problems with filemanager plugin

[frithjofh]

Never mind my first post...

My changes only meant that Wait() was effectively never called... so not a fix at all. Sang victory too soon  :

I will keep investigating, though.

Sorry again

Did you try my patch?

[dmoore]

Since no word from OP, and i don't have a system to reproduce, does anyone else? Killerbot, i think I recall that you had this problem on some linux variant. Could you try my patch and see if it makes a difference.  (No rush)

[killerbot]

ok, will look into it. Let's hope we can still reproduce, cause in the meantime OS upgrades occurred ...

Cheers,

oops... wxMutex::LockTimeout isn't in wx2.8.12. Try this patch instead.

(Does nothing on windows)

This problem is still alive, and it is even worse now, I can not disable the filemanager plugin, the spinner keeps on spinning on the manage plugins dialog.

I tried :  filemanagershutdown2.patch   ==> doesn't make any difference

[dmoore]

Thanks for trying. Wonder if this is due to some sort of pipe buffering.

What distro is it? Maybe i can try a live cd, VM or something.

hmm... soon I should be able to replace my buggy code with this: http://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/classwx_file_system_watcher.html (wx2.9+ only unfortunately)

opensuse, seen it on  12.2 / 12.3 and 13.1 (64 bit)
