Comment (by arthuredelstein): Replying to [comment:8 neillm]: > This patch has been applied to tor-browser-52.2.0esr-7.0-1-build1 and tested on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS. Thanks -- I built with the patch and it worked as described. But the `aContext` argument of `nsTransferable::Init()` appears to have only one purpose, which is to check for PBM state. So I wonder if you think it would make sense to change the signature to `nsTransferable::Init(bool isPrivateBrowsingMode)`? Then perhaps the callers could be modified to provide PBM state, assuming they have that information: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla- central/search?q=%2Bcallers%3A%22nsTransferable%3A%3AInit%28nsILoadContext+%2A%29%22 (I'm not sure if this is a practical idea or not, so feel free to disagree.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21830#comment:12> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
