PureBasic IDE just Vanishes

Post by swhite »

Hi

As mentioned in my previous bug report I am using PB 5.45 on OpenSuse 43.2 and sometimes after a mouse click the IDE just vanishes and I am left looking at the desktop.

So I have found the IDE to be very unstable.

Hi

On Friday the IDE worked fine all day. Now on Monday it vanishes when I click on the "Procedures" tab and I get the following message when re-loading the IDE.
A previous IDE session seems to have ended improperly.
Do you want to open the session history to recover
unsaved changes?

Hi

I have also discovered that after using the IDE for a while it seems to settle down and work correctly I cannot say yet what causes the change but at some point the IDE just begins to work and I have not further issues throughout the day. So I am beginning to think that some activity within the IDE affects the stability for the better but I do not know which one. All I can say is the IDE starts out initially as very unstable and then after some time it just works without issues. I have noticed that the auto-complete form works correctly initially during the unstable period then becomes blank once the IDE stabilizes. Perhaps there is a connection.

Can you start the IDE from a console and tell me if there is some output in the console when the IDE disappears?
