Lazarus restart problem with firefox

[IndianaJones]

Hi all,

After restarting the Lazarus ide, cannot swap (change) to the firefox application but before restarting it works normal.
Could anyone test it?

Mac OS X 10.5.7
Lazarus SVN 20466
FPC 2.2.4

Thanks

[skalogryz]

do you mean to swap in the Dock?

or switch to firefox, by using Cmd-Tab key?

what bundle are you using to start lazarus?

[IndianaJones]

Yes you cant swap from the DOCK or Cmd-Tab key combination, it doesnt work.
But it can swap to any other application without any problem.

so, what bundle is used to launch lazarus?

[IndianaJones]

Not bundle, last svn revision.

[skalogryz]

i've installed FF3.
i'm using r20467
OSX can switch between FF and Lazarus with not problems, by clicking on the icon docks as weel as pressing Cmd-Tab.

i've launched the Lazarus in the following ways:
1) (from lazarus dir) open lazarus.app
2) (from lazarus dir) lazarus.app/Contents/MacOS/lazarus

if you're using /Application/Lazarus bundle, with latest svn changes it might cause problems.

[IndianaJones]

I suppose you missed something, open the Lazarus application and restart from the File menu then you will try and see what is going on with the switching.

Thanks

[skalogryz]

i wasn't aware of 'Restart' menu item

but still, even after using Restart, everything works. And applications can be switched.
any ideas?

[IndianaJones]

Thanks for the testing, so what is your FF exact version?

[skalogryz]

is it FF bug?

the version given at the FF's about dialog is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042315 Firefox/3.0.10

[IndianaJones]

We use the same FF3 version, so the problem could be add-ons, i have lots of them.
Thanks

[Vincent Snijders]

Can you both make sure that you are using the same unmodified svn version.

What is the result of "svn st"?

IndianaJones, make sure that lazarus.app/Contents/MacOS/startlazarus does not exist anymore.

can FF switch between other applications? i.e. XCode?

[IndianaJones]

Here is my output.
@skalogryyz yes I can switch to other application without problem.
@Vincent I execute the lazarus.app from the Dock.

@skalogryyz, I see
?      startlazarus.app

To be sure, can you remove that and retest?
