Description _ jrichard 2001-04-15 03:59:08 UTC

In a WizardDescriptor.Panel, the addChangeListener() can be
called without ever having the removeChangeListener() called.
This occurs if you cancel the wizard instead of completing it
normally.

While this wouldn't normally be a problem, it could be if the 
Panels are reused (that would be at least a memory leak).

Target milestone -> 3.3

Comment 2 jrojcek 2001-09-19 17:27:24 UTC

It is partialy fixed in dev20010920. It doesn't fix cases when new
closing options are provided from outside. It seems that complete fix
requires bigger changes.

Comment 3 jrojcek 2001-09-27 10:21:22 UTC

This won't be fixed in 3.3 bcs it needs wizard redesign. 
If it blocks other bugs from being solved then change milestone back
and increase priority, please.

assing to openide/wizard owner.

Comment 5 Jiri Rechtacek 2004-06-11 20:08:01 UTC

The processing of WizardDescriptor has been changed a lot in promoD,
the the property change listeners should be removed by WD. The test
org.openide.InstantiatingIteratorTest.class/testAddCleanChangeListenerAfterCancel
covers this problem. IMHO I can close as worksforme.
John, please reopen if you know any case which fails this contract. Thanks
