Description Milan Kubec 2004-12-16 12:29:08 UTC

[dev-200412151900]

Broken reference on compilation cp. should be
visible under Libraries nodes so user would be
able to see the br. ref. and possibly correct the
library from there.

Comment 1 Milan Kubec 2005-03-07 11:17:59 UTC

Correction of the library would be either removing the library or
opening Libray manager as it's done when user selects 'Resolve' action
in Resolve Reference Problems dialog.

Comment 2 dcooper2003 2006-02-24 17:50:05 UTC

If the broken reference is the result of an intended removal of a library it can
only be corrected by going into the project properties -> libraries and removing
the reference.  This, however, is not permanent.  When NetBeans is restarted,
the broken reference is back and has to be removed from the libraries again. 
The fix broken reference dialog does not give the option of permanent removal of
the library as a solution, as noted above.
