[build 36] While doing update of java module (with attached java.nbm) IDE restarts with exception (attached ide.log). During next starts this problem doesn't appear.
Created attachment 1225 [details] ide.log
I apologize, but unable to add module to IssueZilla. Write me to send it by e- mail. Thanks.
This seems to consistently happen in general, when B depends on A and uses classes from A and you place a newer version of A in the user modules/ directory. That is serious. I was sure this was tested at some point, but apparently it was not, or was broken more recently. Will investigate.
Created attachment 1230 [details] Patch which may correct the problem - only tested a little bit
Created attachment 1231 [details] Binary patch - save as lib/patches/11709.jar
The patch does appear to solve the stated problem. I created a fresh build (first start). Started it. Invoked auto update, selected new java.nbm. IDE shut down, unpacked java.nbm, restarted and new Java was installed, or at least I assume it was the new version. No errors anywhere. However there could be strange regressions triggered by this--it needs to be tested in more circumstances.
Old fixed bugs that should probably be verified with this patch: #10038, #9943, #9806, #5921, #9542, #5923.
Patch applied in the trunk.
Patch tested in 3.2. Related bugs from commet above verified. Patch seems that works OK.
Fix merged to release32.
Target milestone 3.2
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
