Description Petr Slegr 2001-10-24 11:22:38 UTC
[dev-10/24/01]

Changes in files lost when exiting IDE.

1. Open a file into editor and modify it (DO NOT SAVE)
2. Try exit IDE, e.g. via Main window closing icon.
3. Dialog with list of modified files will appear. Choose Cancel, so process of 
exiting should be stopped.
4. Now dialog "File <name> is modified. Save it?" will appear (the same one as 
when editor with modified file is to be closed). Choose Cancel.

Now IDE will exit and changes are thrown away. Very bad behaviour and data loss.

this is a regression caused recently by adding "showing pending
actions on exit"

verified in dev#20011025

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
