There is introduced new API in 3.4, Specifically in TopComponent two protected methods: componentShowing, and componetnHidden Problem is in CloneableEditor (subclass of TopComponent), the component showing method is overriden the way: public void componentShowing() ... instead of: protected void componentShowing() ... Is it possible to make the change into 3.4?
Created attachment 6962 [details] Patch
I want to point out, I cannot apply the patch just into [trunk], since the method is introduced first time just in [release34].
Well, this looks like really serious mistake and thank you Peter for finding this before we got to FCS. The problem is that if we does not fix the bug now, it will appear in a release and becase we want to keep the API compatible, it will stay there forever. The fix is simple and verification of all possible regressions also - if we can compile NetBeans, than there is no regression. That is why I approve that fix suggest others to also do so.
I agree, this is important to fix before release.
Fixed in both [trunk] and [release34] trunk: openide/../text/CloneableEditor.java [1.47] release34: openide/../text/CloneableEditor.java [1.42.16.2]
