            Bug ID: 125261
           Summary: Applying autocorrect to text with URLs causes Writer
                    to hang
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.2.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: hamilton.tim at gmail.com

Description:
When attempting to apply autocorrect to text that contains URLs to convert to
hyperlinks
(https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/6393/how-may-i-do-writer-recognize-hyperlinks-automatically/)
causes Writer to stop responding requiring a force quit.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new Writer document.
2. Turn URL recognition on - Tools | Auto Correct | Auto correct options |
Options tab
3. Insert text containing URLs (see below)
4. Set paragraph style to default
5. Apply auto correct - Tools | Auto Correct | Apply

Actual Results:
Libre Office hangs

Expected Results:
Auto correct applied, text urls converted to hyperlinks


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Bug is evident in both deb and snap versions of LO, but not in earlier 5.x or
6.x series.

Sample test with URLs:
This webpage is and example of a url that should be able to be converted to a
hyperlink <https://www.example.com/>. As is this page <http://www.example.org/>
and this page <http://adjustment.example.com/aunt>.

These pages should also be able to be converted using the method linked to
above <https://www.example.org/#brother>,
<http://www.example.com/airport.php#blade>.

A typical use for a page like this would be a bibliography or reference list
<http://www.example.com/>.
