Qt Creator Bugs - lot of bugs
-
Apparantly, it come from Qt5, because using QtCreator from the stand alone packages fix all those bugs: no more crash now!
-
Qt Creator 2.6.1 from the "Qt libraries 5.0.0 for Linux 32-bit (411 MB)" package crashes every 10-30 minutes (sometimes even more frequently). The OS is Ubuntu 12.04 (32 bit, of course).
Crashes occur usually on autocompletion (when the corresponding menu pops up). There are also some random crashes when entering text or just navigating.
I have to save the files opened every single minute to prevent loss of changes. Absolutely not usable.
P.S.: Will now try to install the standalone version of Qt Creator. -
DarkAngel: It is really stable for me. Do you have backtraces so that we can track this issue down?
-
Well, the application just freezes. I've launched it from the terminal to see the debug output, but there's nothing sensible:

Those few debug messages appeared when I opened a project. About 10-15 minutes later Qt Creator window just freezed. It didn't respond anymore:
!http://rghost.ru/43023227/image.png(screenshot 2)!
(Window "application.h - <...>" is not responding. Forced application termination will cause all unsaved data loss.)
P.S.: The standalone version of Qt Creator works fine. I 've beed using it for more than 15 hous and have not noticed any problem.
P.P.S.: Is there a way to post clickable previews of the pictures? -
Could you try to attach a debugger to the frozen application and get a backtrace from it?
-
Do you mean something like Valgrind? I'm not very common with debugging tools, cause just reading standard debug messages from the command line was always enough for me.
Please, just say what tools exactly should I use. -
No, I mean a debugger like gdb. They can attach to already running applications.
-
OK, here are the gdb log and the screenshot:

Can you pause the execution when creator freezes and get a backtrace, please? http://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace has some instructions on how to get one.
-
OK, I'll try to do this later (maybe tomorrow).
-
DarkAngel: Thanks for your help and patience. It is appreciated!
-
It took a bit longer to get a freeze this time, but finally here's the log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2s2hx9fu7nf8n6o/gdb.txt
When the application freezed, I pressed Ctrl+C and then entered the "bt" command. When the new messages stopped appearing, I quitted using the "quit" command. -
DarkAngel: Good news, AFAIK that one is going to be fixed in 5.0.1:-)
-
Well, until then we may just use the standalone version of Qt Creator, which is free from the issue.
Anyway, thanks for your help.
