[Qt-creator] some bugs in QtCreator snapshot nov. 18

[Winfried Dobbe]

QtCreator SnapShot version:
   Built on Nov 18 2008 at 12:48:17
   Using revision f0c788c03c2a72754c1068c78e05e3c39b6e0265
   OS:  OS X 10.5


Some bugs (all reproducable) in the snapshot version:
- crash: In the editor move the cursor over a Qt class and press F1.  
The help window appears on the right side of the GUI. Now set the  
cursor in an empty line. At first the help window displays "No context  
help available" but after two or three seconds QtCreator crashes.  
Reproducable for me.

- In project mode, "build settings tab", when I alternately check the  
debug and release check boxes two or three times, the active  
configuration is stuck on one of the two. Subsequent clicking on the  
other check box has no effect anymore. Build menu -> set active  
configuration still works ok.

- I set some breakpoints in my code. I stop the debugger and remove  
the breakpoints by clicking on them. Then I start the debugger again.  
Magically the breakpoints re-appear.

- After working some time, double clicking on a filename in the  
"project" sidebar doesn't open the file anymore in the editor window.  
Right clicking on the filename and then "open file" still works. This  
is reproducable, but I don't know what is the exact action that  
triggers this state.



Some things to consider:
- Please, please make an option to automatically save changed source  
files when clicking "run",  "debug" or "build". Now I have to click  
"ok" everytime in the "save changes" dialog.



A less important feature request:
- Project mode "Run settings tab": the working directory should be  
always an edit box i.s.o. a fixed label. It's a bit strange to create  
a "custom executable" configuration just because you want the working  
directory somewhere else. Especially on the mac, usually I don't want  
the working directory to be "xxxx.app/Contents/MacOS".
