IDE Crash - Cause unknown

Post by StarBootics »

Hello everyone,

I have just installed the last 5.21 Beta 1, and when I compile a large program with the debugger everything is OK. But when I call a procedure where an OpenFileRequester() is called in addition to other instructions that I programmed myself, the IDE just crash and don't generate any report, or popup an error message, or the debugger tell the problem. Something completly weird, my program continues as if nothing had happened. I have try to add some stop point and go step by step to see where the program just trip. I have also activate the Purifier just in case. So far everything I have done don't give any result.

Does anyone went into a similar problem ? If so, how to get rid of a problem like this ?

By the way, the samething happen with the 5.20 version.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yesterday i installed Fedora 20 alpha and could notice a similar behaviour. In most cases, the debugger stopped at a line with a WaitWindowEvent() command or a Reqester-Dialog where also an event loop is running. In another thread i read about changing the current GTK theme will help, and indead, when i changed the default theme "Adwaita" to "HighContrast", everything works. The problem exists with PB 5.20 and also 5.21 beta.

I hope Fred will soon find the cause. So long i am stuck to Fedora 19 :-(

Best regards
Uwe
