Thanks for the update.


Just a small note, the thread title still says 'Beta 2'.

With the beta3, the IDE also crashes very frequently when the code exceeds 16,000 lines. The bug has not been fixed.

Not here. My source is just under 40,000 lines. Must be something else causing the crash.

Is there any bug report opened ?

Fred, do you think it's a good time to "freeze" the IDE for 5.72 release?

I mean, only bugfixes now, and save new features for a future release.

[Fred]

Yes, I won't put any PR anymore in master

Unfortunately there are always people who snap their fingers quickly and say that everything works fine for them.
This does not help with troubleshooting.
The bug has been known for a long time and I have written it to the forum several times.
This bug is available from Purebasic and Spiderbasic.
The error description in the console is:
Floating point exception (memory dump written)
Both IDES, Spider and Purebasic cannot be used with Linux.

Unfortunately I have to use Wine under Linux to work with Purebasic.

Sorry about that. It wasn't intended as a finger-snap; rather, just to point out that it's not a common problem. I won't reply to reports anymore.

[Mindphazer]

He did not clearly specify that the IDE crash problem was on Linux
Therefore, he did not report any problem until Fred asked if there was a bug report open...

@BarryG: He was already starting off on the wrong foot. This is not the thread or forum to make bug reports to. Strangely enough, they would be posted in the Bug Reports forum. People who post in an announcement thread like this one are lucky if they get any action on a bug. If he had posted in an appropriate thread and forum he also should have included the needed details on when and how the bug occurs (in Linux).
