I have a custom window with id 9542 and an edit control with id 30 and radio button with id 70

I want to read text entered in the edit control, so I do following in my script

PHP Code:
myWindow = xbmcgui.Window(19542)
ctrlEditIPAddress = myWindow.getControl(30) 

the xbmc crashes with message:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

when I try to pass id of radio button like this:

PHP Code:
myWindow.getControl(70) 

It does not crash.
So why is it crashing for edit control?

Thanks for help in advance.

I have the same Problem with Android, Win 7 64bit work

Code:
xel = xbmcgui.Window(xbmcgui.getCurrentWindowId())

    timex = xel.getControl(1304).getText()

what alternative there is to editcontrol

please help

Supply an example script and a dev will test it out and/or fix the problem.

if you save this as a script and callest, goodbye xbmc
but there must exist a editcontroll - with other Controlls there is no problem, only with the editcontrol
under windows also no problem

gruß Gerhard

Code:
import xbmcplugin,xbmcgui,xbmc,xbmcaddon,time

from datetime import date, datetime, timedelta

def crashAndroid():

    xel = xbmcgui.Window(xbmcgui.getCurrentWindowId())

    timex = xel.getControl(1304).getText()        # Edit Control in a View

    print timex

crashAndroid()

and this is the Control

Code:
    <control type="edit" id="1304">

                    <posx>10</posx>

                    <posy>530</posy>

                    <width>160</width>

                    <height>25</height>

                    <visible>true</visible>

                    <aligny>center</aligny>

                    <label>Play Time:</label>

                    <hinttext>$INFO[System.Time]</hinttext>

                    <font>font12_title</font>

                    <textoffsetx>10</textoffsetx>

                    <texturefocus>scrollxf-full.png</texturefocus>

                    <texturenofocus>scrollx-full.png</texturenofocus>

                    <pulseonselect>no</pulseonselect>

                </control>

EDIT: with setText() same Problem

jmarshall · 2014-08-03, 08:55

I can see some potential threading issues with calls to getText/setText, but the getControl() by itself doesn't cause it, right? (As per the original thread).

Gerhard.S · 2014-08-03, 09:05

getControl for Buttons work very fine, i think its a Problem with the Edit Control

Buttons Big Grin

local = xel.getControl(1307).getLabel()
datex = xel.getControl(1301).getLabel()
stream = xel.getControl(1311).getLabel()

Edit Control Confused

timex = xel.getControl(1304).getText()

what is the alternative to a EditControll, i only need one input option for a string

jmarshall · 2014-08-03, 09:10

Again, it's not the problem with the getControl(). The problem is getText(), correct?

Gerhard.S · (This post was last modified: 2014-08-03, 10:48 by Gerhard.S.)

yes, the problem is getText()

Edit:
one Poeple test it with ATV 2 - no Problems, work 100%

Nod

This Crash Is Powered By Android Nod

Gerhard.S · (This post was last modified: 2014-08-03, 13:29 by Gerhard.S.)

here an alternative which I now use:

I have now created a regular Button, and call this definition to - later I retrieve only the label
also works on Android

Code:
def timeset():

    xel = xbmcgui.Window(xbmcgui.getCurrentWindowId())

    dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()        

    keyboard = xbmc.Keyboard()

    keyboard.setHiddenInput(False)

    keyboard.setHeading('Set Play Time - examples 20:15 or 2015 or 20x15 ')

    keyboard.doModal()

    if keyboard.isConfirmed():            

           timex = keyboard.getText()

           xel.getControl(1304).setLabel(timex)

Hi,

Is there any fix to this? I'm having exactly the same problem on Linux.

koci5 · 2016-12-25, 19:14

This issue is on Android version of Kodi only right now.

The ControlEdit is somehow broken on android version of kodi.

When there id a ControlEdit, and user invoke 'back' or self.close() it crash with this log:

This is the fix for the issue, as this is an android issue only:

In my case I had in `onInit`

python:
self._address = self.getControl(IP_ADDRESS)

I end up with not binding this control to variable I just replace all the variable with direct self.getControl(IP_ADDRESS)
