History
coudln't figure it out. I've uploaded it here:
Cannot reproduce with the file attached...?!
here is a video of the crash, and also another crash report generated from it.
I've updated to SVN 8461. moved the clib.cbp file to a directory all by itself and renamed the original project directory *just in case* there were some absolute paths listed in the cbp. after I opened the isolated clib.cbp, it is still crashing.
I've discovered the line causing the issue. on the line
<Option compiler="gnu_gcc_compiler_462" />
if I change "gnu_gcc_compiler_462" to "gcc" it does NOT crash. I've also tried "gnu_gcc_compiler_461" since my version of gcc is 4.6.1 as reported by `gcc -v`, but that crashes also.
Well you are not supposed to edit this file manually. If you do, crashes are expected.
I am closing this bug therefore.
I *didn't* edit the file. It was crashing from a stock *.cbp file generated by codeblocks 10.05. It was only *after* I first edited the file that it stopped crashing.
More than that, this is a crash bug. Which means there is something like a null deference, or a dangling pointer deference, or a buffer overflow, or something else nasty. And you call that Invalid?
