The 15 December 2019 build (11927) is out.

[cacb]

Please try to find which night build broke this.
It is either the switch to wx3.1.1 or wx3.1.3.

I encourage others to check this as well. I have little time to do this now, but I was able to check it in Nightly 11872 - it does not show the same problem.

11890 (wx3.1.1) works, 11918 (wx3.1.3) does not work (Windows 10)

EDIT: also fails in Windows 7

I don't know how often sometimes is, i am also only on 11911 but there don't seem to be relevant changes up to 11918, but with [email protected] i cannot reproduce that.

Does this file exist?

Code: [Select]

/Users/xavier/dev/CB/buildOSX/output/lib/codeblocks/plugins/libwxSmithAui.dylib

I wonder if it exists whether it might be a permission issue.

Just a wild guess from a Windows OS user.

Tim S.

Yes it does (and the 2 other libs that are in error too).
And the permissions are the same than the other files : -rwxr-xr-x

In my experience recently for this bug, "sometimes" means that it happens more often than not.  It is reproducible as explained erlier.

I have tested r11954 (current head) with wx3.1.2 and there is no problem with IncrementalSearch, so the problem seems related to a change in wxWidgets made between 3.1.2 and 3.1.3

@Miguel Gimenez: Would you have time to do a bisection of wx? Or try to debug why does it happen?

[grem]

wx3.1.1 or wx3.1.3

@oBFusCATed, do you know is it planing to release Codeblocks 20.x afrer wxwidgets 3.2 release?

From https://trac.wxwidgets.org/wiki/Roadmap

we plan to release one last 3.1.4 release in 3.1.x series in the beginning of 2020 with 3.2.0 follwowing soon afterwards.

I ask because in the gentoo currently wxGTK-3.0-gtk3 is preferred for codeblocks-17.12 (live-ebuild is required update for it). And as I know there will not be wxGTK-3.1 in portage tree as it is development branch.

[oBFusCATed]

There will be a release 20.xx, hopefully soon. We don't plan to wait wx to release whatever they release, because they are notorious for missing their release dates . Using gtk3 at the moment is not a good idea if people aren't prepared to fix things, or at least report problems (in both wx and cb).

[grem]

Thank you for reply. Waiting with impatience

Unfortunately I currently use Codeblocks extremly rarely but during last two years there were not any issue reports about codeblocks + wxgtk-3.0-gtk3 (at least I don't remember about them as package maintainer). Therefore this revision in stable branch now.

So Codeblocks 20.xx in gentoo will be with wxGTK-3.0-gtk3 as gentoo wxwidgets team asked to use it for new revisions. Then after wxGTK-3.2-gtk3 release most likely there will be revision for it.

[oBFusCATed]

I don't think it is a good idea to use gtk3, yet, even with trunk. From what I've seen there are problems.

This is the offending commit: Make wxComboCtrl a wxCompositeWindow

https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/commit/70e9dbd756cb321fb85d6380b3e37bcd59604e09

This commit was reverted after wx3.1.3 release in commit https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/commit/6b00cc80f1fdb3ef134e2df694a0c34905442042

[cacb]

@Miguel Gimenez : Well done! I hope to see a new nightly soon with this fixed.

[Miguel Gimenez]

Is there any good reason for using wxComboCtrl instead of wxComboBox?. The fancy customization capabilities of the former are not used (at first glance).

[ollydbg]

The font problem is because of a wxWidgets problem when loading fonts from string, introduced with version 2 of font serializing in wx3.1.2. It was reported by Ollydbg and it still unfixed.

https://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/18590

This issue is fixed in wx's trunk.

Allow parsing all fractional sizes in wxFont descriptions · wxWidgets/[email protected]

I think we should have this patch in C::B's wx 3.1.3 (in either nightly build or official 20.xx release)
