According to the remark in InvokeInputMethodFunction we shouldn’t use async calls like PostMessage() if Drag’n’Drop operation is active. If I got it right in problem case we entered to Drag’nDrop operation right after we started waiting on the InputMethod event object in InvokeInputMethodFunction. I suspect some lack of synchronisation takes place. Perhaps we need to drop and reschedule the InputMethod events that are in progress before we enter Drag’n’Drop.

A thread gets stuck on WaitForSingleObject at awt_Toolkit.cpp#L3139 (in AwtToolkit::InvokeInputMethodFunction) waiting for an object to be signaled, but the signalling gets lost. And so it waits indefinitely. dmarkov, do you know more? A possible solution would be to change the timeout to be 1000ms, but that may have unintended effects.

It starts to escalate since the only workaround is to restart the app right now. The problem is already reported with JDK-8305479 [1] Is there any way to increase the priority of that issue or is a developer here we can hire to search for a fix (and create a pull request)? Btw, the bug is much easier to reproduce: 1) Start the demo app (see [1]) 2) try to drop a document (eg: pdf file) from the windows desktop into the textfield Repeat step 2 if necessary. For me after 1-2 try this will cause the hang. If not, move the JFrame to another position and repeat step 2 again.
