Strange behaviour. When module is copied before start to modules directory workspace is added both in IDE and platform. When module is added using Tools->Options->System->Modules->Add Module workspace is added in IDE but NOT in platform. Platform build is done using "ant -Dmodules=" Current dev build, JDK 1.4.1 b20, Linux.
Created attachment 7360 [details] Testing module
Due to handling of project switch all data systems events are ignored when project is not opened. However in case of platform there is no project -> flag is not set -> all changes on winsys layers are ignored. We need to detect such state (no project in system) and not to check isProjectOpen() in such case. Vita is there any way how to do that?
Fixed in main trunk. Modified: core/src/org/netbeans/core/windows/WindowManagerImpl.java r.1.149 core/src/org/netbeans/core/windows/layers/ICFolderImpl.java r.1.14 Listening on changes now works when projects module is not installed or when projects module was installed but no project was opened yet or when projects module is disabled.
I've got the same problem and find a solution: ..\.netbeans\3.4\system\Modules: -> remove mymodule.xml if needed ..\.netbeans\3.4 \system\Projects\Default\system\Windows\Components -> remove mycomponent.settings if needed ..\.netbeans\3.4 \system\Projects\Default\system\Windows\WindowManager -> remove myWorkspace.wswksp_hidden I don't remember exactly the extension for the workspace but there was a _hidden After that, i can reinstall my module :-))
JM I do not think your problem was the same. _hidden file for workspace should not be created. Do you know how did it happen? If your problem is reproducible please file new issue.
OS/Platform independent issue.
issue doesn't apply to new window system - verified
