Description:
Whenever I try to select one of the tables within the "Catalog" area, MySQL Admin shuts down.  Running it from the command line, I receive the following error information:

glibmm-ERROR **:
unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler:
what: attempt to create string with null pointer

aborting...

When I start it from GUI, I don't get any error messages.  This has only been tested on my local test database.  I haven't tried any remote connections

How to repeat:
- Start MySQL Administrator
- Connect to database
- Select Catalogs
- Select any table from the "Schemata" list

Hi

I cannot reproduce the bug in my machine. Could you please post a backtrace of when you get the crash?

Closing this bug because I think it has been fixed indirectrly in a previous version.
