VERY UNSTABLE linux version but rock solid windows version???

(1/8) > >>

Hi,

I have tried the CB-nightly-build-windows version yesterday and I was VERY impressed. Everything was rock solid, code completion was great, ...

Today I tried the Linux version. And actually I am a Linux user. I fetched sources from SVN. Here a list of bugs I could discover within 5 minutes:

- Just klick wildly on the tabs of the "Mangement"-pane. This switches my cursor to a strange thing and freezes even X completly. The only thing I can do is to switch to a real terminal (with CTRL+ALT+F1) and "killall codeblocks". I guess this is a bug in wx or the docking library but still VERY annoying.

- I still have a a Settings->Plugins' settings menu entry (but no submenus).

- Settings->Evironment crashes CB

- Settings->Editor freezes CB sometimes

- Codecompletion does not work. It seems that it works on a new project. But when you open other projects there won't be any codecompletion.

I hope I can get some help here or help in fixing these things by myself...

All those are known bugs on linux, I've experienced them all in SVN HEAD (including the one that hangs Xorg), except this:

Do you mean that all plugins still loaded ok?
That's weird because SVN HEAD doesn't contain such menu (Settings->Plugins' settings).

Are you sure you didn't mixed RC2 with HEAD (or an older revision)?

EDIT
About this:

To me C::B/Xorg hangs very often in a drag-and-drop mouse state (dragging text, dragging panels, dragging anything).

Der Meister:
Just a little note: I'm using Code::Blocks revision 2234 on Linux (compiled with gcc 3.4.5 and wxGTK 2.6.2 - unicode) with the following active plugins:
- Codestats
- Compiler
- DragScroll
- Debugger

And I have to say: I can't reproduce *any* of the bugs you mentioned (of course, without code-completion I can't reproduce the last one, but the others don't appear, too). And Code::Blocks is rock stable, too.

knue:
- Hmm, I just did a "svn update". I will try a complete new checkout later. Perhaps this problem is solved then. I had older versions of CB installed on my system, too. Perhaps there is sth odd there.

- I use KDE and I have never had some drag 'n drop bugs befor. I guess this is a GTK problem then. BTW: It would be great to see a wxQT port :D

Which GTK and wx versions do you use?
What can I do to vanish CB completely from my hard disk? So I can be sure that I do not have strange rests on my computer. I will then try a reinstall.

Same here but without DragScroll. With CodeCompletion on, I can get the Settings->Editor freeze
