Subject: bug#222: isearch-repeat-forward: wrong overlay after failure
Date: Sun, 11 May 2008 16:52:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D33C5B65-3FAC-4CAB-8819-A9B91CC859F7__42068.5655008585$1210522365$gmane$org@gmail.com> (raw)
isearch wrongly highlights a part of a buffer when `isearch-forward'
fails.
To reproduce, create buffer A, containing just the following:
123456
Also, create buffer B, containing
12346
Now switch to buffer A, move point to the beginning, and do C-s 5.
The `5' will be highlighted.
Then switch to buffer B and move point to the beginning. (You can
show the buffers in two windows, or just switch between them: it
doesn't matter.)
Then do M-x isearch-repeat-forward. (Do NOT do C-s C-s.)
You will find that `6' is highlighted, and a (correct) message is
displayed that the search failed. (It appears that the text at a
position equivalent to where the last match was in the previous buffer
is highlighted.)
The overlay in buffer B shouldn't be there.
This issue has been around for a long time, and I suspect it was never
noticed because many people just do C-s C-s rather than binding a key
to `isearch-repeat-forward'.
