[BUG] org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay no effect

[Andreas Leha]

Hi all,

Today I found out the hard way, that org-edit-src-auto-save-idle-delay
does not have any effect for me any more.  I'd say this is a serious
regression.

I have tested with emacs -Q.

My system:
- GNU Emacs 24.4.50.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.3.0, NS appkit-1265.21 Version 10.9.4 (Build 13E28)) of 2014-09-02
- Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-1174-g9651ee)

Regards,
Andreas

Turned out I have not tested properly.  Things work with emacs -Q.  So
it is my configuration.  I'll investigate.  And sorry for the noise!

Hi all,

Here is now a more accurate but still vague bug description.

All my tests now show that (at least) in a fresh emacs session the
auto-saving still works -- also repeatedly.

But in longer running emacs sessions things stop working: I edit the
source buffer and wait but now auto-save will happen.  This is bad as
with a longer running emacs the risk of crashing increases together with
the risk of now auto-saves.

I have no clue what triggers this.  How can I debug this?  I guess the
timer is not working any more.

Thanks,
Andreas

How awesome is this?!?  I was asking for help on how to write a better
bug report and I get a 'fixed in ...' as an answer.  Amazing.

Thank you very much.  I'll carefully watch my src-edit buffers...

Andreas
