Description _ mihmax 2002-12-18 20:39:39 UTC 
The error is raised on startup in
PropertiesParser.readNextElem (line 194), full
stack trace attached.

Priority is P1 because IDE doesn't start at all.

Ah, I forgot:
JDK 1.4 is OK,
but under JDK 1.3.1 - this weird thing.

I suppose it's simply some 1.4 code up there
Comment 3 _ mihmax 2002-12-18 21:08:50 UTC 
Yeah,
StringBuffer.append(StringBuffer) since 1.4

I wander, how a 1.3 build did this through!

Proposed patch
Comment 5 _ mihmax 2002-12-18 21:14:06 UTC 
Fixed in release341 branch:

Checking in
properties/src/org/netbeans/modules/properties/PropertiesParser.java;
new revision: 1.26.78.1; previous revision: 1.26

-------------------------
Any objections welcome, don't forget to commit into main trunk (if it
wasn't done before ;-)

Max you got it. NetBeans must be compiled by javac 1.3 against JRE 1.3
libraries. It is not NetBeans specifics problem, the same happens to
Apaches Xerces, Jini Rio, ...

I have not applied your patch to trunk as it is workaround that need
to be removed once moving to JRE 1.4. 

However, it's OK to have it in NB Merak :-).
Comment 7 _ mihmax 2003-01-10 13:07:51 UTC 
Why you've not included in into 4.0?
Is 4.0 for 1.4 only? We've had a lot of discussions, and you should
know the result - 4.0 will support both 1.3 and 1.4.
Comment 8 _ pkuzel 2003-01-13 10:24:58 UTC 
It'll support both. But it must be compiled with javac 1.3 to assure it!
Comment 9 pfelenda 2003-01-20 12:48:06 UTC 
Verified
Comment 10 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 14:20:53 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
