Project file that refuses to open

SUMMARY

Frequently when KDevelop shuts down improperly the project file cannot be
reopened.  Manually opening the project file also does not work.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start up KDevelop
2. Set up a project
3. kill KDevelop
4. Restart KDevelop

OBSERVED RESULT
KDevelop says it cannot open the project and it needs to be recreated from scratch.

EXPECTED RESULT
KDevelop should be able to re-open the project.

Working project file

The project file works, not that I must not put it into the .kdev4 directory or it never sees the parent. I must put it in the parent directory.
Comment 2 Aaron Williams 2019-12-28 03:30:53 UTC
One additional note is that when I restore things, I need to put the project file in the parent directory, NOT the .kdev4 directory. If I try and open a project file in the .kdev4 directory it thinks that is the root directory. (another regression bug).

I also see this problem on three separate machines.

I am using the U-Boot source tree with a cross-compiler if that helps.
