Description Jesse Glick 2004-05-13 22:28:28 UTC

When running with the "truncate package view"
patch, the Java target chooser panel is screwed up.

1. It shows the truncated package names in the
chooser - should be showing the actual package
names. (No need for icons either, useless.) Just
use a plain JList or something.

2. Worse, if I select a package, it claims it is
going to be creating the file in e.g.

..../nb_all/ant/src/o/apa/too/ant/mod/spi/Whatever.java

when it should be e.g.

..../nb_all/ant/src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/spi/Whatever.java

Apparently the code is using the *display name* of
the package node, which is a very poor idea.

3. Even worse, even though I *cancelled* the wizard, it created the folder

.../nb_all/ant/src/o/apa/too/ant/module

on disk! Should never do anything unless I press Finish.

P4 only because only happens with the truncate patch AFAIK, but still
shows that the code is not very well written.

Comment 2 Petr Hrebejk 2004-05-19 12:25:55 UTC

Changed to node name. Ehich works and does not clash with the
optionally shortened package name.
