Occasional Code::Blocks hangs
« on: August 29, 2017, 05:41:32 pm »
Hi,

I use Code::Blocks on Ubuntu from the following Launchpad link:

https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks

Occasionally when I have a C project opened, when I open some IDE's window, Code::Blocks hangs. I "End Process" using "System Monitor". Can you fix the hangs ?

Can you try to disable the symbol browser:
Settings->Editor->Code Completion->Symbol browser->Disable symbol browser

BTW: What version of ubuntu and what version of wxWidgets (you can find the wxWidgets version in the Help->About window of codeblocks)?

Nope if we don't have more information.
"occasional hang" doesn't provide enough information.
Please gather backtraces or exact steps to reproduce the problems.

Symbol browser is inactive(shown gray).

I did the steps mentioned in Generation in the provided link. When codeblocks was started, Without opening any project, I opened Help->About window, which was opened correctly. After that, Closing previous window, I opened Setting->Compiler Which caused a hang, displaying only a basic window rather than full Compiler window.

Here is the contents of gdb-codeblocks.txt as attachment as I got this error message in sending it inside the post :

You're hitting this issue: https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/524/

You can post here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/codeblocks/+bug/1675807 to bring this to the attention of the ubuntu devs.
If you use a night build (the current one) or one of the next it should be fixed there.
