  • ttk::combobox dumps core with Tk 8.7

    From Paul Obermeier@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 13 19:24:10 2021
    The following script behaves differently with 8.6.11 and 8.7.a5:

    package require Tk
    ttk::frame .fr
    pack .fr
    ttk::combobox .fr.cb
    pack .fr.cb
    .fr.cb current 0

    With 8.6.11 it prints the correct error message: "index 0 out of range"
    With 8.7.a5 it dumps core on both Windows and Linux.

    Can anyone with a recent 8.7 branch confirm this behaviour?

    I can confirm the crash with Tk 8.7a5.  Tk 8.7a3 behaves like 8.6.11 and 8.6.12, but Tk 8.7a5 crashes, being killed by SIGSEGV.  Tested on Linux.


    My wish8.7 built from trunk on Nov 3 crashes, too.
