These select functions will not only select an IO tab but also apply various additional operations to the containing TopComponent. This isn't always desirable. There is a need for a more primitive/flexible select() operation. Use case: A terminal-based implementation of IOProvider is used by solstudio to host tabless debugger consoles and process io windows. When the debugging session is switched we want to apply select() w/o necessarily bringing up the TC's. An API change is currently being discussed as bug#184894.
Was issue #184894 integrated? Unfortunately there's only an empty "Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/" :-( And if it solves this problem, can we close this bug?
