Description Philip Van Hoof 2011-08-09 13:07:45 UTC 
Whenever I save a .vala file, Anjuta crashes. This is today's Debian testing release, 3.0.3.0.

This is making Anjuta unusable for many projects in GNOME, since many have started using Vala.

Temporary fix, but I think that the plugin should probably just be fixed, of course:

# mv /usr/lib/anjuta/anjuta-vala.plugin /root/
# mv /usr/lib/anjuta/libanjuta-language-vala.so /root/
#

Oh Juerg (I know you'll be reading this bug too ;), hehe) the .vala file that I had open was our very own tracker-sparql-query.vala, I changed any line and used ctrl+c in Anjuta 3.0.3.0 (Debian testing).

Description: C# like language for the GObject system - library
 Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming
 language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional
 runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to
 applications and libraries written in C.
 .
 This library contains the parser used by valac. It can be used for
 building tools arround Vala.

ps. I'd be ok with reassigning this to the Vala project. I'll first let it pass through the hands of the Anjuta team for first-line investigation.

I think: could be related with bug 651151 ?

Very possible, same end function (vala_data_type_compatible). If it's unclear and hard to reproduce I could try installing the dbg packages and get the line number. Let me know if that's necessary.

Philip, can you check if this is fixed with vala master (see bug 655726). Thanks!

Meh, I'm going to wait for new packages in Debian testing. Is that OK too? I'm fine with keeping the bug open for now. With the plugin manually removed, and I don't really need the language support for now, I can deal with the problem for the time being.

Let me know at which point, which version (of libvala or anjuta), the bug is supposed to be fixed.

Btw. feel free to mark this as a duplicate of Bug 655736

FWIW, I've also attached a patch to bug 638525. Your crash may also be related.
