[GSoC] Text Background Color in Draw - Report 22/06/2014

[Miklos Vajna]

Hi Matteo,

I noticed a crash that's probably related to your (otherwise great :-)
), text background editeng work -- care to take a look?

1) Start Writer, enable form controls toolbar (View -> Toolbars -> Form controls)
2) Click the more controls button, pick the Date Field
3) Draw a rectangle in the body text area to create an instance
4) Try to query its background color via UNO: Tools -> Macros ->
Organize macros -> Basic -> Edit, then type:

print ThisComponent.DrawPage(0).CharBackColor

and Press F5 to run, it crashes with:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

nWhich = 0 sounds buggy, maybe you advertise your new UNO property in a
generic property map, but in case of form controls, the underlying
implementation doesn't handle that?

Thanks,

Miklos
