Hi all

Just got Geany to crash. I had a project open that I was working on for a few hours. Wanted to switch so chose Projects > Close. Here's the gdb output:

(gdb) run

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I'll keep it running via gdb and see if I can get it to do it again.

Cheers

Hi Lex

No worries. I'll do that and post what I find.

Frank, I'll have a go with GDB too and see what I can get out of it.

Cheers

Hi Ronan,

Can you run Geany from a terminal with the --verbose option and see if
there are any messages before it crashes.

Also can you run for a couple of days always closing the open project
then opening the new one and see if it still crashes and if so if it
is in the close or open steps.

We need your help to narrow the problem down because I am running 0.18
and 0.19 on x86-64 and have no trouble swapping projects, but I am
using C, C++, Python so the diff may be the language specific parts.

Cheers
Lex
