Hello. I'm a maintainer of im-sdk distributed by OpenI18N.org, and I received a report that Mozilla with macromedia flashplayer crashes if it using XIM facility.
According to my investigation, it is a critical bug of ximcp.so. Potentially, this problem might occur on any XIM application when _XimProtoOpenIM() fails because, in this case, ximcp does not clear the registered filter. I've submitted this problem to http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618 I think the following report is helpful as well. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191547 As I wrote in the report, the following patch fixes this bug: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Index: imDefIm.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/xc/lib/X11/imDefIm.c,v retrieving revision 1.9 diff -c -r1.9 imDefIm.c *** imDefIm.c 2001/10/28 03:32:34 1.9 --- imDefIm.c 2003/08/22 05:23:14 *************** *** 2074,2079 **** --- 2074,2080 ---- _XimRegisterServerFilter(im); return True; } + _XimShutdown(im); #ifdef XIM_CONNECTABLE } else if (IS_DELAYBINDABLE(im)) { if (_XimDelayModeSetAttr(im)) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This problem is critical for XIM applications. So I hope this fix will be applied to XFree86 soon.
