Description Peter Lam 2006-08-16 19:37:49 UTC

Coke build 17a on Mac OS X ppc & intel only using jdk 1.6 beta 2.

Stepping through the Reverse Engineering tutorial to steps to create class
diagram from selected elements step 5 of section "Generating a Class Diagram".
The attached java.lang.StackOverflowError exception dialog appeared and class
diagram was not created properly. After this dismissing this exception dialog,
clicking anywhere on the diagram pops up this exception dialog again. So, could
not continue to work until ide is restarted. See attached for the ide log file
containing this super long exception.
