Description _ rkubacki 2001-04-24 09:14:37 UTC 
New from Template wizard has reference to browser once it is created. It means 
that if the module that provides this browser is uninstalled not all resources 
are released.
Comment 1 Jan Chalupa 2001-05-06 08:15:00 UTC 
Target milestone -> 3.3
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2001-11-26 11:38:59 UTC 
Isn't this more like P4? Uninstalling a browser module is not so
common and the impact does not sound terrible.
Comment 3 Jan Chalupa 2001-11-27 13:04:47 UTC 
Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Comment 4 mslama 2002-05-13 11:07:17 UTC 
Is it still issue? Currently template wizard has reference to
org.openide.awt.HtmlBrowser. It is openide component so it does not
depend on any module.
Comment 5 _ rkubacki 2002-05-13 12:30:21 UTC 
HTML browser component in OpenAPI is design flaw. But if wizard caches
the browser you can't switch it to another one. (unless you have
hard-wired Swing browser - then it would be OK to close this issue.)
Comment 6 _ ttran 2002-06-14 12:43:29 UTC 
I think turning on/off browser provider module is pretty rare.  And we
don't have any such module anymore.  Even if this happens everything
should work, just a resource is not released somewhere.

This is not the fault of template wizard that it caches
org.openide.awt.HtmlBrowser.  The wizard itself is cached.  That's the
problem.

Anyway I suggest we won't fix this bug.
