Description Alexander 2012-01-09 22:09:15 UTC 
Version:           git master (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

I'm using KDevelop git master (2012-01-09).

After upgrading to KDE 4.7, KDevelop closes unsaved documents without warning, leaving behind kate swap files in the process.

This may be somehow related to bug #291089.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Open some document, type something, click the close button on the tab.

Actual Results:  
The document is closed, with .kate-swp file left on the disk. When opening the file again, KDevelop offers to recover the changes.

Expected Results:  
A dialog should appear asking whether we want to save the file or not. If the user says no, no .kate-swp file should be left on the disk.

This is a serious bug that can cause loss of data (thankfully kates crash recovery avoids that - but not for new, unsaved files)

To reproduce:
- Open a file in Code Area
- Switch to Debug Area
- Open the same workingset as in Code Area (by clicking the workingset icon in the code tab)
- Switch back to Code Area
- modify file (without saving change)
- close file

Actual Result:
File is closed without asking to save changes.
(as both areas share the same workingset it's also closed in debug area)

Expected Result:
Ask the user if he want's to save changes.


If you create a new file instead of opening kate crash recovery won't work and this will result into data loss!

Pushed by zwabel into branch '1.3'.

Fix a regression in closeView which could cause modified documents to silently disappear without asking the user.
