CompWindowId crash + test case: Compiz crashes while opening matplotlib plot window

[Ben Gamari]

Binary package hint: compiz

Running the attached python script causes compiz to crash in CompWindow::id() with this==0x0. Backtrace attached.

Thanks ben for you test case :)

We got a lot of CompWindow::id crash, this one has a testcase, hence the fact I don't dup to existing one. Adding to the priority list

Thanks Ben indeed. However, I was almost disappointed not to see my compiz crash when launching the test app. Is there something specific to do to make it crash? It doesn't crash on startup, nor on exit here with 1:0.9.4git20110322-0ubuntu6+r2723+201

Can you confirm it crashes with this revision, or alternatively, detail the version you're using and which the test case "works" with? Thanks

I can reproduce this in my machine.

After upgrading to 0.9.4git20110322-0ubuntu6+r2723+201103301010 I can confirm that this is fixed.

Thanks for the feedback Ben

[David Barth (dbarth)]

Good news. Thanks for the quick feedback, And just in case, we'll keep the test case for regression testing.

Thanks!
