MoviePlugin tests crash
Reported by Christopher Stawarz | June 1st, 2010 @ 03:25 PM | in 0.4.5 (closed)
Since the display blackout bug was fixed, the following MoviePlugin tests have been crashing:
- MovieTests/MovieTestToSlow.xml
- MovieTests/MovieTestWithStopAndRewind.xml
It looks like the crash is due to a timing problem, with the
plugin scheduling a call to
StimulusDisplay::updateDisplay (via the
always-a-bad-idea
StimulusDisplay::asynchronousUpdateDisplay) that gets
executed after
OpenGLContextManager::releaseDisplays.
Since both the base class for dynamic stimuli and OpenGLContextManager are being significantly reworked for 0.4.5, there's probably no reason to bother fixing the current code. However, if this bug starts causing problems for users pre-0.4.5, then it may be worth fixing in a patch release.
