Bug ID: 514764
Summary: "Find new items" background task is not stopped when
closing DigiKam
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version First 8.8.0
Reported In:
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you close the DigiKam software while the "Find new items" background process
is running, the main DigiKam window will close but the scan process will
continue (probably until it completes?)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start ProcMon and filter for DigiKam process / QueryDirectory operation
2. Start DigiKam
3. In my case, the "Find new items" background task automatically starts (and
can be monitored in the background tasks tray)
4. Confirm ProcMon is logging
5. Close DigiKam
OBSERVED RESULT
ProcMon is still scanning folders way after DigiKam closed and Task Manager
still shows DigiKam as a running background task.
EXPECTED RESULT
The background process whould be cleanly aborted if the main application is
closed. Additionaly, a popup could ask the user if he really wants to close the
application since it will interrupt background processes.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
digiKam: 8.8.0
KDE Frameworks: 6.17.0
Qt: Using 6.9.1 and built against 6.9.1
Windows 11 Version 25H2
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-llp64
Kernel: winnt 10.0.26200
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Each time I start a new DigiKam instance, these background processes will pile
up. I suppose that at some point, races could occur...
