Fatal freeze trying to enter a changeset comment

[Claudius Henrichs <claudius.h@…>]

How to reproduce:
Prerequisite: Have some changesets uploaded with comments before

• Try to upload a changeset
• Delete the prefilled changeset comment
• Enter The first letter of a previously used changeset comment

Result:

• Complete UI freeze
• Java VM CPU usage peaks to 100%
• Java VM memore usage peaks to all available memory

(I was using farsi UTF8 characters in some of the changeset comments. Not sure if this is related.)

Version 2021 - Present in last tested rev 1981 as well
Plugins:
waydownloader 16963
wmsplugin 17278
remotecontrol 16965

sound like #2542 which has been fixed months ago.

What's your environment? OS? WM? Java VM?

[Gubaer]

Is this related to #2747? Are you working with russian characters?

Unfortunately I cannot kill the locked/looped JOSM to get more information. What I tried was starting JOSM from cmd and hitting Ctrl+Break with the frozen JOSM window focussed which did nothing.

I've been using farsi (similar to arabic script) characters in my comments before.

Deleting upload.comment.history in my JOSM Preferences "solved" this issue for me.

I'm attaching the content of this line here so you can reproduce. I think this bug is a major issue as it's affecting all those emerging OSM regions that are using UTF-8.

confirmed. I had the same problem with Thai characters in the comment field - after deleting upload.comment.history no freezing anymore.

I can confirm the freeze with java 1.6.0_15 and faulty_upload_comment_history

[jttt]

It looks like freeze is caused by EventConsumingPlainDocument in SuggestingJHistoryComboBox. When I don't enable consuming events then josm doesn't freeze.

[stoecker]

Can't we replace the comment history with the AutoComplete code, so we don't have two places with equal code?

[jttt]

I didn't know we have two autocompletion combos. I think they can be merged, SuggestingJHistoryComboBox has some extra features (or rather convenience methods) but AutoCompleteComboBox works fine with multilanguagual texts (tested on faulty_upload_comment_history)

[stoecker]

What extra stuff does SuggestingJHistoryComboBox have?

AutoComplete has one problem with multi-sign input methods. There is a bu report about this. But otherwise it works very good after the last rework I did (which was a very hard job to get all working as expected).

(In [2218]) see #3371: Fatal freeze trying to enter a changeset comment

[Gubaer]

I've removed SuggestingJHistoryComboBox. It's replaced by a HistoryComboBox which combines the features of AutoCompletionComboBox wit the features of the ComboBoxHistory.

In my env, JOSM doesn't freeze any more with the faulty upload comment history.

Played around a bit and it seems to be fixed finally in v2221. Thanks a lot.
