Deep debugging shows me that the problem is in CVSListBoxBase::OnPaint
method, CString release. Problem appears when CVSListBox has no caption
and
uses default one (""). I can fix this problem by using SetWindowText("")
to
CVSListBox control inside of OnInitDialog of the CPropertyPage, but this
is a
workaround. I aslo used Spy++ on HWND window of
CVSListBoxBase::GetWindowText
and saw that GetWindowTextLength is 10 but actual GetWindowText returns
"\0"
if it is important.
Is it a logic error in CVSListBox that it mishandles the CString when there
is none, or something else? How does CVSListBox or its ancestors like
CVSListBoxBase handle WM_GETTEXT (which is called when GetWindowText is
called)?
Can somebody comment or describe me what is exactly wrong? Unfortunately
the
project is very big and I can't post it here.
Try to repro it by creating a simple dialog app and putting a CVSListBox
inside it.
