    Hi,

    Since I've updated my Qt Creator installation to v4.9 (or 4.10, doesn't matter), it started to parse .pro files randomly results in jumpy General Messages window in the middle of literally anything. Mostly happens when I made a change in a source file (*.cpp, *.hpp) but not always.

    In the previous versions of Qt Creator .pro file parser was only running when I made a change and save the .pro file but now it seems like this feature is broken for a reason.

    Any ideas? Am I missing a setting of the IDE?

    Thanks.

        @canavaroski On which file system is your project located? Network drives can cause problems.

            Do you know any method to figure out why .pro file parser has run? Any debug method or sth like that?

              @canavaroski Did you check the date/time of the pro file? Is it correct?

                Can you please elaborate a bit more on what you mean by date/time? Are you asking about the date file created?

                  Hi
                  The time stamp on the file.
                  https://linuxize.com/post/linux-touch-command/

                  stat xx.pro

                  If its somehow in the future compared to the system clock
                  such an effect can be seen.

                  I had had it due to creating a project and then later update the system clock.

                      Hi,

                      I checked it, but unfortunately it seems the timestamp is correct.

                      File: ../myapp.pro
                        Size: 580       	Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096   regular file
                      Device: 803h/2051d	Inode: 19152996    Links: 1
                      Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--)  Uid: ( 1000/   user)   Gid: ( 1000/   user)
                      Access: 2019-10-30 23:00:58.707612705 +0300
                      Modify: 2019-10-30 23:00:58.707612705 +0300
                      Change: 2019-10-30 23:00:58.707612705 +0300
                       Birth: 2019-10-30 23:00:58.707612705 +0300
                      
                      

                      But what weird is, should the birth date be static? why is it also updated?

                      Should I put a watchdog on this file to see if anyone is accessing it?

                        @canavaroski Which file system type is that?

                        But what weird is, should the birth date be static? why is it also updated?

                        I think so.

                        Regards

                        Qt has to stay free or it will die.
