[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60473] rmdir called with empty string causes gui to crash on windows

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #60473 (project octave):

The interpreter notifies the GUI when a directory is removed.  Then a Qt
signal is emitted and the editor function that responds to the signal was
trying to remove double quote characters (if any) at the beginning and end of
the file.  But there was no check there for the file name being empty so there
was an attempt to index a QString object with an out of bounds index and
that's what caused the crash.
