Description Brad Taylor 2008-11-21 21:41:59 UTC

Problems could potentially arise when an AT-SPI client retains a reference to an object which has been GC'ed on the Bridge.  Please investigate this issue to develop a test case, a detailed description of the underlying problem, a potential solution, and an estimate if it will take longer than the scope of this issue.

Yes, this is an issue, although the dbus port of at-spi will not
include remote reference counting, so it is more of an issue that we'd see
with the current (CORBA-based) implementation.
