One always might have trouble when one uses the latest beta image and CI built VM.
No need to warn about this.
Nonetheless:
============
Using #50586 image with the "living on the edge" Spur VM (
http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo-spur32/win/PharoVM-Spur32-win-latest.ziplast built 17.02.2016 18:53) there is a reproducable case when one opens the browser and selects a method in a class browser and then
another method of the same class. This crashes the VM.
Using the latest "stable" Spur VM it will work:
http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo-spur32/win/stable-20160203.zipUse that VM version until issue #17541 is solved. Keep on reporting - but please next time stay away from hijacking non-related threads
and give more details:
In the world menu there is "System" -> "System Reporter". In this reporter the "Image" as well as the "VM General"
is already selected. With this you can find out and report exactly the VM/image combination that you used.
You should provide this in future bug reports.
For other "Non-Pharo VM crashing" bugs it is enough to report just the image version (which can be easily seen
also in World menu "System" -> "About".
Also it makes more sense to report such findings to the developer list (who usually work on latest and greatest).
