#6384 closed defect (duplicate)

Undefined response object causing errors

Description

Environment

I am using Adblock Plus for Firefox from hg as development extension.

How to reproduce

  1. debug the extension
  2. open any site with ads
  3. see error response is undefined include.preload.js:682

...

Observed behaviour

The include.preload.js code after browser.runtime.sendMessage({type: "elemhide.getSelectors"}, response => assumes there is always a response object.

If that is expected, there is some issue because some call won't pass an object, but undefined instead.
If that's not expected, there should be a guard against response != null or similar before checking its properties.

Expected behaviour

No error in the extension debugger console.

6385 wasn't there when I've created this one but thanks for adding me in CC, that's surely a better ticket than this one.

Yea we created the issues at about the same time, well you can see from the numbers that yours was first! FWIW I would have marked my issue as a duplicate of yours if I had not already investigated the problem and came up with a fix.

Absolutely! I was just trying to say that I did search before opening the ticket but you did a better job describing the issue later on.

Happy to know there's a fix already
