------- Additional comments from mux2...@openoffice.org Thu Dec 17 10:32:28 +0000 2009 ------- The following does not work reliably { swriter "macro:ddddd" & } ; swriter foo.odt Sometimes nothing happens (i.e. foo.odt is not opened). If I introduce a sleep between the 2 calls like this { swriter "macro:ddddd" & } ; sleep 2 ; swriter foo.odt it works all the time. There seems to be a race condition in OOo's start code that causes the first command to prevent the execution of the second when the second is started while the 1st has not yet finished running. I can reproduce this under Linux and Windows XP (with Cygwin). Note that while this testcase may seem contrived we found this in a real world environment. It happens when one or several 3rd party applications launch OOo processes in rapid succession. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
