Fwd: Request to apply patch for bug #108664 in gnopernicus


We have the attached patch for bug #108664 in gnopernicus. This patch used
to adapt the changes made in at-spi to work a feature which is very
important for gnopernicus. 
Without this feature in gnopernicus can not be activate some feature on 
Solaris and in java applications.
This bug blocks a number of gnopernicus bugs and has been tested by the 
gnopernicus and the at-spi team.

Problem description:
Under Solaris and with java application the numpad keys are not working. This 
patch is a workaround to solve this.

Permission to apply is requested.

OK, (1 of a necessary 2 approvals), with the usual "please be careful".
Thank you for testing the patches thoroughly.

	#108664 is a pretty huge bug to read. Please try and help us make a
decision by giving us the following information:

 * What does this patch fix and what are the consequences to the user
   if this patch doesn't get in ?

 * In a nutshell what does the patch do ?

 * How well tested is this patch ?

 * In your estimation how much risk is there that this patch, will
   cause serious regressions/bugs in other areas ?

Thanks,
Mark.

Re: Request to apply patch for bug #108664

This patch suppresses window:deactivate and window:activate event pairs 
and a focus event notification which occur when using the numeric keypad 
in gnopernicus to issue command to gnopernicus.

Gnopernicus requests that at-spi-registryd process listen for certain 
key strokes. This requires that at-spi-registryd call XGrabKey, unless 
XEVIE extension is available, which is currently only on Solaris.When 
the listened for keystrokes occur FocusOut and FocusIn X events. These 
cause window:deactivate and window:activate to be generated. The 
at-spi-registryd prevents these events being notofied to a listener, 
i.e. gnopernicus.

Essentially, it makes using the numeric keypad in gnopernicus, a key 
part of its functionality usable.

The patch has been thoroughly tested by the Baum development team.

I do not think that there is any risk of regressions or bugs in other areas.

multiple registryd running ?

Bonjour,
I'm a at-spi & java-bridge CVS user. I can back from holidays and I 
noticed some strange errors in my at-spi using code.
Sometimes, my logging app. does not "see" another application. If I 
relaunche the taget  application (eog or abiword for instance) it 
sometimes is ok.
Investigating, I see that multiple at-spi-registryd are running !
I am launching two X servers (one for at-spi testing, the other to do 
other stuff that I do not want to lose if at-spi steals any mouse & 
keyboard input). I would expect 2 at-spi-registryd, but I sometime 
see many more ( five are running right now).

Re: multiple registryd running ?

Bernard,

There should not be multiple copies of at-spi-registryd.

The call to bonobo_activation_activate_from_id() in 
spi_atk_bridge_get_registry in at-spi/atk-bridge/bridge.c should cause 
the at-spi-registryd process to be started if it not already running.

The bonobo-activation-server process should deal with requests to start 
the process. If there is a problem it is probably in that process but as 
I have not have to analyse a problem such as this I cannot be certain.

That's what I thought.
It is true even if I have two X servers at once ?

I may investigate this. Could you tell me the prefered way to deal 
with a seemingly "malfunctionning" registryd ?
 bonobo-slay
or killall at-spi-registryd &&rm -rf /tmp/orbit-username 
or something else ?

Thanks for your help,
Bernard
