Hi,
I've been seeing a very sporadic issue with closing a firefox instance
with firewatir 1.6.7.
I'm running the following code to attach to an existing window and
close it:
require "rubygems"
require "watir"
Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox'
puts('ruby: attaching to browser')
b = Watir::Browser.attach(:title, /.*/);
puts('ruby: closing browser')
b.close
puts('ruby: browser closed')
Rarely, maybe 1 in 15 times this hangs and I don't get the "ruby:
browser closed" line printed to standard out. When I hit CTRL-C I get
the following trace.
C:/Ruby186/lib/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.7/lib/firewatir/
jssh_socket.rb:63:in 'recv': Interrupt

from C:/Ruby186/lib/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.7/lib/firewatir/
firefox.rb:220:in 'close'
from ./Ruby/close.rb:8
I've seen this across a number of Windows 7 systems, all 3.6.*
versions of Firefox, all systems only had one instance fo Firefox open
with one tab open two. Although I say I've seen this happen 1 in 15
times, I've also managed to run 100 tests in a row that do the same
thing and have no problem. This is really starting to annoy me now.
Anyone have any suggestions?
