------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Aug 22 06:46:50 -0700 2005 ------- AB> I'm sorry to hear that you had to rewrite a module. np :-) I have reported this only for completeness, not for complaining. Anyway, IMHO the problem I reported it was not a regression and not a bug, only a new (useful) feature with some side effects: But let me better explain the thing: The package I'm speaking is "Basic Macro Recorder" , a simple macro recorder for Calc, fully implemented in Basic and based on listeners. Somewhere between 1.0 and 1.1 you've introduced the "recursivity", that is the ability of a function or sub to call itself. A side effect of this ability is that a listener can execute an event routine before the previous execution has finished. In opposition, before the introduction of recursivity, if a listener did the call before the previous one had finished, the call was simply lost. In other words, now you can have 2 or more copies of the same routine running at the same time. This is not a problem except in case the event handler routine has to deal with global data. In this case you may have typical problems of thread-programming (race conditions, global data inconsistencies, etc.) Once I had recognized the problem, I solved implementing something near to a semaphore. It was not so easy, but it was very enjoying an instructive :-) best regards Paolo --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
