Bug in RVGetTextLength function

Post by JPR »

Hello everybody,

I have a bug (I think in RVGetTextLength function)

If I do that, DELPHI send me Out of limit (-1)

MyRichViewEdit.Clear;
ShowMessage(IntToStr(RVGetTextLength(MyRichViewEdit)));

Have youa solution for that Sergey ?

Thank

JP

You need to call Format after Clear.

Well, yes, calling Format saves the situation for TRichViewEdit (because it adds one empty text item).
But not for TRichView, so it may be really considered as a bug.
Fix: open RVLinear.pas, change RVGetTextLength:

Code: Select all

function RVGetTextLength(rv: TCustomRichView): Integer;
begin
  Result := 0;
  if rv.ItemCount=0 then
    exit;
  RichViewToLinear(rv, rv.RVData, rv.RVData, rv.ItemCount-1,
    rv.GetOffsAfterItem(rv.ItemCount-1), Result);
  if Result>0 then
    dec(Result);
end;
