Chromium and Wings 3D

Hello all,

First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who has been involved in the 
Chromium development. Chromium has been a great help for me as I have been 
working on a two wall Cave -like system.

Recently I've been trying to run Wings 3D (a neat open source polygon 
modeling app) with Chromium but this has caused a problem that I haven't 
been able to solve.

For some reason the SDL based window management of Wings causes Chromium 
to open multiple rendering windows on the server node. First, when 
Chromium is set up and application starts, multiple crserver rendering 
windows open in the server node and after that, a new window is opened 
every time the blank application window in the client node is resized.

I'm running Chromium 1.9 debug build on two PCs, one running mothership 
and application with crfaker.dll and other running the crserver.

I tried to inspect this issue and it seems that Wings is calling 
wglCreateContext several times when it starts, trying to initialize 
different opengl modes. Wings also sends wglCreateContext each time the 
application window is resized on client node. It looks like these wgl 
calls are changed into WindowCreate events by Chromium when they arrive to 
the server node.

Can anyone explaing what is causing this or give some suggestions how I 
could prevent crserver from opening multiple windows? Any help would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Tatu Harviainen
