Details

Here's one for vidur: Much of our non-static/global data needs to be partitioned by window, not reachable by other windows except through statics/globals. Therefore we're starting the hunt with statics and globals. Please have a look at the file(s) below to see if we can improve reentrantcy across the code base by making modifications to: dom/src/base/nsJSEnvironment.h: static nsJSEnvironment *sTheEnvironment;
Target Milestone: M3
Unless I missed something, there has been little talk about the threading issue that has included the NGLayout people since the "town hall" type meeting that Brendan lead several weeks ago. The bug database is the wrong place to continue this discussion. Let's have a meeting or discuss this on a mail list so we can do this correctly.
Target Milestone: M3 → M4
RX tasks aren't going to make M3. close the reentrantcy tracking tasks if this specific area has been looked at and doesn't seem to be a problem. Otherwise each of these areas still need some looking at.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Target Milestone: M4 → M5
Target Milestone: M5 → M7
I'd still like to look into this.
Status: ASSIGNED → RESOLVED
Closed: 26 years ago
Resolution: --- → FIXED
Closing this now, since there shouldn't be a problem given the type of reentrancy we envision in 5.0.
