Actually I changed my mind, this is likely a Netbeans bug, not a JDK issue. I can copy/paste properly from the editor. This is a OUTPUT-WINDOW specific issue. Seems like the output window copies directly into the system clipboard while the editor was recently modified to use NbClipboard instead (see issue 40693). Reassigning to core for further evaluation. Setting priority appropriately - P1 is appropriate for the IDE not starting, throwing exceptions all the time, or silently deleting your work, none of which is happening here. I will look at it, and if the fix is simple enough, we will do something for 3.6. Tim, IMO: This is a core functionality. People are going to be copy/pasting off the output-window all the time. Besides which, this is a regression and should be fixed for 3.6 final. Hi Guys, I was going to report this one...it's been annoying me for a while. The last comment says it will be fixed for 3.6 final, which I know is fast approaching. Is it going to be fixed for 3.6? Possibly in an update release, if not, in 4.0. I have an output window rewrite in progress which greatly simplifies the code for it, and fixes about 20 accessibility bugs like this. *** Issue 41771 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** I must agree that this bug is annoying, I just discovered it, but the workaround works fine for the moment :) (I use Nb3.6 RC2, jdk1.4.2, win2000) Another work-around is to use the output window's popup menu to copy. Ian, Thomas, Tim, I understand you plan a rewrite in 4.0 but I would like to reiterate that in my view this is a core functionality of Netbeans which is going to confuse a lot of users. Can you not also fix it in 3.6? Reassigning to Marek, new owner of output window and help system *** Issue 43328 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 42356 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 43125 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Given the number of duplicates and votes, it looks like many people come across this issue and it's really, really annoying. So shouldn't the priority be upgraded to P2? For Netbeans there is already new impl of output window where it is fixed. This issue is just to track problems in terminal emulator. *** Issue 50249 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 51892 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** The core team has not been responsible for terminal emulator for long time, so reassigne all opened issues to responsible person. The outptu2 window has definitely fixed these problems. However we have a new terminal-based output window capability. I'm marking this as dupof bug #182968 which I"m going to use as the umbrella bug for keystroke binding issues. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 182968 *** |
dev build 200403151900 JDK 1.5 beta 1 This seems to be somewhat random. Sometimes copying in step 2 doesn't work at all. 1) Double click on an entry in the output window 2) Hit CTRL-C to copy 3) Paste into editor 4) Double click on a different entry in the output window 5) Hit CTRL-C to copy 6) Paste into editor 7) In step 6, the contents of step 2 will be paste instead of the contents of step 5 A workaround is: 5b) hit ALT-TAB to switch to another application, then switch back to Netbeans 6a) Paste will now work This sounds like a JDK bug to me. I'm just running it by you to be sure. Can you please reproduce it on your end? If its a JDK bug I'd like to file it with Sun but I'd appreciate some help coming up with a minimal testcase.
