#580 Crash with invalid resource Identifier

[Li Minggang]

CB would crash if invalid Id string was pasted in the Identifier field, eg, the xml string of the resource from the Copy/Cut operation of CB.

Not sure if the bug was introduced by the space or specail chars in the string, eg <, >.

Please post the exact steps needed to reproduce the problem.

I met the problem several times. The crash happened while I tried to copy the ID string from clipboard but the content of the clipboard is a xml string of a control---I forgot to copy the string.

However, I failed to reproduce it just now. Will try more.

Is it possible to add the crash dumper of wxWidgets, ie, wxStackWalker into CodeBlocks and save the crash information when crash happened----OnFatalException?

[Teodor Petrov]

Yes, we already do this. Not sure what is your os...

Can you describe more in detail what you are doing? I do not understand what is going on here:
1) open codeblocks
2) Create wxWidgets project wit wxSmith
3) Open the wxSmith editor
4) Add Button
5) ...

I could not reproduce it with latest nightly which means it might be fixed but I'm not sure. The crash happened while I pasting some garbage string to the ID input of the resource editor.
I found the spaces of the string was removed in latest nightly. Not sure if it's the fix.

The OP could not reproduce on the nightly, and no update in four years.
