[ BUILD # : 200710150000 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_02 ] Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200710150000) Java: 1.6.0_03; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0_03-b05 System: Linux version 2.6.22.9-slh-smp-1 running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Userdir: /home/sasbeb/.netbeans/dev tooltips showing undefined variable names (ie foo is undefined, blah blah, blah) not going away even after hitting esc. Typically, the code is cut and pasted into the editor and tips show up before I can fix the typo. Iterestingly enough, the tooltip accepts keyboard focus (shows the caret). I tried typing and of course it through an exception.
Can you attach screenshot of the problem and stacktrace? Thanks
Tooltips work fine for me.
Then it works for everyone ;) If I can reproduce it, I will and give the snapshot and stack trace. "Truth is stranger than fiction" I can't be making this stuff up;)
Thanks sasbeb, I didn't say you made it up. ;-) Sometimes strange defects are reported that can only be reproduced under certain conditions. Hunting them down can be frustrating experience for both the reporter and the developer. The first one can clearly see the defect while the other can't and has no clue what the hell could be wrong. Well, as you said, sometimes 'Truth is stranger than fiction'. Cheers, -vita

moving opened issues from TM <= 6.1 to TM=Dev
We will have a look at this LATER.
How is this resolved?
http://wiki.netbeans.org/IssueLifeCycle#section-IssueLifeCycle-EvaluatingIssues says: > Use LATER resolution for issues that we don't plan to fix in this neither next release. That's what we're planning to do, sorry -- it does not mean the issue does not exist, however until this issue is somehow clarified or reproduced, there's not much to do.
