Comment 1 Jan Zajicek 2001-07-25 15:07:09 UTC 
IceBrowser was removed from standard dev build of nb and is avaible
only through autoupdate, so this is the reason why you see mentioned
exception. Jesse, shouldn't be this better annotated to the user? Thanks.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2001-07-25 15:48:41 UTC 
Definitely it should and in fact I already have an uncommitted patch
because I observed this from f4j IE 2 -> dev NB. With the patch it
just prints one warning line and skips the module with no further ado.

By the way Radim--are you sure you want to *remove* the module from
builds completely? We have the opportunity to include it in builds but
leave it disabled by default (though an existing user dir saying it
was enabled would override this). IMHO at least little-used modules
like RMI or similar should be handled this way, I don't know if the
situation with icebrowser is comparable.

Should be fixed in the trunk.
Comment 6 Jan Zajicek 2001-07-27 14:26:39 UTC 
Verified in dev #20010727, now in these cases will be following line
printed on terminal:

Warning: the module /export/home/LastNB/netbeans/modules/XXX.jar could
not be found, ignoring...
