Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

Carl Gundel-2
If I search using a wildcard using the VA Assist Pro method + Browse Methods + Including String... menu I get a stack overflow, so far no matter what I search for.  This happens with a freshly installed VAST 8.5.2 image.
 
Here is where the recursion gets stuck:
 
String(EsString)>>#match:
String(EsString)>>#starMatch:starIndex:octothorpeIndex:
String(EsString)>>#match:
String(EsString)>>#starMatch:starIndex:octothorpeIndex:
String(EsString)>>#match:
String(EsString)>>#starMatch:starIndex:octothorpeIndex:
String(EsString)>>#match:
String(EsString)>>#starMatch:starIndex:octothorpeIndex:
String(EsString)>>#match:
String(EsString)>>#starMatch:starIndex:octothorpeIndex:
 
Is there a fix for this?
 
Thanks,
 
-Carl Gundel

Hi Carl,

what's the content of the String instance? Can you dig down the Stack to the beginning of the rec.ursion?

I can't remember seeing this error...

Good point.  Here is an example that causes the stack overflow.

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

jtuchel
Hi Carl,

so you are searching for the String '*registry*', right?

I am not sure if that feature is considered to work with wildcards. I must admit I never tried...
Can you try without the stars?

I don't have an Image at hand right now, but I guess you will see it work as expected. Search Methods including String always searches for occurrences of a String as if you added * at both ends

Joachim

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

 It's actually pointless to search for anything string with a leading or trailing wild card - just searching for the string will have the same effect.  You might want to search for a string with an embedded wild card; e.g. "registry*entry".  This may well be desirable, but it does generate a stack overflow.

As Joachim suggests, the method was probably never intended to work with wild cards...

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

jtuchel
Tom,

but the interesting thing here is that this is just a send of#match: and thus has nothing to do with VA Assist... when I get back to a vast installation, i'll give it a try. I remeber using match: or match:ignoreCase: or such with wildcards (also like this: *string*)...

neverthheless, I think Carl should try without wildcards and he'll get what he wants...

Joachim

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

jtuchel
Hmm,

this is interesting. VA Assist does in fact add stars to the end and beginning of a search term if there aren't any before it tries to match a string. (see Object>>stsAllMethodsIncludingString:progressDialog:), so the stack Carl sent here does not necessarily mean he added stars to the search field. And it seems it shouldn't matter.


I get the same stack overflow in 8.5.2 on Win 7 64 if I enter '*test*', after the progress dialog mentioned somewhat above 125 occurences... But searching for 'test' does work....

The method it breaks upon is also an Implementation of abtBuildInternals in my case (AbtApplicationPrefixesView>>#abtBuildInternals, to be exact, but it does probably not matter) and the method that fails is CompiledMethod>>#stsHasWildString:.

Diving down into the cascade of starMatch:... and match:, you can see the match: method does indeed split the method and cut off the first x characters (maybe the "'test' size" characters) and try to matche the remaining string.

So this sure is a case for Instantiations Support.

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

Carl Gundel-2
That's right.  There's no reason why a debugger should ever open when searching for methods for any particular string the user might type in.

 It's actually pointless to search for anything string with a leading or trailing wild card - just searching for the string will have the same effect.  You might want to search for a string with an embedded wild card; e.g. "registry*entry".  This may well be desirable, but it does generate a stack overflow.

As Joachim suggests, the method was probably never intended to work with wild cards...

Re: Stack overflow when searching methods for *string*

In reply to this post by jtuchel
Hello Joachim,

this is actually a known issue. We're working on in as case 49066. It is usually triggered by use of wild cards.

Hmm,

this is interesting. VA Assist does in fact add stars to the end and beginning of a search term if there aren't any before it tries to match a string. (see Object>>stsAllMethodsIncludingString:progressDialog:), so the stack Carl sent here does not necessarily mean he added stars to the search field. And it seems it shouldn't matter.


I get the same stack overflow in 8.5.2 on Win 7 64 if I enter '*test*', after the progress dialog mentioned somewhat above 125 occurences... But searching for 'test' does work....

The method it breaks upon is also an Implementation of abtBuildInternals in my case (AbtApplicationPrefixesView>>#abtBuildInternals, to be exact, but it does probably not matter) and the method that fails is CompiledMethod>>#stsHasWildString:.

Diving down into the cascade of starMatch:... and match:, you can see the match: method does indeed split the method and cut off the first x characters (maybe the "'test' size" characters) and try to matche the remaining string.

So this sure is a case for Instantiations Support.

Tom,

but the interesting thing here is that this is just a send of#match: and thus has nothing to do with VA Assist... when I get back to a vast installation, i'll give it a try. I remeber using match: or match:ignoreCase: or such with wildcards (also like this: *string*)...

neverthheless, I think Carl should try without wildcards and he'll get what he wants...
