoeCFD delete m_label; causes the crash. But the crash does not happen every time when the parent of m_label is destroyed.

SGaist

@JoeCFD did you try the workaround mentioned by @Chris-Kawa ?

JoeCFD

@SGaist Thanks for your reply. The random crash may be caused by corrupt memory. Will use valgrind to check the code out.
