🌐 Web query:

"com.itsaky.androidide.treesitter" TSQuery canAccess nextMatch

💡 Result:

In the android-tree-sitter library (com.itsaky.androidide.treesitter), canAccess() and nextMatch() are methods associated with safe execution and query traversal [1][2]. 1. canAccess(): This method is used to verify the accessibility or validity of a native object (such as a TSQuery, TSNode, or similar structure) before interaction [1][2]. It ensures that the underlying native pointer is not null and that the object is in a state where it can be safely accessed, often preventing native crashes [2]. 2. nextMatch(): Found in TSQueryCursor, this method retrieves the next match for a query [1]. In updated versions of the library, the implementation includes internal checks—specifically checkAccess() and checkExecuted("nextMatch")—to ensure the cursor is properly initialized and valid before calling the native nextMatch function [1]. These checks were part of stability improvements added to the library (which is now archived and unmaintained) to handle native memory management and state validation more strictly [2][3][4]. If you are using this library, ensure you are interacting with these objects within their lifecycle to avoid IllegalStateException or similar errors triggered by these checks [1].

🌐 Web query:

site:github.com/AndroidIDEOfficial/android-tree-sitter "class TSQueryCursor" "nextMatch"

💡 Result:

The TSQueryCursor.nextMatch method is a function found in Tree-sitter language bindings, specifically observed in the android-tree-sitter library [1][2]. It is used to iterate through matches generated by a query against a syntax tree [1]. When called, nextMatch retrieves the next available match from the query cursor [1][2]. In implementations like the Android Tree-sitter library, this method is typically expected to be called after executing a query via an exec method [1][2]. Recent implementations of this method often include logic to verify the execution status of the query [3][4] and, where applicable, process predicates associated with the matched pattern [1][2]. When no further matches are available, the method returns null [1][2].

Protect the TSQuery lifetime during cursor traversal.

doSafeExecQueryCursor() checks query.canAccess() only before exec(). TSQueryCursor.nextMatch() checks the cursor, not its executed TSQuery, before calling native code. A concurrent TSQuery.close() can delete the query after the check and leave the cursor with a dangling native query, which can cause SIGSEGV at either nextMatch() call. Synchronize query closure with exec() and all nextMatch() calls, or guarantee query ownership for the full traversal. Keep the predicate guard as a secondary check and add a regression test.

Agreed, and the PR body says the same thing in weaker words — I'll take the sharper framing. query.canAccess() in the per-iteration condition is a secondary check, not a lifetime guarantee: it is still check-then-use, and a close() landing between the check and nextMatch() still dereferences a dangling query.

Keeping it, because it is strictly better than what was there (the query was checked once, before the loop, and never again) and it costs nothing. But it does not close the window, and I would rather not have the PR imply otherwise. Filing a separate ticket for real ownership of the shared TSQuery — ordering the spec close behind its users, or refcounting — since that spans TsLanguageSpec, the generator's executor and the main thread, and is a bigger change than this ticket.

On the regression test: editor-treesitter has no test source set, and adding one means new test dependencies in vendored sora-editor code. I have not found a way to pin this that does not amount to a race-timing test, and I would rather say that than ship one that passes regardless.

@davidschachterADFA, agreed. The updated framing is accurate.

query.canAccess() improves the current behavior, but it does not protect the TSQuery lifetime between the check and nextMatch(). A full fix needs explicit ownership or shutdown ordering across TsLanguageSpec, the generator executor, and the main thread.

I also agree that a timing-dependent test would not provide reliable regression coverage. The missing test source set makes a deterministic test disproportionate for this PR.

Please link the follow-up ticket here after you create it. 🐇

Timestamp: 2026-09-02T23:28:47.723Z
Learning: For appdevforall/CodeOnTheGo tree-sitter query traversal, `TSQuery.canAccess()` is only a secondary per-iteration mitigation. It does not guarantee `TSQuery` lifetime because `TSQuery.close()` can occur between `canAccess()` and `TSQueryCursor.nextMatch()`. A complete fix requires explicit ownership, reference counting, or close ordering across `TsLanguageSpec`, the span generator executor, and the main thread.

Learning: In `editor-treesitter/src/main/java/io/github/rosemoe/sora/editor/ts/TsAnalyzeWorker.kt`, `TsAnalyzeWorker.stop()` is invoked on the hot path `CodeEditor.setText` → `AnalyzeManager.reset` → `rerun` → `stop`. Do not add routine bounded blocking waits, such as `runBlocking` plus `Job.join()`, to this method. Native document and dispatcher teardown should run from the analyzer loop's `finally` on the thread that owns the native resources.

LOW — the new guard makes this top-of-loop exit reachable, and that exit publishes partial results.

When query.canAccess() now fails inside matchCondition, this while condition breaks the loop without calling onClosedOrEdited() and without (match as? TreeSitterQueryMatch)?.recycle(). Only the inner re-check at line 160 routes through onClosedOrEdited().

Consequence: TsAnalyzeWorker.updateCodeBlocks passes onClosedOrEdited = { blocks.clear() }, so instead of discarding the run it assigns a truncated blocks list to styles.blocks and calls finishBuilding() — folding regions silently disappear rather than being left alone. LineSpansGenerator.captureRegion passes no onClosedOrEdited at all, so a partial span list is written into the caches LruCache and that line stays mis-highlighted until eviction.

Filed as ADFA-5414, but it is cheap to close here: make the top-of-loop exit go through onClosedOrEdited() + recycle() as well.


val result = action(match)

if (!matchCondition(match)) {
if (debugLogging) {
log.debug(
"$debugName: Cannot proceed with query operation.",
"cursor.canAccess=${canAccess()}",
"query.canAccess=${query.canAccess()}",
"node.canAccess=${node.canAccess()}",
"node.hasChanges=${node.canAccess() && node.hasErrors()}"
)
}
onClosedOrEdited()
break
}

(match as? TreeSitterQueryMatch?)?.recycle()

// if the action does not produce any output and simply returns Unit (void)
// then ignore the result and continue with the capture
if (result != Unit && result != null) {
return result
}
