Description

When working with shapefiles, one can consistently crash QGIS when trying to split a polygon.

It seems that with PostGIS layer it doesn't crash.

I'm attaching a very simple shapefile with only one polygon where this can be reproduced. Open it, draw a line that intersects the polygon, on right click it will crash.

Using SVN trunk 9690, debug version, running on ubuntu.

Hi Martin

The example shapefile does not lead to a crash on my system. Which version of geos are you using? I'm using 3.0.0 (also on ubuntu).

#2 Updated by Martin Dobias over 15 years ago

I'm still using geos 2.2.3 from ubuntu.

Neither on my - Debian testing amd64, GEOS 3.0.0.

Not sure if that's relevant, but what are your snapping options? Do you rely on snapping settings from the general 'Options' menu or do you set them for that given layer in project properties? If the latter, do you also set 'Topological editing' and 'Avoid intersections'?

Can you post a backtrace?

I use general snapping options, no topological editing, neither avoid intersections. But shouldn't really matter, the crash is somewhere deep inside splitting routines.

Can you post a backtrace?

#5 Updated by Marco Hugentobler over 15 years ago

Ok, I compiled geos 2.2.3 and I also have the crash.
The geos documentation also gives the reason (see below). I'm going to look for a workaround for geos2 (or an ifdef).

/* May be called on all geometries in GEOS 3.x, returns -1 on error and 1
00374 * for non-multi geometries. Older GEOS versions only accept
00375 * GeometryCollections or Multi* geometries here, and are likely to crash
00376 * when feeded simple geometries, so beware if you need compatibility with
00377 * old GEOS versions.

But GEOSGetGeometryN() is fine with simple geometries?
