Dear all,
I use gvim 7.4 on Windows 7. I have quite a lot of plugins installed.
I have recently (in the last few months) been experiencing reasonably
frequent crashes while browsing code. The crashes are unpredictable
(sometimes I'm not even touching the keyboard or mouse when they
happen; sometimes gvim isn't even the active window - e.g. I'm
browsing the web at the time). However, the unpredictability is making
it very difficult for me to diagnose what is causing the issue -
sometimes I can use gvim for several hours without any problems; other
times it will crash within a few minutes.
The message I get when it crashes is:
Vi Improved - A Text Editor has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will
close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
The first thing I tried when I started having this problem was to go
back to an earlier revision of my vimfiles folder (I keep it under
Mercurial version control) from before it started crashing. This made
no difference. I also tried going through the most recent 10 or so
plugins that I'd installed and turning them off one by one and using
vim for a while - in all cases I eventually managed to make it crash.
I've tried gvim -u NONE -U NONE and didn't experience a crash, but
given that the crashes are so inconsistent in their timing, I cannot
be absolutely sure in my assumption that the crash is due to a plugin.
I was using a self-compiled version of gvim, but have since tried a
newly compiled version from a more recent revision and also a stock
version downloaded from vim.org - all show the same problem. In
desperation, I compiled a debug build so that I could try to see what
was happening at the point of failure, but I haven't managed to make
that version crash yet...
I realise I'm not giving much in the way of useful information here,
but I was hoping someone might be able to suggest an approach that
might help me narrow down what is causing the issue.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
