Description _ pkuzel 2004-03-08 17:14:49 UTC

There is some tension between suggested fix for
#40531 and threading document
<http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/OpenAPIs/org/openide/doc-files/threading.html#breakdown>

Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2004-08-17 04:19:05 UTC

Really P3? Any known effect on users?

Comment 2 _ pkuzel 2004-08-17 08:42:54 UTC

According 40531 it can cause deadlocks.

Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2005-01-03 13:11:43 UTC

I guess this won't be fixed for NB4.0 , please evaluate again.

Comment 4 Jiri Rechtacek 2005-01-10 16:34:44 UTC

Lack of documentation.

Comment 5 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-03-17 14:56:36 UTC

I'll modify the document to say it should follow swing threading rules.
