Issue
There was a race condition in the
toggle
method where VizRank couldbe left without a running worker thread. This could happen between
setting
keep_running
from False to True and subsequent call toQThread.start
. The worker could readkeep_running
as False rightbefore that and not yet exit before the call to start. Then start would
be a noop and the thread would stop right after.
This manifests in a sometimes failing
Orange.widgets.visualize.tests.test_owmosaic.MosaicVizRankTests.test_pause_continue
Description of changes
Fix by explicitly joining the thread on 'pause' as a synchronization point.
