Bug ID: 376419
Summary: Template angle brackets not HTML-escaped in tooltips
for clang errors
Product: kdevelop
Version: git master
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Language Support: CPP (Clang-based)
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nicolas.alva...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
If my C++ code has an error detected by clang parsing, and the error message
includes a type with template parameters, the parameters were missing; for
example saying "no conversion from 'std::unique_ptr' to 'pointer'" but not
including the type passed to unique_ptr.
Since the tooltip uses HTML-based rich text formatting, I suspected it could be
because the angle brackets are not escaped, and sure enough that was exactly
the problem. Here is a test case:
template<typename T>
class SmartPtr {};
class u{};
void foo(int);
void bar() {
SmartPtr<u> ptr;
foo(ptr);
}
Clang will complain that 'SmartPtr<u>' cannot be converted to 'int' when
calling 'foo', but since the message is not escaped, <u> will be interpreted as
the 'underline' HTML tag, it won't be visible as text, and the tooltip contents
after that will appear underlined.
