The function doesn't use data members or other member functions. It
could even be put into an unnamed namespace in the cpp file, but that
would require more changes and complicate turning it back into a member
function if need be in the future.
InfoComicsView constructor is the only function that connects to
FlowView's currentCoverChanged signal. Neither of the slots connected to
this signal handles the argument value index==-1. So when FlowView emits
this signal with index==-1, YACReaderLibrary crashes. Returning early
from either ComicsView::updateInfoForIndex() or
InfoComicsView::setCurrentIndex() when index==-1 is not sufficient - the
crash happens in the other slot then. Let us skip emitting the signal in
FlowView if index==-1 rather than return early from both slots.
Steps to reproduce 1:
1. Launch YACReaderLibrary version that matches the version of the
default library database. Alternatively, select a compatible library
after starting the application.
2. If InfoComicsView is not active, switch to it.
3. (optional) Switch to another comics view out of InfoComicsView.
4. Quit YACReaderLibrary. The application crashes during exit - after
the "YACReaderLibrary closed with exit code : 0" message is printed.
Steps to reproduce 2:
1. Launch a YACReaderLibrary version newer than the version of the
default library database.
2. Click the "No" button in the "Update needed" dialog that pops up.
3. Change between comics views until InfoComicsView becomes active. If
this view was active at the beginning, switch through all the views to
get back to it. At this point YACReaderLibrary crashes.
This way we can tell the app that a folder contains mangas so the user doesn't have to constantly set comics as manga when new issues are added. And it should be easier to set all the content in a folder as manga from the folder tree.
List initialization ended using movable constructors which surprisingly caused data troubles in release mode, at least in VC2019 compiler. The tree being messed up caused crashes while SQL was generated.
I have no explanation for it.
