Details

Xprint module currently has problems with printing multiple times because information from Xserver (Xprt) is cached somewhere in Mozilla which is invalid after XCloseDisplay()... This usually causes random crashes and tons of X errors. Solution: Purge any cached information (font XIDs etc.) from Mozilla after/before closing the connection to Xprt. Current list of things ToDo to get rid of this issue: - DeviceContextImpl::FlushFontCache(); // in nsDeviceContextXp::SetSpec() - resetting global vars in nsFontMetricsXP.cpp - deleting old nsXPrintContexts objects and create new, clean nsXPrintContexts - set any Display/Screen/XPContext reference to NULL/nsnull - ... !?
