Description pzajac 2005-10-28 23:13:08 UTC
[200510261800]
A module suite was opened in IDE. I wanted to create standalone module
project.But I forget that the module in module suite is automatically selected..

The module suite project was than removed from disk.

After that I wasn't able to open the module project. 

Instead of Project name in Project open filechooser was: 
java.io.IOException: No suite.dir defined from /home/pzajac/vyvoj/MyPrj

We're not going to implement a complete set of error handlers in the GUI for
5.0. Fix your project metadata.
Comment 2 Martin Krauskopf 2005-10-31 15:52:28 UTC
Yes, true. The tens of such issues could be filled. I think there is no reason
to not fill them here as ideas what could be done and make an umbrella from
61227 issue.
Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2006-01-10 04:31:28 UTC
Not sure about "Broken References Dialog". Seems that we are getting rid of them
in the IDE(already did so?). Probably making the Suite/Module node red like in
other project types would be good enough. Than user would go instinctively to
properties where would be some categories in red with "Ok" button disabled. Or
suite would have some of its subnodes red which would mean "Subproject is
broken/deleted" or whatever with tooltip. Again properties would say more. CCing
Jano.

Yes, I hope that for promo G, we will get rid of the broken reference dialogs and integrate with the 
properties dialog similarly as you describe it.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2006-01-31 11:48:30 UTC
promo-H you mean.
Comment 6 jrojcek 2006-01-31 15:43:08 UTC
Yes, I mean promo H.
Comment 7 Martin Krauskopf 2006-02-28 18:42:43 UTC
This was fixed somehow in the past. You can open corrupted suite-component. So
we are one step further. However see issue 73058. Not 100% sure about TM.
