See question 3 and the followup responses at <http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=247950&listName=nbdev> Basically, the idea is to implement marking for the core string editor with the following requirements: - If a value is invalid, show the mark in the property sheet - Always enable the Ok button in the popup property editor. There can be an error dialog on ok (IllegalArgumentException/ErrorManager annotation by setValue) implemented by the caller if there is a problem. The Ok button enablement shouldn't be updated on each keystroke. - Make sure that the property marking is properly updated when the user cancels and there is an invalid value but a valid value in the cancelled dialog. - Make sure the in place editor continues to work as it did before I will file a separate enhancement request for the rest of the core editors.
Target milestone was changed from '3.4' to TBD.
reassigne to Tim, new owner of property editors.
Passing property editor issues to new owner, Jirka
It's not planned for long time. It's fair to close as WONTFIX
