OpenBSD error: Illegal character in format string.

[crsc]

Hello,

I installed FPC 3.0.0 and Lazarus 1.4.4 on OpenBSD x86_64. When I place objects like buttons on the form and press F9 to compile and run, everything works fine. When I change something on the form, like move the buttons or insert some code, I got following error message:

Illegal character in format string.

Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption.
Press Cancel to kill the program.

Now I have to delete following XML file:

~/lazarus/project1/lib/x86_64-openbsd/project1.compiled

Without this file, I can compile again but a compilation create this file again. Before every compilation I have to delete it.

Do you have an idea, what the problem can be and how to fix it?

[Bart]

Can you create a backtrace?
Run Lazarus inside gdb, provoke the error and then create the backtrace.

See: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Creating_a_Backtrace_with_GDB.

Hello Bart,

not sure if I made the backtrace correct:

[Bart]

Thanks for the backtrace.
Before investigating this further, I would like to ask you to try the 1.6RC (witih the same compiler) and see if the issue is present there as well.

If the problem is not there in 1.6, we will not try to fix it in 1.4 branch, since that is end of life.

One more question: do you have the IDE setup in a different language than English?
If so, please make the laguage English to see if the error is gone.
(If so, the problem will be in some .po file, and it should be easy to fix.)

Bart

[crsc]

Hello Bart,

thank you very much for your help. I also tried 1.6RC but the problem is the same. The language of my system and of the lazarus IDE is set on us english. Thanks again.

Greetings,
Christian

PS:

Here the backtrace with 1.6RC1-0:

I keep pestering you:

Please open a ticket about this in the bugtracker.
Not all devels read the forum.
Issues on the bugtracker won't be forgotten.
Attach the backtrace there also.

You can add a link to this forum thread in the description.

If you dare: can you try to reproduce the issue with Lazarus trunk as well?

Bart

[marcov]

That line seems to refer to fileagetostr which uses datetimetostr. That uses system  locale (and afaik that is not related to IDE language which is gettext?)

It's a pity that there are no tracebacks into  the FPC rtl.

Hello Bart,

thank you. I'll open a ticket in the bugtracker soon. First I have to check, how to do it correctly. ;-)

If you dare: can you try to reproduce the issue with Lazarus trunk as well?

The same with Lazarus trunk:

That line seems to refer to fileagetostr which uses datetimetostr. That uses system  locale (and afaik that is not related to IDE language which is gettext?)

It's a pity that there are no tracebacks into  the FPC rtl.

Hello marcov,

the default system locale on OpenBSD is:

$ locale                                                                       
LANG=
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=

Not sure it this is okay for Lazarus. The installed gettext version is ``gettext-0.19.6'' and ``gettext-tools-0.19.6''.

Write a small program that imports "clocale" and sysutils and write out all fields of the formatsettings variable.

[crsc]

Hello marcov,

thank you for your help. I've written a small console fpc program with following output:

CurrencyFormat = "1"
NegCurrFormat = "5"
Ord(ThousandSeparator) = "0"
Ord(DecimalSeparator) = "0"
CurrencyDecimals = "127"
DateSeparator = ":"
TimeSeparator = ":"
ListSeparator = ","
CurrencyString = ""
ShortDateFormat = "hh:nn:ss"
LongDateFormat = "hh:nn:ss"
TimeAMString = "PM"
TimePMString = "Sunday"
ShortTimeFormat = "hh:nn:ss ampm"
LongTimeFormat = "AM"
ShortMonthNames[1] = "Feb"
LongMonthNames[1] = "February"
ShortDayNames[1] = "Mon"
LongDayNames[1] = "Monday"
TwoDigitYearCenturyWindow = "50"

[Bart]

DecimalSeparator is what?
Can you write Ord(DecimalSeparator) as well?

Bart

[marcov]

Hello marcov,

thank you for your help. I've written a small console fpc program with following output:

TimeAMString = "PM"
TimePMString = "Sunday"
ShortTimeFormat = "hh:nn:ss ampm"
LongTimeFormat = "AM"

Seems longtimeformat and AM/PM strings are corrupt. You might workaround this by setting it to something ('yyyy-mm-dd ' +shorttimeformat or so) in the first line of your mainprogram.

Debugging what goes wrong in clocale would even be better.

[crsc]

Hello marcov,

thank you for your support and help. It seems that you have detected the bug. I made my first bugreport. ;-)

http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=29317

[marcov]

Thanks. I added the output of the locale command in a comment.

(edited: New direct gitlab link of the report: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/29317 )

[crsc]

marcov, thank you.

Bart, I updated the table above. The outputs are:

Ord(ThousandSeparator) = "0"
Ord(DecimalSeparator) = "0"
