> Bug Description ---------------------------

If one of the source files contains an incomplete C++ source 
and the C++ scaner is activated (opening of the project for 
example) KDevelop may end up in an infinite loop. Restarting
KDevelop doesn't help, only writing corrnct C++ code in the 
respective file.

You probably have an algorithmic error in the parsing code.

> How to repeat the error -------------------

For example in one of my files I had the following at the end 
of XClusView.cpp file:

void XClusView::represent(bool flag, char*

in this moment the autosave+reparse were activated and 
KDevelop ended up in an infinite loop.

> Bugfix or Workaround ----------------------

Workarround:

Edit with something else the file that hase incorect C++ code
and restart KDevelop.
