Bug 55412 – Frequent crashes in CFURLCache code on Snow Leopard

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

We're passing a wrong path when creating an NSURLCache, so it can't initialize an SQL database, and misbehaves.

not?

Should we assert that strlen(…) is > 0 first?

Fixed in http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/79927.

Note that there is some controversy around whether it's really OK for CString length to not match strlen. But we already use strlen with -[NSFileManager stringWithFileSystemRepresentation:length:] elsewhere.
