Title: CB SV build 8982 on 12.04 lock up problem
Post by: burtbick on May 11, 2013, 04:46:56 pm
I updated to the latest CB as reported in the software updates from Ubuntu 12.04.
Now opening most files is slow and some files just lock CB completely. One file that consistently locks up is smaller than other files that open.
This was NOT a problem with the previous version that was installed. Has anyone else seen this behaviour and if so have you found a way to resolve it?
I have already tried turning off code completion, and setting the character set to avoid auto detection. No joy with getting things working again.
[Update] - With the same source file successfully loaded this time when I brought up the editor configuration dialog CB locked up shortly after the dialog displayed.
[Update 2] - Tried uninstalling and re-installing. In fact there was a new update this morning from the pasgui repository so I was hoping that might correct the issue. I did NOT open the one file that caused issues all the time. I in fact renamed that file to .foo and then did a search in files for a variable name. Got the variable name and a different file (.h this time) was opened showing where the variable was found. After a few seconds CB locked up again. This was again a reinstall of the latest from pasgui.
Thanks, Burt

Since no one else appears to have had this problem I thought I'd add some more information.
I had updated my notebook (also running Ubuntu 12.04) at the same time. CB on the notebook continues to work with no issues. So it appears to be something specific with the update on the desktop Ubuntu 12.04 installation.
So I guess after removing CB again, I'll go on a search and destroy mission to make sure that ALL CB related files have been purged from the system.
Then try a reinstall to see if that fixes the problem.

Can you try to debug C::B with gdb to see, where does it hang?
Code
gdb /usr/bin/codeblocks <reproduce the lock> bt
Probably you'll have to install the dbg or debug package to get the symbols.
