NetBeans 3.3.1 ... build 200201040331 ... Solaris 8 ... J2SDK1.4.0_b90 No Accessible description : Class: javax.swing.JButton { Cancel | } Class: javax.swing.JButton { OK | } Class: javax.swing.JTextField { Tag Name: | } Components with no LABEL_FOR pointing to it : Class: javax.swing.JTabbedPane { Option tabs. | Command option tabs. }
Added keyword A11Y.
this is not a bug. 1. buttons do not need to have a11y descriptions to be accessible. 2. the jtextfield does not need an a11y description 3. the jtabbed pane does not need a label. as a rule a11y descriptions are only for components whose function is unclear. if the a11y name provides enough information then the description is not necessary. this isn't something that the testing tool will figure out for you. you have to look at the dialog and make that judgement yourself.
OK.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
