“Reload in target plaform” is not working in Netbeans 6.1/6.5 RC2 in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I filed a bug report

http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=153354

It seems that it cannot find the inner class ResolvableHelper inside the TopComponent. (throws a NoClassDefFoundException, see the messages.log for details ). It’s funny though, because it works perfectly in Windows XP and Vista, I thought this stuff was platform independent.

Typing tilde on Netbeans 6.1 - annoying java bug

Friday, July 11th, 2008

It seems that is imposible to type the ˜ symbol (named also tilde,squiggle,twiddle,not,approx,wiggle,swung,dash,enyay,sqiggle) in Netbeans with a Swedish keyboard at least. It seems that it’s a long known java bug (bug 6353098, bug 6253172). At least I can use the Alt+126 code to type it.

Eclipse bug 149890 finally solved

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

After long long time since the bug #149890 was reported on 2006-07-06 has been finally resolved on 2008-02-03. I wonder if my comment on javalobby a couple of days ago has something to do with this. Now it seems that is possible to have a dynamic MenuManager as a submenu of the parent MenuManager.

Eclipse Bug #201116 update: Switch compare viewer for java files

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

I’ve submitted a patch (Attachment #77777 and a couple of screenshots ( Attachment #77774 y Attachment #77776) to Bug #201116. It’s only a preliminary work but it enables the user to select with contentMergeViewer to use with each FileType/ContentType. Now it’s only useful if you use my java formatting compare plugin. Currently the org.eclipse.compare subsystem will allow only one contentMergeViewer per fileType or contentType and you cannot tell which one it will be as Szymon Brandys comments. With this patch the user can select/switch which one he wants to use among all viewer registered for a given file extension/content type.

Bug 201116 – Compare will silently discard additional contentMergeViewers associated with the same file extension

Friday, August 31st, 2007

I filled Bug 201116 – Compare will silently discard additional contentMergeViewers associated with the same file extension a couple of days ago. As Szymon Brandys says eclipse should allow the user to switch between the differente merge viewer available for a given extension. He proposes two solutions:

1) Having a mechanishm inside the compare view to do the switch 2) or having a preference page to do the same

I feel more inclined towards the second solution, as I’m used to change the defautl editor for .xml, etc though the preference page General -> Editors -> File Associations. Having a similar preference page would fit me. I’m trying to figure out how to integrate a preference page to org.eclipse.compare and send it back to eclipse.org to include it in the next release.

Java bug producing SAAJ0511 error

Thursday, July 5th, 2007

I run onto the following exception a couple of days ago:

Caused by: org.w3c.dom.DOMException: NAMESPACE_ERR: An attempt is made to create
 or change an object in a way which is incorrect with regard to namespaces.
        at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.CoreDocumentImpl.checkDOMNSErr
(CoreDocumentImpl.java:2421)

the following log trace was also present in the log file

SEVERE: SAAJ0511: Unable to create envelope from given source

Apparently I run onto a known java bug present in jdk1.5.0_08 up to jdk1.5.0_11. Funny, I downgraded to jdk1.5.0_07.

Silly Apache JMeter 2.2 bug

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007

The JDBC Sampler always commits (it doesn’t honor the auto-commit = false parameter)

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42018. I’ve provided a patch that solved it at Bugzilla
