Description David Konecny 2007-11-06 10:55:19 UTC 
ProjectWebModule.getDocumentBase shows message box when doc base folder does not exist. Similarly behave couple of other
methods - just search for usage of showErrorMessage in the class.

This class implements WebModuleImplementation and it is highly inappropriate to show any message box from the
implementation. These methods are "service" methods which can be called any time and as a result if doc base is broken
the message box keeps pop up as a result of IDE actions like mouse hovering etc.

The problem is that just removing message box we do not have any way how to warn user that project configuration needs
to be amended. Ideally this should be done as part of broken references handling. On the other hand if you follow
suggestion in message box and just fix the problem everything will be OK.

Since no users have complained about the dialog I am resolving this issue as later.

This seems like it got lost in a sun rif shuffle.

Valid issue.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.
