           Summary: many files open - kdevelop gets into endless loop on GUI
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.0.2
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel kdevelop org

Version:           3.0.2 (using KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-99-default

Many files are open. (Childframe window mode KDevelop GUI)
The filename titles almost fill the topmost toolbar.
When I open an additional file which file name is so long that it wouldn't fit into the topmost toolbar, kdevelop gets into endless loop on GUI.
(The entire screen is flickering as if it wouldn't be able to decide what to show...)
The only way after then to kill the kdevelop process.
It's a very annoying bug which exists at least from kdevelop 3.0 beta.

Workaround: I have to care about not to keep to much files open (mainly with long filenames). Unfortunately, I forget this rule very often...

Always and easily reproducable.

NOTE: I always open a file with 1 click in the file browser.
