Subject: [PATCH] qt4: Fix QT4 applications spamming "QWSLock::down(): Invalid argument"
Date: Tue,  6 Jan 2015 11:34:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420540468-9062-1-git-send-email-mike.looijmans@topic.nl> (raw)

If you run a QT server application, and a client in a separate process, it will
spam the log with "QWSLock::down(): Invalid argument" messages because of an old
bug in the locking code. There's a patch on the net that fixes it, which I manually
adapted by removing the commented-out debug statements.

We have been using this patch for about half a year without problems, and the QT people
apparently don't care about the bug, hence there's no upstream status. Including this
into OE core will at least save other people the trouble of having to find and apply
it for themselves.
