Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 6105
Crash by importing MS Word RTF-File
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:43:23 UTC
When I import the following RTF-File in Winword 97-2000 RTF-Format, Openoffice stops working/freezes. It must be something in the underlying structure. This ist the template for my faxes - and all documents based on this template show the same behavior.
Created attachment 2069 [details] doc that lets openoffice crash
Martin, thanks for including a file in your issue. Duplicated issue on Win NT 4.0, OO 1.0. File opens fine in Word 2000. RTF 1.6 specification http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http%3a%2f% 2fmsdn.microsoft.com%2flibrary%2f%3furl%3d%2flibrary%2fen-us% 2fdnrtfspec%2fhtml%2frtfspec.asp%3fframe%3dtrue
Joost->Caolan: It's reproducible. Reassigned to you.
Created attachment 2274 [details] cutdown .sxw example
cmc->ama: In the .sxw example attached if the cursor is positioned at the indicated point and delete backwards then there is long pause in layout, eventually a looping louie assert and the section is redrawn at the height of the page. I think that is the problem with the original rtf document.
Ok, there's seems to be a problem in the layout routine.
AMA->FME: Sounds like a section loop?!
FME: Loop has been fixed in sw/source/core/layout/fly.cxx rev. 1.37.36.1. There are still some more formatting problems -> #i10886#.
FME->QA: Please test sections with columns thoroughly.
FME: cws sw004
SBA->FME: As discussed, the .sxw file Caolan attached works now in CWS sw004 but the original file still loops. Yours again...
FME: Next try: sw/source/core/text/layout/calcmove.cxx rev. 1.33.36.1 sw/source/core/text/layout/fly.cxx 1.37.36.3
.
SBA: Fix verified in CWS SW-004.
As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved <wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for details.
