Description _ briansmith 2002-12-04 07:09:11 UTC

I just CVS-uped all my modules and rebuilt them
all, and I noticed that MDR Explorer is not
functioning. In particular:

(1) The root node of the MDR Explorer has a plain
white "document" icon instead of the normal icon,
it contains no child nodes, there are no
interesting properties, and there are no
alternative looks listed for the node.

(2) Opening MDR Explorer does not cause the
storage files for the repositories to be created.
Usually, the storage files get created when MDR
Explorer first starts, if they don't exist already.

(3) Even if another module accesses the repository
and thus creates the storage files, MDR Explorer
is not updated to see them.

I suspect this is a looks-related issue but I
don't know where to start investigating. I see
that there have been some changes to Looks
recently. I have rebuilt the MDR module within the
last few days without noticing this problem, but I
had not rebuilt NetBeans in a few weeks until just
a few moments ago.

This was caused by last week's changes in naming module which caused
the looks module to not work. I have fixed the looks module, so now it
should be ok. Thanks for catching this!
