Description
IBM Bug Proxy
2003-10-10 19:26:48 UTC
Pretty much positive this is a miniChinput bug; I put some debug statements in and what GTK+ is sending to the input method looks fine. And once you get miniChinput in the stuck state, the problem exists for other processes as well ... even if GTK+ was buggy, it shouldn't be able to cause such a problem. (Just because it doesn't happen with other apps doesn't mean it isn't a miniChinput bug ... GTK+ uses different parts of the XIM protocol than many other apps.) It seems a bug in XIM key event synchronization part, key events are cached not getting thru. Using Dynamic Event flow model in IM server itself will fix the problem. The new package is here: http://people.redhat.com/yshao/miniChinput/ or Red Hat Rawhide. miniChinput-0.0.3-52.i386.rpm ------ Additional Comments From felipe_heidrich.com 2003-31-10 12:11 ------- does the status FIXEDAWAITINGTEST mean that the Submitter has to verify (test) the fix ? ------ Additional Comments From khoa.com 2003-25-11 22:27 ------- Yes, the bug submitter needs to verify the fix. Thanks. ------ Additional Comments From felipe_heidrich.com 2003-26-11 11:32 ------- I verify that the original bug report in here is fixed. But I can't say miniChinput is working 100% with Eclipse, it's not hard to get in situations where it stops working but I don't have a concrete test cases to reproduce the problem. I tracked this down to Xlib bugs. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to get write that up and propose fixes. I'll try to do that soon. Look at this pr: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=57408 My last comment has steps how to cause a failure situation. I've tested this with GTK 2.4 and the latest miniChinput (from fedora: 0.0.3-53) and bug still happens. You just need to open the IM in a textentry and tab to a second textentry. This causes the input method to stop working. This is critical IMO. ----- Additional Comments From felipe_heidrich.com 2004-04-22 15:42 ------- See bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=57408#c7 For new steps on how to reproduce the bug. Sorry for the late reply, could anyone have a look of miniChinput-0.0.3-56 which has just been built, it should fix the problem, thanks. Where is miniChinput-0.0.3-56 available for download ? Sorry, you can download from here http://people.redhat.com/yshao/miniChinput/ Or you can download it from Red Hat Rawhide which is available from many mirror sites. Hi Felipe, Does the miniChinput-0.0.3-56 works for you? Cheers, Lawrence ----- Additional Comments From felipe_heidrich.com 2004-09-10 12:13 ------- Well, it does fix this one bug I mentioned. But miniChinput is far from been stable, yesterday I was testing Eclipse 3.0.1 RC2 on Chinese and I had to restart minichinput several times... We are now in the transition phase to move away from Input Method such as miniChinput which utilise the legacy X Input Method (XIM) architecture. You may like to try out the new Simplified Chinese Input Method by downloading the im-sdk and iiimf-le-chinput packages from the Red Hat Rawhide. There is also a later version of miniChinput now available: miniChinput-0.0.3-58. Hope this help. Resolving this bug for now. Please reopen this bug if the problem for miniChinput still persist. For bugs related to iiimf-le-chinput, please file a New bug if it is not reported. Thanks. changed:
