CodeLite IDE

Win32 MingW32 CodeLite9.1.2
1. Open CodeLite, create any project;
2. editor the project, input something like #incoude <std
3. then the wxCodeCompletionBox comes out
4. keep this wxCodeCompletionBox showing, and just select other program(process) in windows, say, Chrome
5. turn back to the CodeLite, it crash

Its a bug in wxWidgets.
Just build CodeLite in release mode (mainly: build wxWidgets in Release mode)

Hi, Eran
I just change a little in our CodeLite's source code, in wxCodeCompletionBoxManager#DestroyCCBox():
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
if(m_box) {
if(m_box->IsShown()) {
m_box->Hide();
}
m_box->Destroy(); // /////----> change this to " m_box->Close() "
}
m_box = NULL;
m_stc = NULL;
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This crash disappear, I have no idea about the effect by this change.
What do you think about this "patch" ?

Does it create a memory leak?
I am not sure if "Close" calls "Destroy" eventually...

Hi, Eranif
I debugged this Close interface, it seems not do the real destroy work, thus, Close may cause memory leak.
I found another way to fix this problem:
in CodeLite's source code wxCodeCompletionBoxManager.cpp
///////////////////begin////////////////////////////////////////////
void wxCodeCompletionBoxManager::OnAppActivate(wxActivateEvent& event)
{
event.Skip();
DestroyCCBox(); // --> change this line into "CallAfter(&wxCodeCompletionBox::DoDestroy);"
}
///////////////////end/////////////////////////////////////////////
then, the crash disappear, and seems it will do the real destroy work;
how about this updating for the "patch" ?

Looks good to me.
