* bug#5851: 24.0.50; first character after opening quote often gets eaten in CC modes

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

As can be seen from 'recent input' section below, I typed a string in
C++ mode like this:

    "{}

However, due to an error in the Lisp code (byte-code: Invalid search
bound (wrong side of point)), it ended up looking like this:

    "}

i.e. the very first character after the opening quote got eaten and
never inserted into the buffer.

This does not happen always, but often enough.  It has been happening
for quite some time now, i.e. it is not something introduced very
recently.

Paul

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file

FWIW the bug is still present.  I get this backtrace (2011-02-19
build):

    (error "Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)")
      signal(error ("Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)"))
      byte-code("\bb\210\302	@	A\"\207" [start err signal] 3)
      c-syntactic-re-search-forward("[;{}]" 8510 end)
      c-before-change-check-<>-operators(6462 6462)
      #[(fn) "\b	\n\"\207" [fn beg end] 3](c-before-change-check-<>-operators)
      mapc(#[(fn) "\b	\n\"\207" [fn beg end] 3] (c-extend-region-for-CPP c-before-change-check-<>-operators))
      c-before-change(6462 6462)
      self-insert-command(1)
      call-interactively(self-insert-command nil nil)

I cannot find a reliable way to reproduce, but it happens often
enough.  Apparently, buffers not touched in quite a while are more
prone.  I.e. open a C++ file and leave it alone for 5 minutes.  Then
switch to the buffer and type outside any string a double quote
following by any other character --- the second character will likely
get eaten with an error as above.  M-x toggle-debug-on-error helps
spotting it.

Maybe this is fixed in master now, along with Bug#28850?  (the error
there is the same, though the backtrace is a bit different)

Indeed, it looks like this has been fixed on master -- or at least I
can't reproduce it.  Alan, what do you think?

No further comments within 6 weeks.  I'll give it a couple of more
weeks, and if no one objects within that time, I'll just assume that
this has indeed been fixed and close this bug report.

Meanwhile, if anyone has been seeing this issue, please try it on
current master to see if the issue persists, then report back your
findings.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

I think the time has come to close the bug.  I think it highly likely
it's been fixed, probably quite some while ago.  There have been quite a
few bugs with similar symptoms over the years.

Thanks, I'm therefore closing the bug now.
