Description Oleksandr Senkovych 2015-05-20 08:53:16 UTC

If somewhere in a code there is macro like 
#define item item
and you move your mouse over this item, kdevelop enters infinite loop.
For example this kind of code is present in <stdbool.h> header: 
#define true true
and if it's included into your project, you should be very careful with your mouse for not to point on it:)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. include <cstdbool>
2. Move your mouse over "true" statement
3. Kdevelop hangs

Can you please fill in the fields: "Version Fixed In" and "Latest Commit" so the users can check if their version of kdevelop contains the fix?

I am running 4.7.3 which is still suffering from this bug. I am working on code with a lot of prepocessor macros and this bug forces me to kill kdevelop every few minutes.

I would like to build the fixed kdevelop version from source but I don't know which commit contains the fix.
