Description Scott Violet 2006-04-25 18:45:48 UTC

I tried opening a project, call it X, from a friend. This project depended upon
a project that I already had open, call it Y. When I opened X it sends I have a
refernece problem. Ok, all good so far. When I then try to resolve the reference
problem it says I need Y. When I then click on resolve it open a filechooser.
Huh? It should first allow me to choose one of my existing project, and if
necessary open a file chooser.

can you provide a sample project setup that demomstrates the problem? 

did you friend declare the dependency on Y as a project dependency or a
library/jar dependency?

Seems to me more as valid enhancement or current UI, not defect.

Comment 3 Milan Kubec 2007-02-16 10:56:37 UTC

I meant "... valid enhancement *of* current UI ..."
