We just need to cancel the other thinkfinger thread once we have received a password. And that code was just buggy. I do think that cancelling the thread with pthread_cancel(tid) should really be safe, even if the app uses threads already for other things. Only the targeted thread should really be impacted by a pthread_cancel. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
