This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When you open some files in the text editor, make some changes, save them and close the editor tab, the file very often remains opened and locked until you press 'garbage collect' on the memory toolbar. As a side effect, external tools, like version control tools, etc. are unable to manipulate the already closed file. This looks as if the file was not properly closed, just the referencing object would be released instead and the finalization closes the file handle at a random time. ----------------------------------------------------- output of 'java -version': java version "1.4.1_01" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_01-b01) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_01-b01, mixed mode) ----------------------------------------------------- contents of ide.cfg: -userdir E:\home\ksg\netbeans34 -jdkhome E:\j2sdk1.4.1_01 -fontsize 14 -J-XX:+UseParallelGC -J-Xmx512m -J-Xss1024k -J-Xms192m -J-Xverify:none
the editor "just" uses a reader provided by core/openide. Reassiging to core.
This might be this issue: http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=29306 Which build do you have? Is it more recent than 5th Dec 2002? If not, I think this is a dup of #29306.
Closing as a dup of #29306. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 29306 ***
Seems to be corrected. Unable to reproduce any more.
