CodeBlocks 16.01 crashes randomly on Linux Mint

(1/2) > >>

Hyena:
I just lost 30 minutes of my work because CodeBlocks randomly crashed. It was not the first time, but it sure was the first time it seriously pissed me off.
I have deliberately disabled automated backups because it seems as if those caused the crashes more often. So my work is lost. I cannot use an IDE
that can do this, it's one of the first priorites of any IDE to guarantee that work is not lost. That said, I'm running CodeBlocks 16.01 on Linux Mint 18.1 Serena.

Attached is a screenshot of my plugins. When it crashes, it doesn't even show me any error message, but today when it crashed it first deleted some spaces
in front of my code lines so I could assume there's a memory corruption bug somewhere there.

Hopefully we can get this fixed soon so I don't have to change an IDE, because I really like CodeBlocks.

edit: one more thing, when it crashed I actually had the program itself running (started from codeblocks). The program remained running even after codeblocks had closed (if it tells you anything)

What happens if you try to use one of the latest night builds or even the 17.xx rc1?
There where several stability fixes made for ubuntu (probably they affect mint, too).

BlueHazzard:
i would not disable auto save because of this reason ;)
But also, do you never compiled until the crash? because every time you compile it should save the source files.

I have enabled autosaving again. And I didn't compile. Hopefully we get that stability release soon then.

Have you tried a nightly as obfuscated asked? They have really improved stability A LOT over the time
