WebCore::Path::platformPath()
expects to be able to return the return value ofWebCore::PlatformPathImpl::platformPath()
as aPlatformPathPtr
without creating a dangling reference. However,WebCore::PathQt::platformPath()
is defined as returning a temporaryQPainterPath
object, which does become a dangling reference when returned by reference, leading to segfaults at runtime.This PR changes the return type of
WebCore::PathQt::platformPath()
toPlatformPathPtr
(paralleling the definition ofWebCore::PathCG::platformPath()
), so as to avoid creating a temporaryQPainterPath
object, thereby avoiding the creation of a dangling reference when returning fromWebCore::Path::platformPath()
.Fixes: #37
