Description Martin Krauskopf 2006-02-08 08:24:58 UTC 
Only case I know about is org.openide.windows.IOProvider for org.openide.io. I
think that when the user adds the dependency on I/O APIs this token should be
added automatically. I'm not sure if this token should be added in every
situation since sometime it is not needed as it is already required by other
module as I was pointed out by Milos. Also not sure if there is another such
case (module - token interdependency). But... please evaluate and eventually
reassign to me for implementation if you want and if it is not WONTFIX.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2006-02-08 18:53:52 UTC 
There is no metadata in the module saying which tokens should be required by
clients.
