Checked in and tested the changes on Windows 4/27/98 - 2:00pm.

I marked this as verified since the bug is a code issue, and there is nothing for QA to really verify.

Messenger thread pane sort using this dll. Using 4/29 Win32 build (after removing mozregisty.dat file), after I hit a tab for the subject for sorting I got errors like this. nsComponentManager: Load(nslocale.dll) FAILED with error: error 0 Is this related to this change? Looks like other components (e.g. converter) are working fine.

I could be, I'll take a look at it.

is this an M5 stopper?

I don't get any errors with 1999-05-03-08 build on US NT4. I clicked on Subject, Sender and Date headers in the thread pane. Naoki, Are you still crashing?

I used 1999-05-03-08 from ftp and still seeing the same message in the console at first time hit a subject tab to sort. I have not seen crash for this, only errors in the console as I mentioned in my previous comment.

We aren't getting a crash -- only console error messages on the first attempt. Moving this to M6.

Correction to my last comment. On the first attempt to sort a header, I do get the error messages in the console window.

I'm reassigning this to DP. There is some problem with how nsComponentManager is discovering the various components. The reason the library load is failing, is because the component manager is attempting to open "nslocale.dll", instead of using the full path to the library (GetFullPath() is returing only the library name and not the full path), so the call to PR_LoadLibrary fails.

Ok Here is what I did. I commented out all the calls to RegisterComponent(NSLOCALE_DLL) from nsSetupRegistery.cpp Invoked messenger. I get the folderpane and msglistpane empty. I clicked on the headings Name, Unread, Subject, Sender, Date. I see these output in my shell window. No msg about not being able to load nslocale.dll without a path as it should be. Can someone help me reproduce the bug: OpenURL from XUL nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Getting the webShell of interest... nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Got the webShell browser.webwindow. $573 $573 msgaccounts:/ msgaccounts:/ msgaccounts:/ ---------------------------- -- Sort -- Column: http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#Subject -- Direction: ascending ---------------------------- $585 OpenURL from XUL nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Getting the webShell of interest... nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Got the webShell browser.webwindow. ---------------------------- -- Sort -- Column: http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#Sender -- Direction: descending ---------------------------- $585 OpenURL from XUL nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Getting the webShell of interest... nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Got the webShell browser.webwindow.

move back to me

Checked in a new fix for this with dp's help. fix should be in 5/12/99 and later.

Tague, can you verify this fix? Thanks

marking verified since it is a code fix
