Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.0.1 (Build 200801291616) Java: 1.6.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b19 System: Linux version 2.6.20-16-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Userdir: /space/netbeans/userdirs/nb601-HO -I'm writing an html document in IDE. I'm also editing a java source code. And using copy/paste frequently -after a while (hours) the editor (but the whole IDE as well) doesn't accept any key. I can select a text by mouse, I can use menus with mouse. But keaybord is dead. -restart helps
If it affects the whole IDE the editor is unlikely to be at fault.
Jara found reproducible scenario on Ubuntu 8.04 with latest builds -be in a document in editor -press CTRL+SHIFT+N and the quickly ESC ->keyboard doesn't work in the whole IDE. User have to restart to be able to use it again reassigning to AWT/Swing however I'm not sure about the category at all.
This issue seems to be OS specific - I cannot reproduce on Win XP nor Mac OS X.
I saw similar error in the past - and it always turned to be JDK error. I'm getting tired as nearly all Swing bugs are assigned to me. That's nothing personal, we just have poor system here and I feel like victim. I raised this issue several times but nothing changed. I don't know what to do with such error - if I enter it as JDK bug with such info, it will get closed immediately with request for ten lines test case. So perhaps I could be starring at it in IZ and we will have NO-GO for 6.1.
Of course I can't reproduce on my Ubuntu 7.10.
lhasik, please run netbeans with: -J-Dorg.netbeans.core.windows.ShortcutAndMenuKeyEventProcessor.level=0 which will enable logging of key presses. Do some typing in the editor and watch how logs are being printed. Then reproduce error and try to type more. I would bet that nothing will be printed after bug appears - that would prove that error is in JDK, because key events simply stop coming. And then you can file JDK bug. passing to mslama, who has ubuntu 8.04 and can try to reproduce.
We did some tests with lhasik with following results: lhasik can successfully reproduce issue after say 30-50 repeats of steps mentioned above. We had logging enabled and it stopped to log as soon as bug occurred - which proves that bug is in JDK, not in NetBeans, as all key events simply stopped coming from JDK. Issue is similar as http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=97249 with some important exceptions: - it is *not* about MToolkit here - only restart helps, no additional window opening neither window system reset helps. related JDK bugs http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6598651 http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6465038 I suggest to close as wontfix, because there is no chance to fix or workaround this on Netbeans side IMHO. However it would be great to have it fixed on JDK side, so more often reproducible scenario is badly wanted...
Lukas do you have compiz enabled or not? (Desktop effects.)
System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects are set to None
Reproducible for me on Ubuntu 7.10, no visual effects, JDK 1.6.0_05.
mkubec, how frequently? If you can reproduce frequently, it would be good to enable JDK logging to send Oleg some info what happens when bug occurs. I think info about logging is attached in 97249, thanks.
Well, I thought it's more frequently than it really is :-) I will try to reproduce and possibly provide some logging info.
I cannot find a way to reliably reproduce the problem, but it happens couple times in a day and it's very annoying - you need to restart IDE to continue in your work.
Closing as WONTFIX as it is JDK issue. Any additional info is welcome esp. how to reproduce in less steps.
Workaround that works for me is to click another tab in editor and back, then it works again.
