(null) in Get Info window

Description

I got info on a friend who isn't on my buddy list (so I could give him an alias), but the info window was titled (null)'s Info and the screen name was 48 (not related at all to his actual screen name). See http://members.cox.net/fredhope2000/adiumgetinfo.png.

In Console, all of his messages until I gave him the alias were presented as if his screen name were (null).

(AIM service, Adium .83b4)

Are you able to reproduce this bug at all? If so, can you give any specifics?

Nope. I just got on another screen name in the official client (after removing the screen name from my buddy list), IMed myself, and got info on my other screen name in Adium but it worked fine. So it's a random occurance.

I don't get that window when I view anyone else's info but I get it if I try to view my own info. I can reproduce it every time. I've also been able to reproduce it in all 0.82, 0.83 and 0.84 betas and release.

If I go to the menu and choose to start a new chat. I type in my own name (my sn on aim, for example). It will open a window to myself and I can type and see it come back to me. If I choose to view the info it will open the info window and say (null)'s info and show my username as 1.

I've experienced this once. I had a user on my buddy list on two accounts and tried to get info. Didn't replicate. :/

It has something to do with:

  • A metacontact
  • which has no contained contacts currently known to be online to any connected account
  • and no alias at present

I believe.

I can't reproduce this now, but that doesn't mean it's fixed but rather just rare... not blocking 1.0 on it.

I not only found the reproduction while working on #2424, I found the fix.

  • resolution set to fixed.

(In [14823]) Fixed determination of which contact to show when doing a Get Info; this prevents a situation in which a metacontact would be selected for getting info when the metacontact was actually effectively hidden because it had no contained list objects which were on any online contact list. Fixes #1055

(In [14824]) Oops, the commit message for [14823] was supposed to go here.
