When I try to search for text within the solution or a number of files using monodevelop it takes forever, infact I'm pretty sure the thing hangs as I've never seen a single result. Is this feature supposed to work (in v2.4.2)?? Its worth noting I get a an error when hitting 'tip of the day' too whic would indicate that my monodevelop isnt working as it should be. How can update monodevelop or fix these problems? Many thanks

Hi guys, same problem for me with the find in files feature (whatever the find/scope/file mask I choose): it runs forever and eventually freezes/crashes the editor :( As a result, it will never show me any result at all and most of the time I'll have to interrupt + restart the editor...

For what it's worth, last time I tried to use the 'find in files' feature in MonoDevelop, it locked up. I haven't tried it since though (or since the 3.3. update, although I don't know if that included any changes to MonoDevelop). Since I upgraede Unity to 3.3 its now even worse! Everytime you double click on an error in the Unity console monoscript opens (as it should) but now it seems to reset all its preferences so you have to set everything back to how you like it again (windows layouts etc). For everything that monodevelop seems to give me to speed up development (than using a text editor), it makes something else much slower.

Any progress on this problem? I'm using the MonoDevelop version 2.4.2, the one that came with Unity 3.3.0f4, and I have this same problem. It appears that they fixed this bug in a recent beta build http://monodevelop.com/Download/Release_Notes/Release_Notes_for_MonoDevelop_2.6_Beta_2 Does anyone know if the Beta version still integrates with Unity?

Hey, I was having that same problem on specific searches (for instance class names of my solution). I'm pretty sure the problem came from the fact that MonoDevelop sees all my serialized XML files in the Assets Folders. I have a bunch of very large XML files who may contain hundreds of occurences of certain words. This led me to add a File Mask in the Find In Files dialog. That way MonoDevelop only searches the .js or .cs files of the solutions. Fixed all my crash triggering keyword searches so far !

Also, if a do a search within direoctories for something like 'pragma#' I get 0 search results even when clearly I have about 20 occurances of the word within the files.
I am not a user of monodevelop but I feel your frustration. While it may offer little help, perhaps monodevelop support plugins that work around this problem? By the way, isn't it #pragma, not pragma#?
pragma# yeah..I searched for that too :) Monodevelop is rubbish, unless I've missed something..?
Could you please rename this question to something like "Can I prevent MonoDevelop's 'Find in Files' from crashing?". Because it has nothing to do with being slow - MonoDevelop either crashes or freezes indefinitely.
No problem. Done ;)
