This (small) problem is related to my post on getsatisfaction.

Locus crashes reproducibly when deleting geocaches from a search result set.

Steps to reproduce:
  • search for a geocache by name
  • from the search result set, select a cache. The cache details are shown, there is no "tools" menu available.
  • Now, update the cache via gc4l (3rd party menu -> update cache)
  • The cache is updated, the details of the updated cache are displayed, this time showing a "tools" menu
  • Now delete the cache using "tools"->"delete"
  • The cache is deleted, but still available in the search result set. If you select it again from the search result set, Locus crashes.

After deleting the cache, Locus should update the search result set accordingly to avoid that.

However, without the last step this is a possibility to delete caches from a search result; I was still missing that function described in my getsatisfaction post.  ;)

hi mambo,
  hmm nice solution for "deleting points" :). Whole searching system in locus desperately needs rewrite and I currently do not want to spend time on some partial solution. On second time I don't want invest week on precise solution now. So I fixed this by preventing Locus crash (instead it display "Unexpected error"). Sorry, I have no better solution for you now
