Bitcoin client hangs when copying text #2463

Right after I press control+c or right click and copy, whether in the client itself or in google chrome, the program will hang but not displayed as "not responding" in task manager. It can be closed normally by right clicking it on task bar and close it. The interface is not responding at all. It may be related to utorrent toolbar or utorrent, as i only noticed this problem after installation of those application. Version 0.8.1 beta Bitcoin-Qt OS Windows 7 Ultimate

It is related to Sketchbook pro. When the program is open doing so will cause client to hang

It also happens when you press ctrl+c many times.

Can you please be more detailed, which OS and which client version are you using (Bitcoin-Qt and not bitcoind I suppose)? Where are you pressing ctrl+c, which tab is open and in which field is your mouse cursor?

I'm sorry, OS is Windows 7 Ultimate, Bitcoin-Qt, it hangs no matter which tab is open.

Which Bitcoin-Qt version? And you mean just pressing ctrl+c, no matter what is selected? Is the client window focused (active) during that?

I have tried to replicate the issue when the cursor is in the send coin address field, send coin amount field and the main tab

0.8.1 beta. No matter what is selected, even there is nothing selected it will also hang after about 6 presses

Also even if the selected item is in google chrome it hangs also. that means when i copied the item(e.g. mtgox payment address) and then look at the client, it hangs.(the client window is not active)

And it hanged again after about 16 presses of ctrl+c. without selecting anything.

I'm sorry, I can't replicate this issue, I'm on Win7 x64 SP1 here with official 0.8.1... even only pressing ctrl+c doesn't hang the client. There has to be some problem with your system. Perhaps related to another running program!? Can you try to boot into Windows safe-mode and try again there (press F8 while your PC is booting and chose the safe-mode)?

ummm try it with google chrome and utorrent open?

cos it just hanged again

How exactly I produce this issue: Google Chrome running, utorrent running, bitcoin client running on top of those two, at main tab, press ctrl+c repeatedly. It hangs.

I have no Google Chrome and no utorrent and I won't install them for testing this, sorry ;). IMHO this is not a Bitcoin-Qt issue, perhaps a Qt issue, perhaps how these 3 programs interact with the clipboard, dunno.

Might be. Qt creator just somehow crashed after copying some error message from compiler output =.=

Did you build Bitcoin-Qt for yourself via Qt Creator? What Qt version are you using?

I downloaded the pre-built version, and i'm just playing with Qt-Creator for fun...But since you asked, the Qt version is 5.0.1.

What the... http://puu.sh/2wgNc and the paste button and hot key is not working if i don't close the program.(i.e. it doesn't paste anything, but right after you close it it will paste). It happened after I have clicked copy address right after creating a new one. Is it some kind of timing problem?(thread or something)

I've never seen this behavior or heard about it from anyone else. I'm afraid that this is a problem with the specific configuration of your system. It is impossible for us to debug that for you.
