[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 83282] Linux version of LibreOffice locks open documents in a way incompatible with MS Word running on Wine
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83282 Vincent Povirk madewokh...@gmail.com changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |NOTOURBUG --- Comment #9 from Vincent Povirk madewokh...@gmail.com --- I did the test using NFS and Samba. Word can tell immediately that the file is open in LibreOffice, and I cannot figure out how. If I lock the entire file for writing, using fcntl, I get the same result. If I lock the entire file for writing using LockFileEx (it does not provide a way to lock the entire file), Word detects this after a few seconds. I cannot figure out how it's possible to tell the difference between this and fcntl using the Windows API. I hate that I don't understand that difference, but even in the worst case scenario (given what LO is doing) we should only hang for a few seconds. So I'm going to say it's a Wine bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83282 --- Comment #10 from Vincent Povirk madewokh...@gmail.com --- Sorry, in my tests I was locking the first 2**63-1 bytes, so that I could compare directly with LockFileEx which doesn't seem to be able to lock the entire file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83282 --- Comment #8 from Vincent Povirk madewokh...@gmail.com --- Created attachment 113841 -- https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=113841action=edit test program that prints currently-open range locks on a file I wrote a quick test program (attached) to check what range locks are open on a file. For a .doc file opened by Word 2013 on real Windows through samba (version 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u5), it shows me this: write lock start 2147483539 len 1 write lock start 2147483559 len 1 write lock start 2147483599 len 1 For a .doc file opened locally in Libreoffice writer, it shows this: write lock start 0 len 0 This is roughly what I expected. For completeness, I also tried the 'flock' command, and it succeeded in taking an exclusive lock in both cases. I still have to do a test opening the same file with both, which requires setting up NFS to the server running samba. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Yep, that was my understanding :-) Sounds like we're pretty confident about this issue, so Status - NEW. I'll also update the Summary to make things clearer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
