Infinite recursion on table creation

[sjcbulldog]

I do not know how to create this on JSFiddle or anywhere else as this only happens occasionally. I have tried creating smaller test cases other than my electron application, but the bug does not show. I am going to put this here and you can close without review if you so desire. I hope the display of the stack below is of help.

I create a tablulator table with four fixed columns. Rows are assigned to the table when created. The renderer process then freezes and if I use the debugger to figure out what is going on, there is an infinite recursion around resize.

Note, the problem disappears when I assign specific widths to the columns in the column descriptors.

I have worked around this by building the table with fixed widths columns and on the tableBuilt event iterating through columns and setting their width to fit content via setWidth(true).

I understand your desire to have reproducible test cases, so throw this away if it does not help, but at least here is some data on the infinite recursion that is happening for me.

_create
  _initializeTable
    setColumns
      redraw
        verticalAlignHeaders
          adjustTableSize
            dispatch <-----------------------------
              _dispatch                           |
                tableResized                      |
                  redraw                          |
                    reRenderInPosition            |
                      rerenderRows                |
                        _virtualRenderFill        |
                          adjustTableSize --------|

I ran into the same problem:

• most often this problem occurs in Safari
• only occurs with certain combinations of width/resolution and table width

The table doesn't render because the JS crashes on an infinite loop.

The bug is unfortunately very hard to reproduce :-(
