Crashes

Prerequisites

• Can you reproduce the problem with Debug -> Reload Without Extensions?
• Did you perform a cursory search to see if your bug or enhancement is already reported?
• Did you read the Troubleshooting guide?

Description

Brackets crashes when I save a file and go to my browser and refresh the page that uses that file. Some sort of addon may be triggering this bug, but let's not forget that addons must NEVER be able to crash Brackets as hard as it does.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a web project with multiple files including some javascript
2. Edit a javascript file and save.
3. Go to the browser and hit refresh.

It's literally that. Hit refresh in the browser, and Brackets will crash. Just like that.

Expected behavior: No crash, just work.

Actual behavior: Crash. As in, "Brackets stopped working" dialog from Windows.

Versions

Windows 10, Brackets 1.10

Please note, this problem didn't exist in 1.10-prerelease. That should probably hint to where the problem is.

I was having crashing like you described and found that it was the Todo extension (mikaeljorhult/brackets-todo#143). It did not like outside forces updating a file within the project scope. If your page load does any kind of logging, that may be the issue.

Even if it is, Brackets shouldn't crash on it.

It's probably the Todo extension.

But without it, Brackets still crashes from time to time, under identical circumstances.

I also just got the crash when searching with Ctrl+Shift+F 😕
And find&replace with Ctrl+Shift+H also causes a crash. Argh!

Okay, with Ctrl+Shift+H it's actually 100% reproducible. So I'm going back to 1.10-prerelease-2 where this issue didn't exist. Please fix this very very soon - noone wants an unstable code editor and potentially loose work at semi-random times.

I think you (devs) have got some reverting to do 🙂

I have the exact same problem with or without all extensions disabled. I did not notice it in version version 1.10, but I use that feature sop rarely that it may have not come up..

Tried uninstalling 1.11 and reinstalled 1.10 without extensions. Same issue. NOTE: I can Search in Project but Replace in project causes crashes.

Installed 1.9 and tried it with extensions: Works fine. So it looks like it crept in version 1.10
