nanogui: Thread: Reconnection problem...

I don't seem to be able to reconnect to the nano-x server from the same
process: basically after a GrOpen() followed by GrClose() calling
GrOpen() again fails (the server  is started with -p so it doesn't quit
after the first connection is closed). Quitting and restarting the app
(the server doesnt need restarting) works ok. I'm using 0.89pre7, can
anyone else reproduce this or is just my system?

Sample code to reproduce the problem:

#include <stdio.h>
#include "nano-X.h"
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
 
  int connect;
 
 
  connect = GrOpen();
  if(connect < 0) {
    printf("Connection failed (1)\n");
    exit(1);
  }
  sleep(2);
  GrClose();
 
  sleep(2);
 
  connect = GrOpen();
  if(connect < 0) {
    printf("Connection failed (2)\n");
    exit(1);
  }
  printf("Reconnected ok.\n");
  sleep(2);
  GrClose();
   
 
}

Hi,

I submitted a fix for this problem back in March. I think Greg has it 
in CVS but noyt in a release yet. Take a look at this link...
