Crash when removing module

The Projucer
1

The current IntroJucer crashes when trying to remove a module. It is sometimes possible to remove modules but I can’t say under which circumstances it works or crashes.

This is the crash log I get in VS2012 (moduleId.text is 0xfeeefeee):

Is that definitely the latest version? I fixed a bug just like that a few days ago..

I just tried again with the GitHub zip download and it still occurs.

One other minor thing I noticed: When removing all exporters and then adding one again, the modules don’t know the juce location any more but use “…/…/juce” instead.

Seems fine for me - anything in particular that replicates it??

And yes, it doesn't store a global location for the modules, each one just stores a path in its metadata, so if you remove them all it has no idea where they used to be. It's not wrong, that's just how it all works. But when I get a moment, I'll see if I can add a hack to e.g. make it re-use the last known path if it has nothing better to use.

Very strange. This only seems to happen when the IntroJucer is started from Visual Studio.

I have a project that always crashes when juce_data_structures is removed (didn’t try any other modules to keep consistency) when started from the debugger, but I didn’t get it to crash when I start it normally or even attach the debugger later.

The crash also happens with the release version when started from VS while it is fine otherwise.

Damn, that was a subtle one! Thanks, I managed to track it down.
