Description ivan 2004-09-03 22:18:30 UTC 
Models.ActionPerformer + createAction() are not
that flexible.
Their main purpose is to help
map ActionEvent's to debugger objects/nodes. This
is performed by the internal-Node->object map in 
ActionSupport.

The problem is that if you want a 
slightly more sophisticated action, like a
BooleanStateAction, you're stuck.

So why not make the service that ActionSupport
performs be explicit and 
have a method, getActionObjects() that uses 
getActivatedNodes() maps them to the debugger
objects and returns those objects.

Ivan, can you please elaborate? Why is not the current state sufficient and what
BooleanStateAction are you talking about?
The ActionSupport calls perform() of the target performer on the debugger
objects. That should be sufficient for the performer IMO.
Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2005-12-13 10:05:25 UTC 
Still incomplete => wontfix.
Comment 3 Quality Engineering 2010-04-29 09:19:12 UTC 
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
