OS X: segfaulting with homebrew MacVim (vim version 7.4.383) about color_coded HOT 21 CLOSED

ah, it seems to be segfaulting with the shipped one too...

from color_coded.

I haven't tested on OS X in a while. I'll take a look at this today, thank you.

from color_coded.

I have been unable to reproduce any such issues on OS X. Are you certain it's not your environment?

from color_coded.

Will try it again and will report back soon.

from color_coded.

Happening consistently for me after "CursorHold" is triggered.

This is the lldb's backtrace I get from the coredump:

I may have to build a debugging version of Vim do debug this. Will see if there's any change with an updated version.

from color_coded.

meh, I was already with latest macvim from november...

from color_coded.

So, I've cloned the tip of vim from original repositories and tested both a debug and release compilation and there's no such behavior indeed.

So it must be a bug in macvim, or in the specific vim version macvim is currently based upon.

from color_coded.

By the way on OS X I've found this problem with the latest vim sources...

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/vim_dev/WVE9W-j3sK8/2eFXS_r7xR4J

from color_coded.

In the official repository I've checkout the tag that corresponds to the version that's currently bundled with MacVim and there's still no issue. So, it must be a bug in MacVim, or maybe, related to how homebrew builds it.

Notice this is happening with MacVim (vim version 7.4.383) that's available through homebrew, for current version as well as --HEAD installation. This is also a problem because OS X users generally like to take vim/macvim through homebrew instead of cloning and building vim themselves.

I won't be digging this further sorry, I'll stick with official vim for the console.

from color_coded.

No need to apologize, mate. You've done some excellent troubleshooting here and have given me more than enough information to pick up where you left off. Thank you.

from color_coded.

I believe this has been fixed, as part of #10 which was a nasty bug where the system libclang files could be mixed with color_coded. I have tested color_coded on a fresh Yosemite install with non-HEAD macvim from brew and everything is working nicely.

If you get the time to verify, please do. Otherwise, I'll close this in a couple of days.

from color_coded.

I should clarify, the changes are currently on the clang branch, not yet in master.

EDIT: scratch that, this is in master; it's a blocking bug fix and is working for me on Linux and OS X. You should use master.

from color_coded.

I'll check it asap.

from color_coded.

Any update?

from color_coded.

Just tried with a new MacVim installation, seems to be gone.

from color_coded.

Thanks.

Thanks.

\o/ Thank you for all the help.

np!
OT: you're getting lots of stars all of a sudden, did you publish it on HN or something?

from color_coded.

Ah, I did find the link on HN :-)
