Description zikmund 2004-01-28 17:56:12 UTC

Build 200401271900-ismp5
How to reproduce:
1) go to the "J2SDK Selection Panel" and/or
"Directory Selection Panel"
2) Press "Browse" button to open "Open" dialog
3) "Open" dialog appears
4) ERROR:
There is "Files of type" list box - empty, but a
bit confusing. I think that it could be:

a) disabled,
b) removed (using some special flag when opening
dialog - maybe), or
c) setted one list box item called "All files" ...
to have same behavior as Browse window in NB

Suggestion:
I'd prefer (b), but I'm afraid it's not possible,
therefore voting for (c).

In current installers 4.0, 4.1 we use standard Swing JFileChooser. I tested
installer daily build on Win2K + JDK 1.4.2_08 JDK 5.0u3 and Win XP + JDK 5.0u3
and it works fine: 'All Files' is selected in JFileChooser by default.

NB installer I tested was
netbeans-4_1-daily-bin-200503170655-windows-17_Mar_2005_0655.exe
