If you give the a_UIcmd_set_page_prog() Cache_data(entry)->len, does the problem go away?

Good catch! I made those changes (48029b8a5478) not knowing exactly how the whole process goes. What I don't understand now is: * The Hg CSS repo from freehg (tip: f9099e82be08) has the problem, but it doesn't have the "Free UTF8Data" patch (48029b8a5478). Anyway, it seems the bug is related to setting the new decoder. As a matter of fact, the main branch of dillo doesn't show the same problem, but it *has* a problem: Nav_open_url: new url='http://selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/' Dns_server [0]: selenic.com is 66.93.16.53 Connecting to 66.93.16.53 ==29247== Invalid read of size 4 ==29247== at 0x8061926: Cache_process_queue (cache.c:1151) ==29247== by 0x8061232: a_Cache_process_dbuf (cache.c:900) ==29247== by 0x80645C8: a_Capi_ccc (capi.c:597) ==29247== by 0x805D30B: a_Chain_fcb (chain.c:112) ==29247== by 0x8081760: Dpi_parse_token (dpi.c:219) ==29247== by 0x80819E8: Dpi_process_dbuf (dpi.c:278) ==29247== by 0x808290A: a_Dpi_ccc (dpi.c:668) ==29247== by 0x805D30B: a_Chain_fcb (chain.c:112) ==29247== by 0x8083668: a_IO_ccc (IO.c:414) ==29247== by 0x8083041: IO_read (IO.c:201) ==29247== by 0x808319D: IO_callback (IO.c:266) ==29247== by 0x808321E: IO_fd_read_cb (IO.c:287) ==29247== Address 0x480644c is 4 bytes inside a block of size 12 free'd ==29247== at 0x4024B4A: free (vg_replace_malloc.c:323) ==29247== by 0x807E466: dFree (dlib.c:60) ==29247== by 0x807EAA4: dStr_free (dlib.c:293) ==29247== by 0x8060381: a_Cache_set_content_type (cache.c:513) ==29247== by 0x8063F13: a_Capi_set_content_type (capi.c:427) ==29247== by 0x806DF45: _ZL18Html_tag_open_metaP9DilloHtmlPKci (html.cc:3020) ==29247== by 0x806D2E6: _ZL16Html_process_tagP9DilloHtmlPci (html.cc:3538) ==29247== by 0x806D970: _ZL14Html_write_rawP9DilloHtmlPcii (html.cc:3876) ==29247== by 0x806DAEC: DilloHtml::write(char*, int, int) (html.cc:667) ==29247== by 0x806DB7F: _ZL13Html_callbackiP12_CacheClient (html.cc:3767) ==29247== by 0x8061915: Cache_process_queue (cache.c:1149) ==29247== by 0x8061232: a_Cache_process_dbuf (cache.c:900) Nav_open_url: new url='http://selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/' a_Nav_expect_done: repush!

It > seems the timing is important, and maybe the decoder... The problem seems to be that at cache.c:1149 data is assigned entry->UTF8Data, then during Html_callback() a_Cache_set_content_type() get's called which since revision 48029b8a5478 frees entry->UTF8Data. That also explains why the earlier read of start went ok. I don't really now how to fix that though... Cheers, Johannes

Strange valgrind complain

by jcid＠dillo.org

Hi there, With Johannes, we're trying to find out why valgrind complains on the newest CSS branch with a certain URL: $ valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=yes \ ./dillo http://selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/ &>out $ less out There're several "Invalid read of size 1". It doesn't complain with a local file, nor after repush. It seems the timing is important, and maybe the decoder... Please help us, it's important to stabilize this branch before merging into main. -- BTW, after we merge CSS into the main branch, it seems like floating objects will be the highest priority. Dillo rendering would improve a lot by using both! -- Cheers Jorge.- ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

Re: We have competition!

by sandshrew＠gmail.com

> http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/columns/h3v_web_browser_it_dillo_killer > > What a headline! I was testing hv3 for quite awhile when the project was still active and would like to point out some stupid mistakes made in the article: 1) it's NOT h3v or h3w - it's hv3 (Html Viewer 3)! 2) it's written primarily in TCL, not in C; 3) both dillo and hv3 do support SSL (hv3 requires TLS for that and TLS is incorporated in the startkits, provided in the official website) 4) in both articles it is said "developerS". Actually 99% of the code (some parts were borrowed from another TCL browser called "BrowseX"(http://wiki.tcl.tk/2136)) was written by one genius named Daniel Kennedy. 5) Dillo actually launches a lot faster than hv3, but hv3 renders pages really fast too. And few comments from my side... Hv3 has a lot better bookmark manager when compared to dillo. Furthermore, in addition to bookmark, setting and cookie saving it can save history and has autocompletion. It has highly advanced css support - it even passes ACID2 test (something what microsoft with their internet exploiter was trying achieve for quite awhile...). As it's primarily written in TCL, it's platform independent, doesn't require any external dependencies, can run straight from USB flash memory (it can also save its db there too). Unlike dillo, hv3 also supports frames. Finally, even it's considered to be alpha state software, at least when javascript support is disabled, it is pretty stable. If you'd like to know something more about hv3, I think, you should still be able to contact Daniel - danielk1977 AT gmail DOT com. BTW, I don't know the current status of SEE project, I just know that the last time I checked (half a year ago or so) it had really many problems.
