Too many Whiteboards opening

[drme...@gmail.com]

I seem to be having whiteboards opening for sessions that are no
longer active.

I have one for a user that we used earlier that keeps popping up in
its previous state. One for a conference I started and left. Another
for a conference I started and left. One for a Yahoo user via gateway
that IM'ed me earlier.

As I IM users, the number of whiteboards opening seems to increase and
increase when I try to open one.

Using 0.0.3.

This is a REALLY nice sparkplug.. Just have this nuisance.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. We'll try to duplicate it and figure out the
problem. Larry

I've also noticed this happening with the Shared Editor too..

I think this is new for 2.55. I've been using it in 2.54 and don't remember
getting all these popups when I open a whiteboard or Editor.

I'm even now getting Editors (and the Whiteboard) popping up when I share a
Whiteboard, and vice versa.

Restarting Spark doesn't seem to fix it, but rebooting did.

Thanks, Danny. I've been out of town for a few days. I'll try to figure it out Thursday or Friday.

Hi Danny,

I've taken a look at the problem. If it's not too much trouble, it
would be a big help if you could post the steps (similar to the
technique below) that cause the problem. If user2 closes a whiteboard
and user1 sends another whiteboard item to user 2, by design, user2's
whiteboard will pop up again. Not sure if this is what you're seeing.
We've discussed internally if this should be the correct behavior or
not--would like to hear your opinion. The following steps show a
technique to document the behavior:

scenario 1:

user 1 user 2
login
login
start whiteboard
draw rect
sees rect
close wb
draw rect
sees 2 rects
logout
login
draw rect
sees only 3rd rect

Glad you are enjoying the software, except for this problem.
Thanks, Larry

Actually, no..

I was opening a whiteboard for user2 and one would open for user3 who was on
Yahoo (via transport) and who I never tried a whiteboard with. I would
start a shared editor with user2 and the user2 whiteboard would pop up and
the user3 whiteboard I just closed (and never opened in the first place). I
would close the whiteboards and shared editor, and user4 would IM me. I
would say something, close the user4 IM box. I would then IM user2, open a
whiteboard.. The User2, user3, and now a user4 whiteboard would open with
the user2 editor. Very weird.

So far nothing like this has happened since that first incident. I am on
Spark 2.5.6 now and so far so good.

There is a simple patch for this Problem.

WhiteboardPlugin.java
---- CUT ---
64d63
< private Map<ChatRoom,ChatRoomButton> buttonMap = new
ConcurrentHashMap<ChatRoom,ChatRoomButton>();
190a190,191
> final ChatRoomButton button = new ChatRoomButton(getImageIcon("stock_new-drawing-24.png"));
> button.setToolTipText("Share a whiteboard");
194,203d194
< ChatRoomButton button;
< if (buttonMap.get(room) == null)
< {
< button = new
ChatRoomButton(getImageIcon("stock_new-
drawing-24.png"));
< button.setToolTipText("Share a whiteboard");
< buttonMap.put(room,button);
<
< }
< button = buttonMap.get(room);
<
215,217c206
< ChatRoomButton button = buttonMap.get(room);
< if (button != null)
<
room.getToolBar().removeChatRoomButton(button);
---
> room.getToolBar().removeChatRoomButton(button);
---- CUT ---

Thanks a lot for the patch. I'll take a look at it this weekend.
