Bug #12346: Ruby 2.3.0 64-bit (mingw64-32) WIN32OLE_TYPE.typelibs seg faults on Windows 10 64-bit

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: windows
• Target version: -
• ruby -v: ruby 2.3.0p0 (2015-12-25 revision 53290) [x64-mingw32]
• Backport: 2.3: DONE

[allen (Allen Hewes)]

Ruby Windows binaries are from RubyInstaller.org.

Seg fault also happens with Ruby 2.3.1 using the same 64-bit DevKit.

in the test suite file test/win32ole/test_win32ole_type.rb, there is the test
test_s_typelibs:

def test_s_typelibs 
  tlibs = WIN32OLE_TYPE.typelibs.sort 
  tlibs2 = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.typelibs.collect{|t|t.name}.sort
  assert_equal(tlibs2, tlibs) 
end 

Ruby 2.3.0 64-bit produces segmentation fault at both places:

  tlibs = WIN32OLE_TYPE.typelibs.sort
  tlibs2 = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.typelibs.collect{|t|t.name}.sort 

very basic one line check for each test:

ruby.exe -e "require 'win32ole'" -e "puts WIN32OLE_TYPE.typelibs.count"
ruby.exe -e "require 'win32ole'" -e "puts WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.typelibs.collect{|t|t.name}.count"

fails in:
ruby-2.3.0-x64-mingw32 (see attachments)

works in:
ruby-2.3.0-i386-mingw32 (572)
ruby-2.2.4-i386-mingw32 (572)
ruby-2.2.4-x64-mingw32 (574)
ruby-2.1.8-i386-mingw32 (572)
ruby-2.1.8-x64-mingw32 (574)

I've attached the crash outputs for both:

WIN32OLE_TYPE.typelibs.sort = ruby-2.3.0p0-test_s_typelibs-seg-fault.txt
WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.typelibs.collect{|t|t.name}.sort = ruby-2.3.0p0-test_s_typelibs-collect-seg-fault.txt

I can't reproduce it with the trunk and 2.3.1 on Windows 7.
Probably it is related to the content of your registry.
Could you try building with -O0 and running from a debugger?

• Description updated (diff)

[allen (Allen Hewes)]

It could be something with my registry but it works in Ruby 2.3.0 32-bit, Ruby 2.2.5 64-bit and Ruby 2.2 HEAD 64-bit.

Ruby 2.2 HEAD 64-bit:
