Oh, sorry to hear about that. :-/ I wasn't aware... > - We could also have conditional compile for TB only.

Sorry to have pushed back, I know that it sucks to receive pushback from a reviewer when they don't really know what better solution to offer and they're effectively telling you "please spend more time to come up with something else!", so I really appreciate you considering my argument here. > Yes, the waiting bit is going to be hard, since you're saying that I should wait somewhere in IMAP land for some strings to arrive while being called synchronously from the permission manager while creating an imap: URI. I can't see how that would work. Waiting for asynchronous stuff when something is called synchronously is indeed hard, but it can sometimes be achieved with some care if you know something about what it is that you're waiting for and what triggers it to happen. The way to do that is usually through setting up a nested event loop to process incoming events to your thread (in this case the main thread) until the condition you're waiting for (e.g. the strings becoming available) has been met. We have the `mozilla::SpinEventLoopUntil()` helper function for dealing with these nested event loops, with many examples around the code base. It looks like you're going on a different path now (which I admit I don't fully understand!) but I thought I'd mention this in case it proves useful anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1847772 Title: E-mail folder names are not localized in thunderbird 68 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1847772/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
