[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Null time on debug messages (Issue #3071)

[Robert Di Pardo]

When I try to reproduce, it's the debug message _window_ that has no timestamps; strangely, the log output looks fine in the terminal:

~~~
Geany-INFO: 08:01:37.403: Geany 1.39 (git >= 32977676), unknown
Geany-INFO: 08:01:37.403: GTK 3.24.5, GLib 2.58.3
Geany-INFO: 08:01:37.403: OS: Linux
~~~

I built from source with `-g -O0` and debugged, without learning the cause, but `g_date_time_format()` is definitely assigning a null pointer to `time_string` before returning from `utils_get_current_time_string()`:

Trying to inspect the `time_string` pointer before it becomes `0x0` raises an error about an invalid address:

![time_string_invalid_address](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/59004801/147473414-27138aaa-ec17-4903-a65b-7246911421fe.png)

Not sure if that points to memory corruption or just the debugger complaining about stripped symbols.
