Description Jaroslav Tulach 2000-03-17 02:21:23 UTC 
Hi Dafe,
as we discussed before, it would be nice to modify the window system to work when the IDE is not initialized and the main window is not there.

1. Let TopComponent work even there is no main window. Could be possible to add NbTopManager.createMainWindow method that could return null and use this method instead of new MainWindow (). Of course
it is necesssary to modify Main to return new MainWindow.
You can access NbTopManager by calling NbTopManager.get ().

2. Do not initialize the workspaces when somebody asks for WindowManager (maybe only when there is  a manager that returns null for main window?)

[Dafe] Now solved using IL_xxxx constants
