Hi,

Any news on bug 29281 ?

http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=28281

I can add the following extra info:

if compilation fails, it quite often never detects this and fails to show the compiler error. I need to do a recompile, "abort" the previous build, and then it sometimes shows the actual error.

Also, I get a 100% failure rate when I press ctrl-F9 when the project inspector is the active dialog.

I wonder why it happens only on your platform. Perhaps it is only triggered by specific stdout/stderr content length and error IDs. This would explain, why a recompile works, where the output is shorter than a full compile.

Also, I get a 100% failure rate when I press ctrl-F9 when the project inspector is the active dialog.

I have no idea, how the project inspector could influence the external tools. I hope it is not some memory corruption.

I can reproduce it on 2 machines. One a desktop, one a laptop. Both run the same Kubuntu version, have more or less the same configuration.

Since my report is marked as related to/duplicate of another, it's not just me that has this...

Maybe the problem is keyboard (keyup/keydown/onkey events) related. Keydown caught in project inspector, transferred to mainform (or wherever) for processing, keyup caught somewhere else, command again executed. Something like that.

It doesn't happen when I select the compile item from the run menu. That would support this theory.

Anyway, I will test tonight with your new define.
We'll see where this gets us. Thanks for looking into this.

Uploaded a file.

I had it now during compilation of the IDE itself: it was just stuck.

Looking at the log file, the thread ends normally, which seems to indicate that the notification of the end of compilation is somehow not registered ?
