Last modified: 2008-01-15 14:09:05 UTC
Please describe the problem: as above Steps to reproduce: 1. Make plugin crash. Actual results: I can't close current image window. Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Can't replicate with HEAD. I don't know how to crash any plugins at the moment, so I tried killing one, and it didn't happen. More information, please?

The bug you are refering to is not reproducible either. You also did not specify required information such as your operating system.
WindowsXP SP2
This might be a problem with the implementation of transient windows in the Win32 port of GTK+. The plug-in window is transient for the image window. Perhaps GDK gets confused if the plug-in window is destroyed by a crashing plug-in.
ptk, please tell us what happens if you try to close the image window. You only said that you can't close the window. I assume that there is some extraterrestrial mental force that keeps you from closing it, right?
Close button doesn't work.
ptk, what is up with you? Are you not able to write a full sentence? You expect us to respond to your bug reports, don't you? Is it asked too much to write more than five words?
I mean that close button at the right upper corner doesn't work. I'm of course able to close image using File > Close. Minimize and Miximize works too.
That seems to indicate that this problem is related to the window manager, or more precisely to the interaction of the toolkit with the window manager. We should probably reassign this to GTK+ then but it would help a lot if we could construct a small test case for this problem.
Also, when the original reporter says "plugin crashes", does this mean he actually sees something that indicates it has terminated unexpectedly, like an error window displayed by Windows? Is the plugin process visible in Task Manager any longer?
HM, this should have been NEEDINFO. ptk, please have a look at the questions in comment #11.
Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for. Thanks!
