  1. Open a .net app. I'm using tween, but also tried this in EdSharp.
  2. In the post box, turn on speak typed characters. Activate the Japanese IME and type こんにちは.

NVDA takes a long time before it starts reading what I type. In other applications, like notepad, this is instant.

I am running main 5931 from source and obtained similar log as follows.
Tested with an application which contains a textbox. The app is written in Visual C# 2012 and using .NET framework 4.5.
Running on Windows 8 64bit and Microsoft Japanese IME is enabled.

Accessible Event Watcher (x64) says the className of the textbox is "WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1", althouh I am not sure it is helpful or not.

Please review the patch as follows. In this loop the use of accFocus() for several times gives the very beginning object, so it causes the infinite loop.

Can you please try with the attached patch? If I'm right, this should deal with the root cause of the loop rather than hacking around it.

Hello, the patch of comment:5 with branch 2013.1 rev 6012 resolves the issue.

The patch is also tested by NVDA Japanese team member and confirmed that Tween is working without the delay.

Comment 7 by jteh on 2013-04-04 11:09
Technical: We call accChild if accFocus returns a child because some implementations (e.g. Lotus Symphony) return a child ID even when there is actually an IAccessible for that child. It looks like .net returns CHILDID_SELF and we don't handle this, so we call accChild, which gives us back a different pointer to the same object. This change checks for CHILDID_SELF and just returns the original IAccessible. I'm pushing this into 2013.1 because it is fairly serious for anyone using Asian character input in .net apps and this should be fairly low risk for anything else.
