HI.

I have seen this 3 times now.

When editing the source, PHPed suddenly frezes., and after a few minutes the program gets terminated.

It dislpayes an Error : Out of memory
I guess there is a memory leak.

I have been unable to discover a pattern yet.

Ok. It is consistent now.

I have created a class

class bExceptionBackendDev extends Exception {} in a file bExceptions.php

This file is included in another PHP file, and in that I have this code.

if (!property_exists($dataSource,$fieldName))
throw new bExceptio..

The code complete kicks in and displayes a list of classes and I select the bExceptionBackendDev class

The code then changes to

if (!property_exists($dataSource,$fieldName))
throw new bExceptionBackendDev::

I then try to change the :: to (), but the second I hit a cursor key, PHPed starts to eat memory, and frezes.

I have added spl.php to the code insight in order to get PHPed to be able to code complete to work on core PHP classes, and I thought that it was messing code completion up and giving the memory leak, I then removed that, but the situation was the same.

There is a memory leak with auto completion.

FOUND THE PROBLEM.

IT was me.

I was tired yesteday and wrote

class bExceptionBackendDev extends bExceptionBackendDev {}

In stead of :

class bExceptionBackendDev extends Exception {}

That send autocompleteion into a indef. loop.

My mistake..

This is actually an argument for the code analyze (the compile feature) because that tool could find such a situation and warn you if a class extends itself.
