CGSUpdateManager warning during createContext on OS X 10.11.6

Not sure this is the right place to report, but since Bugzilla requires a password I post it here.

I get reproducible CGSUpdateManager warnings on OS X 10.11.6 (MacPro 2009 with NVidia GeForce GT 120) which do not happen on other platforms (OS X 10.10.5, Ubuntu 16.04). This is with the current jogl 2.3.2 from maven central.

The program in question is from https://github.com/nasarace/race-client-example.git. It needs SBT to build:

  git clone https://github.com/nasarace/race-client-example.git
  cd race-client-example
  sbt stage
  ./race-client-example conf/ISS.conf

Hi

I can create a new bugzilla account for you if you want.

Do you reproduce this bug with a tiny example?
https://gist.github.com/gouessej/3420e2b6f632efdddf98

running your gist I get the "deleted thread with uncommitted CATransaction.." warning in CreateNSWindow that was already reported in Bugzilla (and supposedly fixed). Please note that is a different warning than the one I reported (which happens in createContext). However, I also get the "uncommitted CATransaction.." when closing down the RACE example.

Backtrace for the gist example is attached

Yes, it's probably best to use a Bugzilla account to avoid annoying everyone with debug messages, especially since I'm going to heavily rely on jogl/jocl in RACE and probably will run into more issues.

Thanks,
-- Peter

It looks like you created this bug to track the issue:  https://jogamp.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1350
I don't have an account on the tracker but hopefully this message gets to you!

I see this same warning printout (the CGSUpdateManager::log message, with same stack order as listed on the bug) on OS X 10.11.6 and JOGL 2.3.2 just by running the jogl demos.  The warning is always printed 10 seconds after launch, but the software seems to continue running just fine.

e.g., I see it when executing:
java demos.vertexBufferObject.VertexBufferObject
java demos.gears.Gears

Same problem with Java 8 and 9.

Thank you for the feedback. I can create a bugzilla account for you if you want.
