NormaliseToMonitors segmentation fault on bad input

Description (last modified by Russell Taylor) (diff)

The following sequence of commands in the GUI cause a segmentation fault on RHEL5 and Win32:

  1. Load a data file, e.g. MAR11001.raw
  1. Execute NormaliseToMonitor
    • set the input W/S as MAR11001
    • set output W/S as e.g. test
    • set Monitor W/S as MAR11001 (this is not valid, but a user could do it)
    • Run the algorithm - error "MonitorWorkspace must contain only 1 spectrum" is given.
  2. Execute NormaliseToMonitor again
    • keep input and output as before but set MonitorWorkspace to the empty value
    • Run the algorithm - MantidPlot exits with a segmentation fault.

NormaliseToMonitor has been extensively changed since this ticket was written, mainly under #4400. I can't get this to crash, and actually step 2 doesn't fail any more.
