[Bf-committers] Status of OSX stuff

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

Ah, when I read this text from Rob, this also resembles the bug we  
still suffer from when you close the renderwindow at OSX (closing  
currently disabled). The Blender app then looks like its frozen, but in  
fact it refuses to do swapbuffers anymore... further it just keeps  
working.

It's somewhere deep low level in Ghost... I never coded at this  
windowing/opengl-context level, so I am clueless.
