CodeBlocks stays active in memory after closing GUI

[pat32]

Hello,

I am using OpenSuse 12.2 64bit  and I have installed CodeBlocks 12.11 from the OpenSuse repositories.
When I launch CB, it runs OK. However, when I exit CB and try to launch it again, it does not start anymore.
Checking the active processes confirms that CB still remains in mem. even after I closed the window.

I have tried to start CB from the terminal and I get this (as part of the output):


(codeblocks:5261): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid uninstantiatable type `<invalid>' in cast to `GtkRadioMenuItem'

(codeblocks:5261): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_radio_menu_item_get_group: assertion `GTK_IS_RADIO_MENU_ITEM (radio_menu_item)' failed

Loading toolbar...

On closing the GUI, I get this :


Deinitializing plugins...

Could someone please help me regarding this issue?
Thanks

These are not critical or at least work here correctly.

Can you try to debug codeblocks with gdb for example? To see where does it crashes.

[killerbot]

try this by launching CB from a terminal shell : "codeblocks"
does the problem occur then ?

@oBFusCATed : The thing is that I have not built CB from source and so I can't debug
@killerbot : Yes the problem still happens when I run from the terminal shell. The code I pasted is the output when I do so.

You can install debug-packages (if they exist in the repo you use).

[oBFusCATed]

You can get half useful backtrace even on release builds. But Jens is correct install the debug/dbg packages.

Sorry, correction : I actually downloaded and installed the rpm from the CB website not from the opensuse repo. (I actually have this problem since a few months)
I think maybe in that case I will have to build CB from source. I am a bit puzzled however about why this problem happens.

Hi, pat32, I'm relative new to this forum, therefore this late reply to your post.

I ran into the same problem like you. What I was wondering about was the fact that OpenSuSE was the only Linux OS this issue appeared.
After a long time of searching the web I found out that I had to install that "gamin-server" package for CB to run properly. After doing so everything seems to be OK now.

I'd suggest that you'd give it a try.
Please let me know if this works for you.

the same problem cause me several bluescreens. Fixed by disabling the antivirus. The C::B was not terminated and when shutting down the computer wrongly recognize the c::b process as system process though causing blue screen because the OS was aborting that process for shutting down.

The blue screen is a my specific problem (I'm the only user with that problem XD) but the process not terminated have still to be fixed.

Just to be curious wich antivirus do you have?

I recently built codeblocks 12.11 release 8629 on Slackware and was having the same problem with the same messages showing in the terminal. I found disabling the code completion plugin stopped it from happening.
