Comment 3 Peter Zavadsky 2001-10-11 15:10:48 UTC 
Problem is with a node of type:
com.sun.forte4j.modules.dbmodel.nodes.TableElementNode
its getName() method returns null what's illegal, it's displayName
returns valid value.

Reassigned.
Comment 4 Peter Zavadsky 2001-10-11 15:38:08 UTC 
I updated NodeOp so the exception thrown now more clearly describes
the problem and also points to the original node if the node is of
FilterNode instance. Now if you try out the issue you'll see also the
TableElementNode as original to the Filter one to see there is the
problem.

Change:
openide/../nodes/NodeOp.java [1.29]
Comment 5 Radko Najman 2001-10-12 11:13:48 UTC 
It is not a Database Explorer bug but Database Schema bug. Closing as 
INVALID and file bug report against Database Schema module in Bugtraq.
Comment 7 Martin Schovanek 2003-03-12 14:04:45 UTC 
VERIFIED
Comment 8 Quality Engineering 2003-06-30 17:18:06 UTC 
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
