Description joachim.lingner 2008-01-21 15:34:33 UTC

The fix for issue 85290 brought up another threading issue in the bootstrap
variable code in rtl. I installed the test extensions from
desktop/test/deployment/update/publisher and ran the extension update. About 30
-50% of the updates failed.

The reason is, that the code in sal/rtl/source/macro.cxx is not thread safe. 
The code was reimplemented for issue 84200 which will go into 3.0. Because the
reimplementation bears a higher risk of regression, I will only remove a little
code which causes the problem. Then in 3.0 we will have the better solution.

jl->jsk: Just to make sure, please verify that the installation of the extension
updates works properly. The problem was visible on Windows. When running the
update, the description box contained error messages indicating something like
"*** recursion detected***".

I used the test extensions in desktop/test/deployment/update/publisher.
