Comment #24 on issue 4219 by mpcompl...@chromium.org: Gears not detected http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4219
I've finally managed to track this down. I'm checking a fix into trunk soon. Here's the issue. We have 2 initialization steps for gears: CPAPI, then NPAPI. If CPAPI initialization is not complete when we initialize NPAPI, it fails. Generally this is not a problem, but during our CPAPI initialization, we were sending some synchronous IPC messages to the browser. Sometimes, while waiting for the response, the renderer would poke some NPAPI method, causing NPAPI to be initialized before CPAPI was done. In these cases, gears would fail to load, and we'd end up with the unrecognized gears case. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
