Subject: Buffer being killed not current in kill-buffer-hook
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 16:29:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8763r1obx6.wl%max@openchat.com> (raw)
When using multi-tty emacsclient, the following piece of code demostrates the problem:
DISPLAY is unset, CVS Emacs started with --no-init-file
(require 'server)
(progn (setq server-name "test")
(server-start))
(defun print-current-buffer ()
(message "current-buffer=%s" (current-buffer)))
(add-hook 'kill-buffer-hook 'print-current-buffer)
Now from a different screen session, connect with emacsclient like so:
"lib-src/emacsclient -c -s test foo". New tty frame will be created.
Immeditely kill the buffer, it will ask "Buffer has existing clients"
say "yes". emacsclient will disconnect from a server.
In the *Messages* buffer on the server frame:
When done with a buffer, type C-x #
(No files need saving)
current-buffer=*scratch*
All the code that uses kill-buffer-hook rightfully assumes that the
buffer being killed will be current buffer when called, as that is
what is stated in the kill-buffer-hook documentation. For example
saveplace does not work because of this.
I had fixed this with the following patch, altho I don't know enough
about server.el logic to figure out if what it does is ok? Seems to
have fixed the bug and not broke anything else:
