Description moizd 2004-11-17 03:32:51 UTC

When ever i get an exception, the pop-up window is
too aggressive and is probably enable repeatedly.

When i alt-tab to a different app like notepad to
copy and paste the exception text, i can't do it
because netbeans keeps bring the exception message
to the foreground. even when netbeans has the
focus, it is really hard to get rid of the
exception pop-up. The only consistent way to get
rid of it is to close the editor window or select
a different node in the files/project views.

Please attach the <userdir>/var/log/messages.log file, or provide the
build number and the exception you're getting. It's impossible to tell
what's going on without additional information.

The exception dialog is suppressed in the recent 4.0 builds, so it
shouldn't pop up anymore. However, re-occurring exception still might
be a problem.

This is a known bug in JDK 1.5.0 (#5089077). The workaround for 
NetBeans is to avoid using the Swing browser and use the native web 
browser instead. For details see issue #49249
