Hi,
I use the latest emacs from CVS under windows.
I use bbdb and I found out, that the bbdb append feature does not
work with my emacs.
I tried the same feature on my debian box with the latest debian
emacs packages. It works on debian.
Here is the recipe for the test (in a bbdb buffer):
I type:
b search-string1 <RET>
+ b search-string2 <RET>
But the second search always clears the first one and I get only the
results of the second search.
On linux (emacs21.2.2) I get the correct result:
records with search-string1 and search-string2 are shown.
I started to debug the bbdb query.
Here is, what I found out:
* In the function bbdb-display-records-1, there is a call to
with-output-to-temp-buffer.
* Before the call to this function, the variable bbdb-records
contains the already visible bbdb-entries.
* After the call to with-output-to-temp-buffer, the variable
bbdb-records is nil
+ On linux this variable has still the same value as before
+ I fixed the problem with the new variable xbbdb-records
* My question is now, is this a bug of with-output-to-temp-buffer?
I sent the things I found out to the emacs developers, here is the
response from RMS:
RMS> You need to report this to the bbdb maintainers. We don't
RMS> know the code of bbdb. It could be that this is an Emacs bug,
RMS> but we cannot afford to study the code of bbdb to investigate it.
RMS>
RMS> If the bbdb maintainers find that the bug seems to be in Emacs,
RMS> they need to provide us with a precise test case that doesn't
RMS> involve using bbdb. Then we can take it the rest of the way.
My changed function looks like this:
(defun bbdb-display-records-1 (records &optional append layout)
(setq append (or append (bbdb-append-records-p)))
(if (or (null records)
(consp (car records)))
