[dev mar 07] After opening a DTD from an entity catalog using the View item and closing it again, a message is left in the status bar. This is inconsistent with opening regular files; the status bar should be cleared when it is open.
It looks like a bug in CloneableEditorSupport. Does it properly handle protected java.lang.String messageOpened()?
Its not openning, but openned messagel left on the status bar. The messageOpenned is working fine. Just it seems the default impl (see DataEditorSupport#messageOpenned and the bundle) is empty string so the status is cleared after there are other sources opened. Probably also DTD from entity catalog should follow the "rule". If it si the rule or it was made accidentally (cleared item value in bundle, is question for UI,) but I think it seems to be a rule, thus reassign it to the XML to return empty string from their messageOpenned impl.
It is not rule, see: xxx.java finished. after compilation xxx.yyy saved! after save xxx module instaled. after enabling module xxx project open. after switching project etc. Assigning to UI to define proper rules and enforce it.
Should be solved by new status indication.
It is not XML module bug.
Target milestone was changed from 'not determined' to TBD.
Some years ago, the status bar was changed to fade out any messages after a while.
