Description giorgio42 2008-10-21 15:38:30 UTC 
Latest daily 200810181401.

I have two web application projects with different project names in different directories containing the same classes
because one is just a modified copy of the other.

If I have both projects open in NB and I click on an hyperlinked exception in the Apache Tomcat 6.0.18 server log, the
click takes me to the wrong source file (in my case to the source file in the first [in project window sort order]
project, while the second project would actually be the correct one. 

The effect is that I am taken to lines containing comments or closing braces or other code unrelated to the exception.

The work-around is to close the "wrong" project.

Obviously the link between the exception and the source is too naive.
