Any progress on this? If the bug fix takes long, we may need to implement differently. We are using guest property to launch guest applications from host, however this bug prevents it working once vm is saved to states (vm is hibernated). Seems there are some states related are not saved or recovered correctly. Huihong

You can test it easily on windows XP guest. (I use Vista/Windows 7 host). (1) on guest: vboxcontrol guestproperty wait myprop then close vm saving state start vm, and (2) on host: vboxmanage guestproperty set myprop 123 You will note that vm waiting process never returns. - Huihong --- On Wed, 5/6/09, Michael Thayer <[email protected]> wrote: From: Michael Thayer <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [vbox-dev] VbglR3GuestPropWait() not working well after hibernation To: "Huihong Luo" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 3:27 AM Hello Huihong, Huihong Luo wrote: > I am developing an addin inside windows XP guest, the addin uses > VbglR3GuestPropWait() to wait for some property to arrive from host. > If the vm is hibernated, it does not seem to alway work.
