I often rebuild my plugin to test it and replace old version of library with just compiled library object. But Geany crashes after that in first touch.
Steps to reproduce:
- Copy autoclose.so into ~/.config/geany/plugins
- Open Geany
- Copy autoclose.so into ~/.config/geany/plugins again
- Focus on Geany
- You're gonna the crash!
Note you *shouldn't* even re-compile plugin or something.
This is a backtrace: https://gist.github.com/scriptum/657dd4057c8de2d86fb1
As you see, a crash comes from my plugin. I don't check variables against NULL and I'm doint it intentionally assuming that Geany never sends NULL in events. But actually it crashes at static variable access: if (!ac_info->jump_on_tab) return;
Here strace report, not very interesting: https://gist.github.com/scriptum/e24388dd676e5717bb42

Well, here is an answer:

Possible solution - rm, then cp (in this case library will not be replaced until new instance of editor will be started).
