[build 36]
While doing update of java module (with attached java.nbm) IDE restarts with 
exception (attached ide.log). During next starts this problem doesn't appear.

I apologize, but unable to add module to IssueZilla. Write me to send it by e-
mail. 
Thanks.

Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2001-04-24 17:04:54 UTC

This seems to consistently happen in general, when B depends on A and uses
classes from A and you place a newer version of A in the user modules/
directory. That is serious. I was sure this was tested at some point, but
apparently it was not, or was broken more recently. Will investigate.

Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2001-04-24 18:44:03 UTC

The patch does appear to solve the stated problem. I created a fresh build
(first start). Started it. Invoked auto update, selected new java.nbm. IDE shut
down, unpacked java.nbm, restarted and new Java was installed, or at least I
assume it was the new version. No errors anywhere.

However there could be strange regressions triggered by this--it needs to be
tested in more circumstances.

Comment 7 Jesse Glick 2001-04-24 19:17:01 UTC

Old fixed bugs that should probably be verified with this patch: #10038, #9943,
#9806, #5921, #9542, #5923.

Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2001-04-25 13:09:38 UTC

Patch applied in the trunk.

Comment 9 Jaromir Uhrik 2001-04-25 14:57:54 UTC

Patch tested in 3.2. Related bugs from commet above verified. Patch seems that 
works OK.

Comment 10 Jesse Glick 2001-04-25 16:42:56 UTC

Fix merged to release32.

Comment 11 Jan Chalupa 2001-05-05 20:48:49 UTC

Target milestone 3.2

Comment 12 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 16:24:16 UTC

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