C::B crashing on start (Ubuntu 13.04 & Mint 15)
« on: July 03, 2013, 01:46:39 pm »
Following the selection of compiler, the program will crash with the attached dump.

This happened on my other installation which has been why I'm using this, it was working.. Until I believe I updated G++ & GCC in the Saucy repo from 3.7 to 3.8, eep. Codeblocks version is irrelevant to this problem happening, tried raring, saucy and Jen's repo. I've tried forcing the G++/GCC version back to 3.7, with the exception of "gcc-4.8-base", which will cheekily install most of the software if removed, possibly the cause.

It seems to be completely my fault this went wrong. If you need any other information, just ask. I've tried to run codeblocks from terminal.. it just doesn't do anything or say anything, in the hope it'd shed some light on the issue. I've had no problems with C::B working on various distros in the past, until now.



Thanks, Turbine.

Uninstall GCC, and run again Code::Blocks. It should let C::B start properly and complain for not finding any compiler installed.

A compiler issue is totally irrelevant to this project and you are violating the forum's rules, I'm afraid.

P.S.: Personal issues have nothing to do with this project and you should avoid sharing such silly things in public.

Codeblocks is failing to start due to some dependant component.

Troll.

I think you've hit the same issue as reported here: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,18088.0.html

And this is what you should do: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,18088.msg123705.html#msg123705

@admins: Can you move the first and my posts in the other topic and probably rename it to something more meaningful?

@ToApolytoXaos:
Please be a bit more polite, Turbine is reporting a real problem not related to the compiler.
You'd have known that if you've looked at the provided crash dump.

Ah he edited his answer and removed the line about girlfriend's mother / father something...i don't remember now.

I think it's best for me to stop trying to help people; as it seems it's pointless.

cheers.

pls post the file /tmp/codeblocks.....

if possible in code tags, or better use some pastebin service, because it is a large file...

It's already attached to the first post, here's a pastebin of the same thing if it's inconvenient.

Turbine: I've told you what to do - contact ubuntu's developers, they ship modified gtk+, so they probably know what is going on.

sry, didn't read earful...

Code
    <frame level="1" function="g_type_check_instance_cast" offset="0000001c"/>
    <frame level="2" function="wxMenu::GtkAppend(wxMenuItem*, int)" offset="00000612"/>
    <frame level="3" function="wxMenu::DoAppend(wxMenuItem*)" offset="0000001e"/>

yea, it's a gtk+ bug, we can't do nothing, as oBFusCATed said

I won't be so sure :) Currently there are some gtk-warnings related to this code,
so probably we are doing something wrong there, but I don't know what.
