[libreoffice-accessibility] Possilbe UNO Accessibility API -Java Access Bridge issue in current build of Master while using NVDA for AT

Hi Tom,

No it was an issue with the 4.1.0 daily builds of master. The bug listed, fdo#63680, deals with 
indeterminant crashes of Writer on Windows builds of master--the last viable TinderBox build 
occurred 8 April, so this issue has been on the Most Annoying Bugs list for the 4.1 development.

Also, turned out to be a problem over on the NV Access, NVDA side where one of the modules for 
handling Java Access Bridge based content was misconfigured in their upcomming 2013.1 release as 
compared to the stable 2012.3.1 version--that has been corrected.

With the TDF and LibreOffice with 3.6.7, 4.0.3 and ongoing development of master (currently notated 
4.1.0+ alpha) I cycle through all the branches testing for Windows (and occasionally Linux and OSX 
builds) looking at general usability and trying to identify accessibility issues.

At any time I will have  4 or 5 LibreOffice or Apache OpenOffice installations and assistive 
technologies loaded. Not too difficult to accomplish, just have to pay attention to configuration 
and understand when registry and user profiles have to be removed or relocated.

This Wiki entry is helpful for anyone interested, always looking for committed QA participants who 
can work an issue:

p.s. -- hope you don't mind that I put your note back on-list, figure some folks might have been 
confused and would benefit from an explanation.

Hi :)
I don't think anyone noticed or else they understood what you meant but i take it you meant the 
4.0.1 rather than the 4.1.0?  I don't think the 4.1.0 is out yet?
Regards from
Tom :)

So is not an issue with accessibility API and Java Access Bridge  - problem
confirmed  to be issue of  FDO#63680
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63680>  against LibreOffice
