            Bug ID: 141034
           Summary: Crash entire application on syntax error in basic
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: BASIC
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: cla.bugzilla at gmail.com

Description:
LibreOffice crashes entirely when basic macro with syntax error in is run.

I had:
   myResult - true
instead of:
   myResult = true
(the - and = keys are right next to each other on my keyboard)
(myResult in the above is decalred as boolean)
(the macro is within the ods)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have macro with syntax error in, eg:

function myResult (toTest as string) as boolean
   if ( toTest = "TEST" ) then
       myResult - true   REM should be =
   else
       myResult = false
   end if
end function

2. Run macro (I run it from sub called by a button in a calc sheet)

3. Watch LibreOffice crash

Actual Results:
Entire application crashes

Expected Results:
No crash, maybe a syntax error warning


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
Version: 7.1.1.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build:  dd797d330b34196606d0970aa..
Environment: CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.8
User Interface: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Misc: Calc: threaded

I when I corrected my syntax error (changed the - to =) everything worked well.
I tested by changing back to the error (using a - instead of the =) and it
crashed.
I further tested by trying the other assignment (myResult - false) and this did
_not_ crash, so I think it is something to do with true.
I have not been able to test more so submitting this as a FYI
