[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55347] PVS studio static analysis report

[Torsten]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #55347 (project octave):

I am currently trying to fix the numerous "V522: There might be dereferencing
of a potential null pointer 'settings'" by adding some tests in
resource_manager::get_settings () method. This should also prevent the GUI
from crashing with signal 5 when the max number of files was opened (bug
#49736) since the access to the settings file might fail even though
"settings" points to a valid QSettings instance.

Since this cset will affect many files and methods I am wondering whether it
should go into the default or stable branch.
