GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 109393
Accessible_getParent returns wrong value for a child of a tree
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
For java apps, if Accessible_getParent is called for an object which is a child of a tree, or a child of a child of a tree and so, always same object will be returned, the tree, not the real parent. steps to reproduce: 1. start Java SwingSet app 2. Open JTreee demo (last toggle button from toolbar). 3. Navigate in the tree and ask for parent for every focus: event received. Also if the tree hierarchy is traversed, children which has never shown to user (nodes which was never visible) have role unknown and no name. After expanding their parent, name and role are available. (this can be seen with at-poke).
Updating status_whiteboard field to reflect A11Y team's assessment of accessibility impact.
Woops, don't need to track this one with the status_whiteboard field.
bumping up prio.
Java bug 4839971 has been logged to get this fixed. The problem is in the JAA and it's not possible to fix in the JABG. Closing as NOT GNOME.
