RE: [CEDET-devel] ECB/Semantic method buffer bug report

[Oviedo, J. <jo...@te...>]

I turned on debug-on-error, but no backtrace was produced. I verified with a
"C-h v debug-on-error" that the value was set to true.

I have been grep'ing through semantic files and in the process the problem
is reproducing itself. I notice that it seems to happen periodically
coinciding with the following output from the *Message* buffer: (I had
semantic-imenu.el open)


Building semantic-edit.el Semantic directory index imenu [2 times]
Fontifying semantic-format.el... (regexps................)
Building semantic-imenu.el Semantic directory index imenu [2 times]
Building semantic-edit.el Semantic directory index imenu [2 times]


I had semantic-imenu.el open for some time, with the method buffer
displaying properly. Then all of a sudden it began "Building" the files
shown above. This has just happened to me while parsing several different
files....but the disappearnce of the methods seems to coincide with some
periodic "Building <insert-file-name-here> Semantic directory index imenu"
output in the *Message* buffer. 

Do these "Building ..." messages mean that the method buffer is being
rebuilt and displayed, even though it is already showing the buffers? My
data points seem kind of scattered, but the common theme seems to be some
sort of parsing/reparsing being done by semantic.

I'd like to put a "debug-on-entry" on a function, but I'm not sure where to
even begin. I will continue investigating. If anyone has any thoughts,
please chime in. Thanks.

As a first step further you could do:

1. Activate debug-on-error
2. Reproduce the bug
3. send us the backtrace
