Public bug reported: When using the click_action_button of the Custom Proxy Object for ActionSelectionPopover in an autopilot test, we get an exception in case the action that gets clicked has the result of destroying the popover.
The bug is caused by the fact that, once the action item has been clicked, the CPO method tries to access the autoClose property of the popover. However at this point the popover might have been already destroyed, causing an exception. A simple fix is to cache the value just before the click and refer to the value after, as autoClose is unlikely to change as a result of the click. For a real life example of this problem, imagine a ListView we pop up a menu with an action that allows the user to delete the delegate pointed at by the popup. This is very common case. The example below is the simplest version of a test case that implements this. You can easily create an AP test from this that reproduces the issue: import QtQuick 2.4 import Ubuntu.Components 1.3 import Ubuntu.Components.Popups 1.3 ListView { id: list width: 800 height: 600 model: ["A", "B", "C"] delegate: ListItem { Button { id: button text: modelData onTriggered: PopupUtils.open(popupComponent, button, {i: index}) } } Component { id: popupComponent ActionSelectionPopover { id: popup property int i actions: ActionList { Action { text: "Delete" onTriggered: { var m = list.model m.splice(popup.i, 1) list.model = m } } } } } } ** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-ui-toolkit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1504189 Title: ActionSelectionPopover's CPO click_action_button fails if we destroy the popover as result of an action Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When using the click_action_button of the Custom Proxy Object for ActionSelectionPopover in an autopilot test, we get an exception in case the action that gets clicked has the result of destroying the popover.
