Description Mike Schilling 2001-05-03 18:48:17 UTC 
This is a change from earlier behavior, caused by the fix to 11141 (version 1.55 
of DataObject.java).

Suppose an object serializes a reference to a DataObject, and then the 
prmary file for the DataObject is deleted.  It is now impossible to deserialize 
that object, since an exception during deserialization is not in 
general recoverable.

See the discussion at http://www.netbeans.org/www-nbdev/msg06398.html for more 
details.

Fixed in main trunk.
Comment 2 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 16:16:11 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
