From 742d85dd0e90a584b9c368ca57094018e0d32a17 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julien Danjou Date: Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:41:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Handle synthetic UnmapNotify events According to the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual, if you want to switch your window to withdrawn state, you unmap it and send a synthetic UnmapNotify to the root window. This synthetic event fixes a race condition. When you map and unmap a window quickly, the map will generate a MapRequest for the WM but won't actually map the window. Thus, the unmap will be discarded (-> window not yet mapped) and the window stays map once the WM handles the MapRequest Before this patch, awesome just ignored the synthetic unmap notify which caused the bug to appear again. With this patch it doesn't happen anymore.
