How do you find out if a bug has been fixed?

[Mickey Segal]

I am not familiar with the underlying details of the JRE.  Does this mean there is something an application programmer can set as a workaround, or does that mean that there is something that folks at Oracle can change to make a future JRE build not suffer from this problem?

 

I appreciate the attention to fixing this problem.  It reminds me of the time I mentioned a crash bug to Scott McNealy, who passed it on to the engineers, who later told me that this was something that was a big enough problem that they chose it as the first change to make in JRE 7.

I trace down this bug and found that part of the issue is in the CAlayer implementation. The reason is simple: setNeedsDisplay is not followed by the drawInGLContext.

The problem is not reproduced if i set layer.asynchronous from FALSE to YES.
