Hi, I'm working with XTPro version 11.2.1 and we are experiencing a crash when we call the CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove function. Has anyone else had this problem? The code that was giving us the crash is as follows: CXTPPropertyGridItem* pSelected = m_wndGrid.GetSelectedItem(); if(!pSelected) return; pSelected->Remove(); We were able to get around the issue using the following code based off of the CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove() code but without the InternalRelease: CXTPPropertyGridItem* pSelected = m_wndGrid.GetSelectedItem(); if(!pSelected) return; CXTPPropertyGridItems* pItems = pSelected->GetParentItem()->GetChilds(); ASSERT(pItems); int nIndex = pItems ? pItems->Find(pSelected) : -1; if (nIndex != -1) { pItems->RemoveAt(nIndex); } I think it may be the InernalRelase call the is causing the problem, since removing the CXTPPropertyGridItem item from CXTPPropertyGridItems seems to delete it? Does anyone have any ideas? Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks. |

Hi,
Yes, it have to delete it. Do you create items dynamically like our sampls ? ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg we are creating the items like so: CXTPPropertyGridItem* pItem = new CXTPPropertyGridItem(strName , strValue); And then adding them to the Grid like so: pCategory->InsertChildItem(i, pItem); Where pCategory is a CXTPPropertyGridItem. As I said in my previous post: pSelected->Remove(); Used to work fine in previous versions of XtreeToolkit Pro, but now it appears to cause a crash. Can you confirm that CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove does not cause a crash? After removing the item from the CXTPPropertyGridItems array is it safe to call InternalRelease? pItems->m_arrItems.RemoveAt(nIndex); InternalRelease(); This problem appears to be affecting more then one of our programs so I am interested in learning if it is a bug or a problem on our side. |

Him
Yes, its designed to call InternalRelease(); to free memory of item.
If you see crush, can you give call stack of it? ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

I've got the same problem.
Version v11.2.1.
It is caused in CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove()
m_pParent = NULL;
if (m_pGrid) m_pGrid->Refresh();
must be executed before InternalRelease() is invoked. This is because the "this" pointer becomes invalid in InternalRelease(). |

damn, sorry, you right IRMark, please replace pSelected->Remove(); line in your code with
pSelected->InternalAddRef();
pSelected->Remove(); pSelected->InternalRelease(); ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi, Thanks wolfgang6, I was going to post that, but I didn't have a chance and thanks Oleg for finding a workaround. I'm assuming that in future versions this will be fixed? |

No Problem Oleg, any idea when 11.2.2 will be released? We have a release coming up so I'm just trying to decide if I want to use your workaround or if I should hold off for the new version. |

Hello,
There are not much changes for 11.2.2 for now, so I not sure. Think best slution for you is patch our sources and move InternalRelease to the bottom. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

It's a great feeling to help the gurus ;-) Solving the problem we discussed above did not solve all
the problems in my code. I'm updating from version 10.3.1. Please take a look: class CMyPropGrid : public CXTPPropertyGrid {...} BOOL CMyPropGrid::Create(const RECT& rect, CWnd*
pParentWnd, UINT nID, DWORD dwListStyle) {
CXTPPropertyGrid::Create(rect, pParentWnd, nID, dwListStyle);
CXTPPropertyGridItem* pgitDummy = CreateItem(_T("dummy"),
_T(""));
CXTPPropertyGridItem* pgitDummyCat =
AddCategory(_T("DUMMY-CAT"));
pgitDummyCat->AddChildItem(pgitDummy); //...compute the
grid height for x rows using heigth of pigtDummy
pgitDummy->Remove(); // !
pgitDummyCat->Remove(); // ! //... ResetContent(); //...} With 12.2.1, I have to skip pgitDummy->Remove()
or pgitDummyCat->Remove() or both. Otherwise CXTPPropertyGridView::ResetContent() runs
into a memory fault at pItem->SetVisible(FALSE); pItem == pguitDummyCat at
this time. Regards Wolfgang |

Hi, We have also tried patching the code as follows: // Deletes the item. void CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove() { if (!m_pGrid) return; CXTPPropertyGridItems* pItems = GetParentItem() == 0 ? m_pGrid->m_pCategories : GetParentItem()->m_pChilds; ASSERT(pItems); int nIndex = pItems ? pItems->Find(this) : -1; if (nIndex != -1) { m_pParent = NULL; if (m_pGrid) m_pGrid->Refresh(); pItems->m_arrItems.RemoveAt(nIndex); InternalRelease(); } } But this does not seem to solve the problem either, and we have continued to experience a crash. This is a serious issue for us as we have spent a lot of time on it, and are approaching the release of our software. |

It should look like this: // Deletes the item. void CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove() { if (!m_pGrid) return; CXTPPropertyGridItems* pItems = GetParentItem() == 0 ? m_pGrid->m_pCategories : GetParentItem()->m_pChilds; ASSERT(pItems); int nIndex = pItems ? pItems->Find(this) : -1; m_pParent = NULL; if (m_pGrid) m_pGrid->Refresh(); if (nIndex != -1) { pItems->m_arrItems.RemoveAt(nIndex); InternalRelease(); } } |

Here what we changed:
void CXTPPropertyGridItem::Remove()
{ if (!m_pGrid) return; CXTPPropertyGridItems* pItems = GetParentItem() == 0 ? m_pGrid->m_pCategories : GetParentItem()->m_pChilds;
ASSERT(pItems); int nIndex = pItems ? pItems->Find(this) : -1; if (nIndex == -1)
return; pItems->m_arrItems.RemoveAt(nIndex);
m_pParent = NULL;
if (m_pGrid) m_pGrid->Refresh(); InternalRelease(); } ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi, second if (m_pGrid) can be removed. Jimmy |

Thanks Oleg, that one worked for us. I guess InternalRelease() has to be the very very (not even in an if statement) line in the function. Also nice point jimmy. |
