Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33) OS: Linux I've seen this twice where kwrite crashes when hitting undo and then redo (where the redo is the last possible redo). This one is especially nasty as I tend to do this just before saving to remind myself what changes I made. Hopefully the backtrace is helpful, as I cannot provide the file this was happening with, nor does it happen every time.

Yes, this one is a very urgent bug. The current solution still does not always set the cursor correctly. Would really be goot to have a fix for 4.1, at least for the crashes.
Agree, this is something that needs to be fixed asap, I hoped someone else was interested in debugging it...?
I guess people might be looking in my direction, but to be honest, I can't think that I've been bit by this in a while. Not sure about the cursor, but maybe the crashing got fixed somewhere along the line?
no, it has nothing to do with your commits. It's about trying to make undo/redo always set the cursor position correct. But I don't see a solution right now. At least a fix to not make it crash should be committed, I'll try to look into this, hm...
Can you try the attached patch please? Changes include - the undo cursor and undo selection are saved with the first KateDocument::editStart() - the redo cursor and redo selection are saved with the last KateDocument::editEnd() For this to work, the following parts needed to be fixed - wrap doDeleteWordLeft/Right with editStart() and editEnd(), otherwise wordLeft() and wordRight() change the cursor position - drag & drop: while moving the cursor position is changed. To make it work, we need to fix the cursor position before we really do the drop operation. The undo selection is only set in the case of a move, otherwise it does not make sense (it feels really strange) Please test the patch, as it should go into KDE 4.1 if it works. Right now, the KDE 4.1 branch crashes sometimes when doing undo/redo. Thanks! -Dominik Created an attachment (id=26084) kate-undo-redo-fix.patch
I could apply it, but I'm not able to reproduce the crash reliably (actually, haven't seen it for a while), so I can't really tell you if it works :-). Any pointers how to tickle the bug?
I used to reproduce it with inserting several lines, select all, join lines, type text, undo, undo, undo, redo, ... play around with it, ... and then at some point: crash :) This patch is of course about fixing the crash. But it's even more about getting the cursor position right for undo, for redo. and also for selection. for copy&paste, etc... if it works good enough (i.e. no crash and sane positions, it should be committed).
For me it was paste text on one line so the cursor is at the end of the line, then undo the paste, cursor stays -> crash.
Ok, I can reliably produce a crash (same assert, but different bt) as follows (based on Dominik's method): - open my .bashrc (probably any file ~30-100 lines will do) - paste a few lines somewhere - select all, join - type a few things randomly (this step may be unnecessary) - undo to on-disk state, i.e. as much as possible - redo x2 -> BANG! I'll try to test the patch tomorrow.
(yes, the mail on kwrite-devel is about this bug http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.kwrite/16946)
In that case I'll repost here for the record: with the patch, the procedure in comment #9 no longer results in a crash.

I'm pretty sure I've fixed that for KDE 4.2. Please update as soon as possible to confirm this. Thanks.
Close as fixed as the main problem in comment #1 doesn't appear anymore. If there is still a similar crash, please open a new report.
