the problem looks really, really strange... Util.waitForIdle() is
implemented exactly the same way: as a call to realSync() - while you
wrote that calling waitForIdle() didn't help.
Please, postpone your fix (don't integrate into AWT gate repository) and
check if Util.waitForIdle() does the job. realSync() is a low-level and
private Sun's API, so I'd prefer having it in a single place (in Util)
so we can change it easily, if necessary (e.g. when realSync() becomes
public).
Yes, you are right, Util.waitForIdle() simply calls realSync(). It is
interesting - without this sync (waifForIdle/realSync, does not matter
which I use) this test always fails on my machine (i.e. it does not
selects all lines of TextArea), with sync included it fails "only" in
circa 1/10 of its run. At this time, I don't plan to push this patch as
it isn't 100% correct.
Thanks,
Artem
This patch can be applied to OpenJDK7 too.
