Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Run Dolphin.app
  2. Click on any of the plugin config buttons (i.e. audio)
  3. Dismiss the error stating that the .dylib cannot be found (despite it
    existing in the path specified in the message)
  4. The program will crash after the dialog is dismissed

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to get the audio config dialog, but failing that, would expect the
system to not crash if it isn't finding it correctly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN r2540

Please provide any additional information below.
This incident was reported in the forums. Here is the last forum post:

Interestingly, the program did not crash the first time I tried this in the
debugger. In my experience this means that there is a variable that was not
initialized to a default value, and depending on the compiler/OS, either
gets a sane default value or trash. However, it looks like m_DllConfig is
getting set to NULL in the CPlugin constructor, then set again using
m_hInstLib.Get. Maybe that .Get is returning garbage:

Download source Code
(gdb) print m_DllConfig
Cannot access memory at address 0x18

I do get an error message that pops up and then gets dismissed - that of
saying "Panic, can't open this dynlib plugin, it's missing" when in fact
the file is there, but I think the program state is corrupted much earlier
in execution, before the dialog.

Full backtrace:
