URL: http://gna.org/bugs/?18526 Summary: modpack installer UI hangs during download Project: Freeciv Submitted by: jtn Submitted on: Sat Aug 20 14:02:47 2011 Category: module installer Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Release: 2.3.0 Discussion Lock: Any Operating System: Microsoft Windows Planned Release: ___ Details: While testing out the 2.3.0 Windows binary of the modpack installer with the freesounds modpack, I saw a couple of instances where the user interface stopped updating partway through the download. The download carried on and completed successfully, as could be seen by watching the files appear in the installation directory, but there's no way for the user to tell. Once in this state, trying to close the program brought up a blank window about the size the do you want to quit window should be. Clicking randomly in it did make the program quit, so I guess the buttons were still sensitive, if invisible. This happened at different points in the download each time I saw it. It didn't always happen (I saw it in 2 of 3 trials). ___ File Attachments: --- Date: Sat Aug 20 14:02:47 2011 Name: freeciv-modpack-2.3.0-ui-hang.png Size: 111kB By: jtn UI trouble with freeciv-modpack.exe in 2.3.0 http://gna.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=13935 --- Date: Sat Aug 20 14:02:47 2011 Name: freeciv-modpack-2.3.0-ui-blank.png Size: 107kB By: jtn UI trouble with freeciv-modpack.exe in 2.3.0 http://gna.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=13936 ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18526 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18526 (project freeciv): Without any investigation my first guess would be problem with running download and gtk+ main loop in separate threads. Are the gtk+ widget updates (messagebar, progressbar) from downloader thread properly protected with mutexes (not even sure if gtk+ is supposed to handle it internally, or is it responsibility of the program) TRUNK version of freeciv-modpack seems to be a lot more unstable now than before my latest changes to it, but I assume it to be separate problem affecting TRUNK only. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18526 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
