Open file does not work (C-x f ) #31

Open cneira opened 7 years ago

cneira commented 7 years ago

Hi,

When trying to open a file a list of completions is shown on the minibuffer but when trying to choose one, the following message appears :

switch-to-prev-buffer: Window #<window 17 on ECB Methods> is dedicated to buffer Completions [3 times]

This is a showstopper.

I'm using emacs 25 and ECB from git.

Bests

I've gone ahead and turned off completion auto help, (setq completion-auto-help nil) , when using ecb with emacs 25.1, so that I don't get stuck in the minibuffer.

I'm not sure what's causing the issue, besides completion and ecb handling buffers, but this is my workaround for now.

I am seeing a similar issue with completions in the mini-buffer:

Error during redisplay: (eval (car (ecb-mode-line-make-modeline-str (format " W-%d" (1- (ecb-window-in-window-list-number (ecb-canonical-windows-list)))) ecb-mode-line-win-nr-face))) signaled (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil) [3 times]

I'm running emacs 25.2.2 under Ubuntu 17.10

That error message appears to be from line 311 of ecb-mode-line.el

Setting ecb-mode-line-display-window-number to nil disabled the call above, but the breakage in the completion buffer was the same, so I don't think that is related.

was there a solution to this? I still see this issue with 25.3.1

Fails also with doing M-x describe-variable and typing ecb and 2 tabs...
