print a file and settings - strange behaviours

[Huipil]

I have ubuntu 12.04 with kde. I have installed code::blocks v12.11 rev 8629 build: 8 Dec 2012
I have 2 problems:

- when I print a file like this --> http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/9109/schermata8p.png
  the result is --> http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/6131/schermata7v.png

- I try to change editor settings (like Syntax highlighting or margins and carte) but it doesn't save them after restart,
  and most of all the program does not close when I click close button, I've used system monitor and I have seen that the program is still running after I made some settings change and tried to close it.

  So, summarizing it, I can close codeblocks correctly only if I don't make any setting change, otherwise it stays running and after force closing it doesn't apply changes.

How can I solve?

thanks a lot

any help?

Where did you get the package from that you used to install?
Does it close if you disable all plugins (and/or start Code::Blocks in safe mode)?

[Huipil]

from this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~pasgui/+archive/ppa/
but it's the same for codeblocks from repositories

however, how can i do that? I disabled all plugins manually and saved prospective, but now it's still opened and I can't close it. I force closed it.
I reopened it (without any opened .c file in it) , it didn't save anything from last session so all plugins are enabled, but now I just closed it and now it closed well

Safe mode:
codeblocks --safe-mode

[Alpha]

Also, does anything change if you delete the configuration files (located in ~/.codeblocks)?

[Huipil]

I already deleted ./codeblocks and nothing changed, but in safe-mode it worked: i have opened a .c file and then changes prospective and it has closed well, but after reaopening codeblocks normally it didn't close

[Alpha]

If you launch Code::Blocks from terminal, once you close Code::Blocks (and it hangs in memory), what messages are left in the terminal window?

@Anyone: Ideas? ... I seem to be getting nowhere.

[Huipil]

I have just unistalled everything from synaptic, I reinstalled codeblocks and now I decided to install also the package codeblocks-contrib with updated plugins.
I have opened codeblocks from terminal and I just did nothing and it has closed well, after that i reopened codeblocks from terminal and I open a .c file with it and compiled it, after that I've closed codeblocks and now it still opened: these are the last few lines from terminal:

and it stays on the last line.

I understood that the problem is concerned to editor maybe, because codeblocks doesn't close only when I open a .c file: Infact I made another try from terminal and I had this:

Code

I hope it will help to solve my problem, thanks

edit: same thing in --safemode

edit: same thing in --safemode

Did you use --safemode or --safe-mode (note the hyphen) ?

[Huipil]

sorry you are right, now I used the right command "codeblocks --safe-mode" and if I open a .c file this time it works and closes well. So what is the problem?

Try to start C::B normal and disable the codecompletion-plugin from "Plugins -> Manage plugins".
If it is not the cc-plugin, you can disable all plugins and enable the one by one until you find which one causes the issue.

In any cases you can attach the *.c file (if possible), that leads to the issue

[Huipil]

any *.c file causes the problem, even if I create a new .c file, btw I will try as you said thanks

Even if it is empty ?

[Huipil]

yes even if it's empty, But you are great because it worked just disabling the codecompletion-plugin. I don't think I need it so that's great thank you

[Jenna]

Which version of C::B do you use ?

[Huipil]

the last from ppa: 12.11
