         http://download.berlios.de/codeblocks/CB_20060324_rev2247_fc4.rpm (not yet)

Resolved Fixed:

  • Cleaned up context menu of open files list (patch #931)
  • Added missing #include in EditorBase
  • Major code-completion speed-up on large projects loading: the tokenizing phase would happen inside the main thread: BAD!
  • Updated contrib plugin (DragScroll) project files to newest version
  • Updated contrib plugins (unix) project files to newest version
  • Moved class-browser tree generation to a separate thread. No more temporary freezes when saving large projects :)
  • (wxSmith : Added support for loading/saving child items
    wxsProject class does not have resource types hard-coded at all. Everything moved to resource factory.
    Editor can now be opened
    New resources can be added to project
    Bug fix for invalid properties handling when using wxsPropertyContainer::SubContainer() call
    Some seg fault bug fixes
    Added codeblocks.exe as startup application)
  • Updated to newest version of cbSplashScreen
  • Updated unix project file to newest version
  • Removed stripping of debug symbols in output/ directory
  • Fixed all code-completion threading issues/freezes, mainly under Linux
    (hopefully). Also fixes freeze when entering Settings->Editor
  • Fixed "clear" buttons in compiler options. Would only work if an entry
    was selected in the relevant list

Regressions/Confirmed/Annoying/Common bugs:

  • toolbar-images-not-changing-state (is a wx problem)
  • there are several issues with Code Completion (is being redesigned : work in progress)

Progressing very nicely... :D

In the main File menu there are two options with the same shortcut: "(R)ecent projects" and "(R)ecent files". Can the shortcut for the second one be changed to "recent (F)iles" instead? This way we don't have to use the arrow keys to get to the desired one.

Thanks!

Hello,

Could you explain me what is exactly Updated to newest version of cbSplashScreen?

Is there a relation with the following bug?

If yes, the bug is still present.

It is exactly what it says. The class was updated to the newest release.

No, it is not related to that bug.

this one is not fixed yet, but there's a patch from the_nullinator, which needs to be checked and applied.

I can't open anymore my old projects. C::B crashes just a second after loading the projects.
All project are created using the same template (if i try to open it, C::B crashes).

I attach the template project.

Hello Trikko,

I have tested your project and I have the same problem like you but there is a way to bypass it.
Launch C::B from its shortcut and disable the option "Show Spash screen at startup" in the menu "Settings" an "Environnements"
Or you can simply open your project directly in C::B once launched.
C::B should convert your project normally.

It will probably help you.

are any of you guys building cb itself ??
I applied the modified patch from the_nullinator.
I will fix some issues, but i wonder if the crash is gone ?
The casue of the crash might be something different, but the double loading of projects might make it visible off course.

if you guys don't build yourself, post it here, then I will create a temporary build so you can test it out ...

the bad news : the crash is not gone !!!!!
This is what I am suffering from (windows XP : revision 2255):

- I have a simple project, old version : 1.3
TEST 1:
--------
- in explorer I double click on it's .cbp file
- CB starts : shows it splash screen, shows the first message box, saying that we need to go from projects versions 1.3 to 1.4, and then nothing happens anymore, CB is using 99% cpu.

TEST 2:
--------
 - open CB, open my 'old' project
 - message box 1 : 1.3 to 1.4
 - message box 2 : saying the project file fomat will be updated on save
 - --> project is open, close it, but don't save it (so it remains on 1.3)

TEST 3:
--------
 - in CB, settings->Environment->untick "Show splash screen at startup"
 - close CB
 - in explorer I double click on our project's .cbp file
 - message box 1 and message box 2 show up, and the project is loaded


--> what is wrong ? deadlock between splash and the 2 message boxes ?? or is DDE also involved ?

[EDIT : EXTRA]

TEST 4:
--------
 - in CB, settings->Environment->tick "Show splash screen at startup", and untick "Run DDE server"
 - close CB
 - in explorer I double click on our project's .cbp file
 - messagebox 1  AND (!!!) error box saying that my cbp could not be found (remark1), click ok in the error box, click ok in the messagebox1 --> CB hangs (99% cpu)
 ------> this seems to indicate it is not DDE related


remark 1:
---------
 -> this is very weird this error used to show up in the past when the DDE was running, now it's the opposite
