Description Jan Benway 2002-05-03 19:05:56 UTC
Filed on behalf of a FFJ 4.0 user who said:

If I attempt to add an incorrect JavaDoc directory I get an error message. This is good. 
However, I have to go back and start the operation again. This is a waste of time
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2002-05-09 10:06:42 UTC
Changing into an UI enhancement & bumping the priority. Which
operation was it ? Mount new javadoc documentation, changing the
output directory for javadoc generation or other property in JavaDoc
executor/doclet which requires directory input ?
Comment 2 Jonathan Allin 2002-06-02 17:22:27 UTC
Problem arises when I want to mount (ie add) new JavaDoc 
documentation. In this case I was attempting to add the 
MIDP 1.0 Java documentation 
Comment 3 Marek Grummich 2002-07-19 16:14:20 UTC
Target milestone was changed from not determined to TBD
Comment 4 _ pkuzel 2003-09-09 17:03:27 UTC
I'm now responsible for JavaDoc module.
Comment 5 _ pkuzel 2003-10-22 15:05:34 UTC
JFileChooser does not allow to plug in customized selection filters,
there are only fixed ones (FILE, DIRECTORY, both).

Lets wait for UI spec issue #32636. It should come with consistent
selection validating choosers concept.

Note that NodeOperatons.select() supported both content nad selection
filters. One can also file JDK enhancement if needed.

[batch] Giving up javadoc issues exclusive ownership.
Comment 7 Jan Pokorsky 2005-05-02 10:04:49 UTC
The code adding javadoc has been moved to java platform and libraries modules.
Reassining.
