Crash when closing toolbar edit submenu

Toad for Oracle - Beta
1

Toad crashes when closing the edit toolbar submenu. I can reproduce this reliably in stable 25.3.346.7343 and beta 26.2.108.8442:

  1. On the main toolbar area, right-click and use the bottom option to unlock toolbars
  2. On any toolbar, click on the new small down arrow button at the end. The tooltip says "More Buttons". When you click it, you get a new button pop up labelled "Add or Remove Buttons" with a down arrow on it
  3. Click on this "Add or Remove Buttons" to expand a list of buttons to choose from
  4. With this list open, click anywhere else in the Toad window. The menu should just close, but instead Toad crashes:

Hi Paul,

Thank you! I've seen that call stack in our anonymously collected logs and have spent some time trying to figure out some steps to reproduce it but was never able to. I'll have it fixed soon.

Ugh! I was able to reproduce that exactly one time! After that it's worked without any problems.

Can you zip up and send these files to me at John.dorlon@quest.com?

EditorToolbars.ini
EditorToolbars_Default.ini
Toolbars.ini
Toolbars_Default.ini

Ah! Assuming you don't need a screen reader or other accessibility features, add these to Toad.ini under SETTINGS and I think the problem will be resolved. I'll still try to fix.

dxUIAutomationEnabled=0
VSTUIAccessibilityEnabled=0

Hi,

I've emailed you the files requested.

Adding those parameters appears to have fixed the issue in the beta, but not stable 25.3

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,

Yes, looking at our source code for the past version versions, I see we added support for those ini parameters in version 26.1.

I have a good reproducible test case though and hopefully can get it resolved soon without having to set the ini parameters.

Accessibility software seems to be the key to this. If you don't have a screen reader installed, you must have some other accessibility software or windows setting that Toad doesn't like. If you have any idea what that might be, please let me know. No problem if not, I'm just curious.

Interesting! No idea off hand I'm afraid. I can't think of anything like that I'm running or settings changed, but I'll let you know if I find anything
