Java application can crash unity-window-decorator (compiz-decorator)

[Bruno LIENARD]

Binary package hint: unity

Java application like jasper iReport which use GTK as graphical back-end can cause the unity-window-decorator crash when the user use the "filechooser" window in a "sub modal window" like following.

Steps to reproduce :
- Launch iReport (4.0.2)
- Create a report
- Click on the jrxml file tab, right-click and choose "edit query"
- Click on "load" than click cancel than click OK.
- Unity-window-decorator crashed

See video in attachment.

I believe that it can be the same in other Java Application but I don't test it.

This can be reproductible also with Oracle SQL Developer.

duplicate bug #727143?

[Bruno LIENARD (bruno-it-optics)]

Almost the same, but in this case, the window-decorator crash only when a system selector is used (like FileChooser). But I suppose that if the 727143 is solved, it must be solve this problem.

could you try with the current version and see if that was fixed with the fix for the other bug pointed before?

Following step to reproduce after apt-get update / apt-get upgrade on ubuntu 11.04 (watch out that I installed Thunderbird 5 using ppa), the bug is not reproduced anymore.
