Description mutex 2003-02-27 05:23:10 UTC 
Execution of the CVS diff command (Gui style) from
the Explorer View right click menu produces a
window with no contents.

The caption on the empty diff output window reads:

CVS Output [?] 

I tried entering different combinations of
Revision number to generate output, but to no avail.



Steps to repeat:

Select CVS file from Explorer view, I select a CVS
object

Can you please provide us with version of JDK you use ? Thanks. Can
you attach some screenshot ? I know we had problems like this in the
past ...

I have 3.4.1 (SDI mode) on linux, jdk 1.4.1 and it happens to me
sometimes as well, the only thing that helps is to restart. It's
completely random AFAIK, happens imho more frequently with cvs log
then with diff.

Comment 4 mutex 2003-02-27 21:58:30 UTC 
Milos is correct.

As it turns out I restarted the IDE, executed CVS diff and correct
output appeared.

I think the error may be related to adding a CVS Filesystem, and 
accessing it without restarting Netbeans, maybe a first use
initialisation problem. 

My java version is:

java version "1.4.0_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0_02-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0_02-b02, mixed mode)

I have attached a snapshot.

Regards,
Mark.

PS. The product is great!

Comment 6 Martin Entlicher 2003-03-06 18:09:09 UTC 
This is probably some problem of NetBeans' window system. It was
already reported in the past, see issue #26811.

If the problem persists in current builds, please reopen that issue.

Upgraded to 3.5 RC1 and diff appears ok.
