Monodevelop crashes whith GTK# projects

[Mockly Guillaume]

Version: Gutsy

I found that Monodevelop crashes each time I try to open a file editable via the GUI editor or a project that contains one of such files.
This is may be a bug in a library used by Monodevelop rather than Monodevelop itself as the same problem appears with a version compiled from sources.
However, I managed to create a GTK# project using my compiled version (0.16) and it still crashes when I open it.

I can vouch for this. I have tried to create a GTK# project on several occasions over the past months. Using several versions of monodevelop, both repository pachages and source builds.

Monodevelop works just fine, right until I attempt to use any form of GTK# project.
I have been trying it over and over again, to see if there is a pattern and II am now fairly certain that the crash occurs when I try to Save any changes in a solution/project that contains GTK# code and references.

In simple terms, just hitting ctrl-s will cause the crash in almost all situations for me.
I have included the error output in the attachment.

Same problem here.
to reproduce:
-start empry gtk# project
add a menubar and 1 menu-item, save, crash.

That's exactly it. Stetic reliably crashes on save when there's a single menu item present in the GUI. If you leave the menu items out it seems to be okay, at least for my current project which is lots of VPaned, HPaned, TextViews, TreeViews and so on. It also crashes on save if you define any actions independently of the menu.

Seen on Gutsy with 0.14. I've been planning to manually compile the latest release in the hope it would be more stable.

Same problem.
Try to save after adding a menu bar to a VBox, and Monodevelop will crash. I thought the bug was related with the video driver (openchrome ) I had installed in my Desktop (there are some known bugs related to mono, gtk#, f-spot and P4M800-like VIA unichrome chipset), but it happens even if you use Monodevlop from Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD (which uses a vesa driver by default).

This bug is occuring with me too. It's crashing every time I save after doing anything with the menuitem widget.

MonoDevelop 2.0
Ubuntu Jaunty 64bit

Can you please retest with a supported Ubuntu version? Thank you!
