Our module adds a filesystems tab to the Debugger Window mode. The problem (as recorded in bugtraq 4649580) is that for users who use the JPDA Debugger, they often find that when they switch to the Debugging workspace, the filesystems tab is on top, so they have to click on the Debugger tab to make the debugging window visible. This is easily fixed by the following patch: specify an active top component of "DebuggerWindow" in the mode-definition for the debugger window container. This will have no harm in the case where there is no additional filesystem tab, and it will ensure that the debugger window is on top by default for the case where it is present. --- debugger.wsmode 9 Jan 2002 10:12:10 -0000 1.5.6.1 +++ debugger.wsmode 10 Apr 2002 23:57:46 -0000 @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ <ui-type type="any" > <relative-bounds x="0" y="0" width="35" height="100" /> <frame type="window" constraints="left" state="normal" /> - <container type="tabbed" > + <container type="tabbed" active-tc="DebuggerWindow" > </container> <icon url="nbresboot:/org/netbeans/core/resources/debuggerView.gif" /> <other defined-by="module" mode-state="visible" /> @@ -14,9 +14,9 @@ <ui-type type="mdi" > <relative-bounds x="0" y="0" width="35" height="100" /> <frame type="desktop" constraints="left" state="normal" /> - <container type="tabbed" > + <container type="tabbed" active-tc="DebuggerWindow" > </container> <icon url="nbresboot:/org/netbeans/core/resources/debuggerView.gif" /> <other defined-by="module" mode-state="visible" /> </ui-type>
