Description Igor Foox 2005-07-05 17:10:50 UTC 
Version details: 2.6
Distribution/Version: Red Hat Fedora Core 4

The method markExists(String name) in the class TextBuffer always returns true,
no matter whether it should actually return false or not. This happens
consistently in gtk 2.6.

Example of a simple breaking case

Here is a small sample program that illustrates the problem, it simply
initializes the gtk main loop, then creates a TextBuffer and then checks if it
has a mark (which was not added).
Comment 2 Ismael Juma 2005-07-15 16:01:07 UTC 
Works with HEAD. So the problem is just in the gtk-java-2-6 branch.

Patch for the 2-6 branch

Solves the problem for 2-6 branch by changing != null to ! ... .isNull().

A more sophisticated test case

This test case checks if a mark doesn't exist, then adds it, and checks that it
exists.

Thanks for the patch. Committed to the gtk-java-2-6 branch.
