Description iformanek 2002-07-24 10:36:31 UTC

TO reproduce:
1. install fresh 3.4
2. click on .java file in win explorer
3. NB comes up, with the correct filesystem mounted but 
the editor is not opened

Comment 1 Marian Mirilovic 2002-07-24 15:00:21 UTC

Well, this is showstoper for 3.4 RC1, please evaluate ASAP.

It seems like it doesn't work only for first opened file, if you close
Welcome Screen , close IDE, and try to open java file again ,
appropriate filesystem is mounted, Source Editor isn't opened but menu
item View | Source Editor is enabled and if you push it Source Editor
with right java file is opened.

cc'ing Marek for evaluation of Window System side

Comment 2 _ lkramolis 2002-07-24 16:23:36 UTC

Main problem is that runide.exe extends arguments with path to java
file in 8.3 format, e.g. C:\MAIN~1.JAV, and it is not currently
recognized as Java file at Utilities side. If it is run with
C:\Main.java everything is right. I hope EXE is able to use right full
name, because it could be nicer fix that in Utilities module.

Comment 3 _ lkramolis 2002-07-24 16:30:18 UTC

Trung said that EXE is not able to determine file name -- it get it
from oper. system.
[Back to Utilities]

Comment 4 _ lkramolis 2002-07-24 17:15:36 UTC

Problem:
========
It occures just if filesystem of requested file is not mounted yet.

OpenFile does not recognize .JAV files as Java sources, e.g.
C:\src\org\MAIN~1.JAV. Then it does not parse it to detect right
package and mount parent directory as root of new FS, e.g. C:\src\org.
But FS is not able to find MAIN~1.JAV on it -- nothing is opened.

FIX:
====
Using File.getCanonicalFile() I get correct file name, e.g.
C:\src\org\Main.java.
(See attached patch.)
