Description Tomas Pavek 2002-09-09 15:23:20 UTC

Tried form editor form trunk with new projects
(custom build 20020909-1511). It is not possible
to open a form. The cause is that wrong OpenCookie
is used. I don't see too deep in how this works,
but basically, there are two OpenCookies
registered on the data object - JavaEditor by
JavaDataObject and FormDataObject.OpenEdit by
FormDataObject (FormDataObject extends
JavaDataObject). JavaEditor implements OpenCookie
as EditorSupport, FormDataObject.OpenEdit
implements OpenCookie and EditCookie directly. The
problem is that JavaEditor is used - instead of
FormDataObject.OpenEdit as it should (and as it
does in trunk build). Note both cookies are found
in the node lookup, but JavaEditor is preferred.
Some ideas?

Sorry -- unmodified Form is not guaranteed to work against
Project-version java.
EditorSupport is no longer used, Java module now uses a derivative of
CloneableEditorSupport.
