[vtkusers] Xlib async error

[Serge Egelman]

I'm using a hacked version of the cvs vtkPanel class.  It's the same, except I added dynamic rendering support (a timer is created and it calls this.Render when it receives an ActionEvent from that timer).  I'm sure that the source of the problem is calling Render on two separate windows at the same time.  However, one should be able to do this.  The problem seems to be in the implementation of Render() (either in how the java VM makes the X calls, or in vtk itself).  I'm just wondering if anyone has come up with a workaround for this.


Thanks,

serge

I've recently begun getting the dreaded: "Xlib: unexpected async reply", and started looking up information on this error.  I cam across the following message: http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/vtkusers/2002-January/009318.html
