Hi
I encountered a strange behaviour of geany under Windows. Geany seems to need Administrative Privileges under Windows, otherwise it will coredump when opening a file. Has anybody else expierienced this problem as well?
Do you have a NTFS filesystem and perhaps not the sufficient read permissions on this file? Even in this case Geany should not crash but it is not tested under Windows yet(I have a FAT32 filesystem).
I do have NTFS and was thinking of permission problems, too. This is how things went: I had a user tit with group Administrators I installed mingw, gtk+ and geany under this user and all worked well I took the admin privileges off the user and geany started to crash. But the files I tried to edit belong to the user tit. I could edit the file with write and save it, too I granted Administrator privilege to the user again and geany stopped to crash.
Interesting. I will make a little NTFS partition on my Windows box to test this, but this will take some time. Probably there is something wrong with the checking of file permissions under Windows.
It might as well have to to with the gtk+ libraries. I use the ones suggested on the geany home page.
I don't think this is GTK related.
