Q: Editor Crash in Xcode 5.1.1

1. Highlight text in Xcode editor

2. Right click mouse button to get menu

3. Xcode vanishes in a puff of smoke ...

4. 100% reproducible

 

Apologies if this is already well documented -- I didn't see it.

    Are you trying to ask for help in the forum or to file a bug?  The format you have used looks like you meant to Report a Bug.

    Thanks for the response.

     

    My goal posting here was to share this information. Seems like quite a large bug to slip thru and indicates (to me) a larger problem in apple testing, hence more general interest.

     

    I've also filed a bug. Thanks for the link.

     

    I'm a noop here so sincere apologies if I made a mistake

     

    Thanks

    You'll be fine and thanks for sharing, but forum posts are not bug reports. See   Bug Reports: What Devs Need To Know

    You didn;t see it because it is not a problem with Xcode but with your setup Do you honestly think a sequence like you described, if it was a bug, would not be plastered all over the place?

     

    If you want to try and fix it you can start by describing your system and OS versions, what other development tools are installed and when the problem started/

     

    Then log in as different user in a clean new account, the guest user works well for this and try the same key strokes there. Report back the results.
