?Compare by Content (Binary Mode) - Clipboard Copy Fail

[Aezay]

Total Commander 8.50, 32-bit
Windows 7, 64-bit

1. Compare two files by content.
2. Switch mode to binary. *
3. Compare.
4. Select one or more lines.
5. Right click marked line(s).
6. Copy selection to clipboard.

Result: Clipboard now contains an empty string, and not the selected hex values/text.

* = If binary mode is unchecked, everything works just fine.

Confirmed.

This works in TC 8.01, so it must be a new bug.

I will check it, thanks. Probably broken when I added Unicode support.

Crash confirmed also for
Total Commander 8.51 b1, 64-bit
Windows 7, SP1 64-bit

I can also confirm the crash of 64bit TC 8.50

[ghisler(Author)]

I cannot get any crash here - what files are you comparing? I could reproduce the first reported bug, though.

regardless of file type and size (exe, pdf, text, any file type) when set to binary mode crash as the result ....

[ghisler(Author)]

Sorry, not happening here. Windows 7 X64, tried with TC 8.50 and 8.51 beta 1.

It is very strange, I'm not alone with this issue, but may be some interference with other programs in my PC ....

[petermad]

I can reproduce it under both Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8.1 x64 with TC 8.51b1 x64. Testet with clean ini-files.

Are you sure you rember to perform step 3:

3. Compare.

[ghisler(Author)]

Yes I did - no crash at all. I tried various text and binary files. Maybe I'm just trying the wrong files? Does it happen with any files coming with TC?

Yes, I can produce it by comparing my wincmd.ini and wcxftp.ini
or even better for you comparing descript.ion and Totalcmd.inc

Using TC 8.51b1 x64 under Windows 7 Ultimate x64

[petermad]

I compared TC's history.txt and keyboard.txt - and it happens whether I use Ctrl+C or I right click on the selected line to copy it.

As written before: Testet under Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8.1 x64 with TC 8.51b1 x64. Testet with clean ini-files.

[ghisler(Author)]

Unfortunately I don't get any crash with history.txt and keyboard.txt either - what lines did you try to copy? Left or right panel?
