bug#36328: [address@hidden: Re: bug#36328: 26.2; Args out of range on search-and-replace of *.cc file]

[Alan Mackenzie]

Hello, Juri.

As the replace.el expert here, could you please have a look at bug
#36328, and in particular, comment on Jayden's patch (below), which I
think would be a good fix for the bug.

Is there anything we've missed, such as unforeseen and unwanted effects
somewhere else?

Thanks!

Hi Alan,

Thank you for looking into this!

Until this is officially fixed I've come up with the following workaround,
going off of the details you provided:

I created a "replace_fixed.el" file in "~/.emacs.d/lisp/" that is
replace.el taken from
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/emacs-26/lisp/replace.el
with
the following diff:

diff --git a/replace.el b/replace_fixed.el
index 08feb8e..8280fdd 100644
--- a/replace.el
+++ b/replace_fixed.el
@@ -2227,7 +2227,7 @@ It is called with three arguments, as if it were
            (isearch-forward (not backward))
            (isearch-other-end match-beg)
            (isearch-error nil))
-       (isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop range-beg range-end))))
+       (save-match-data (isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop range-beg
range-end)))))

 (defun replace-dehighlight ()
   (when replace-overlay

Then I added the following to my "~/.emacs", restarted my emacs server, and
the issue was gone!:

(load-library "~/.emacs.d/lisp/replace_fixed.el")

This probably isn't the proper fix, but just thought I'd share in case
anyone else is experiencing this and wanted a temporary workaround.

Best,
Jayden
