Subject: JDEE customize crashes XEmacs
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
I can reliably crash XEmacs 21.5.6. I use JDEE, the Java Development
Environment for Emacs (see http://jdee.sunsite.dk/). When editing a
JAVA file, if I use the JDE pull-down menus and do JDE -> Project ->
Options -> General, XEmacs crashes with a segmentation fault. I am
running
Red Hat Linux 7.2
xemacs-21.5.6
jde-2.2.9beta9.1
semantic-1.4beta14
speedbar-0.14beta2
eieio-0.17beta4
Just before the it crashes, the message buffer displays "Creating
group members...", then "Creating magic...".
I realize that you probably don't want to install JDEE just to track
down this bug. I would be happy to do what I can to supply more
information, if you can suggest something. Can I turn on some kind of
debug or trace mode?
please send a C and Lisp backtrace. the Lisp backtrace was outputted to stderr.
＠node Q2.1.1, Q2.1.2, Q2.0.15, Installation
＠unnumberedsec 2.1: Trouble Shooting
＠unnumberedsubsec Q2.1.1: Help! XEmacs just crashed on me!
First of all, don't panic. Whenever XEmacs crashes, it tries extremely
hard to auto-save all of your files before dying. (The main time that
this will not happen is if the machine physically lost power or if you
killed the XEmacs process using ＠code{kill -9}). The next time you try
to edit those files, you will be informed that a more recent auto-save
file exists. You can use ＠kbd{M-x recover-file} to retrieve the
auto-saved version of the file.
You can use the command ＠kbd{M-x recover-session} after a crash to pick
up where you left off.
Now, XEmacs is not perfect, and there may occasionally be times, or
particular sequences of actions, that cause it to crash. If you can
come up with a reproducible way of doing this (or even if you have a
pretty good memory of exactly what you were doing at the time), the
maintainers would be very interested in knowing about it. Post a
message to comp.emacs.xemacs or send mail to ＠email{crashes＠(a)xemacs.org}.
Please note that the ＠samp{crashes} address is exclusively for crash
reports.
If at all possible, include a stack backtrace of the core dump that was
produced. This shows where exactly things went wrong, and makes it much
easier to diagnose problems. To do this, you need to locate the core
file (it's called ＠file{core}, and is usually sitting in the directory
that you started XEmacs from, or your home directory if that other
directory was not writable). Then, go to that directory and execute a
command like:
＠example
gdb `which xemacs` core
＠end example
and then issue the command ＠samp{where} to get the stack backtrace. You
might have to use ＠code{dbx} or some similar debugger in place of
＠code{gdb}. If you don't have any such debugger available, complain to
your system administrator.
It's possible that a core file didn't get produced, in which case you're
out of luck. Go complain to your system administrator and tell him not
to disable core files by default. Also see ＠ref{Q2.1.15}, for tips and
techniques for dealing with a debugger.
When making a problem report make sure that:
＠enumerate
＠item
Report ＠strong{all} of the information output by XEmacs during the
crash.
＠item
You mention what O/S & Hardware you are running XEmacs on.
＠item
What version of XEmacs you are running.
＠item
What build options you are using.
＠item
If the problem is related to graphics, we will also need to know what
version of the X Window System you are running, and what window manager
you are using.
＠item
If the problem happened on a tty, please include the terminal type.
＠end enumerate
I just upgraded XEmacs from 21.4.5 to 21.5.6. I didn't have
this
problem under 21.4.5.
I posted to the JDE mailing list, and the main JDEE dude suggested
that it's specific to XEmacs, especially because it worked in XEmacs
21.4.5.
