Description Jaroslav Tulach 2000-07-13 14:09:19 UTC 
Serialiation of ExplorerManager is not backward compatible with its postfcs
version. The manager must be able to read (or at least consume and ignore) the
previous serialization format otherwise we will not be able to read project
files from previous version.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2000-07-13 16:08:59 UTC 
I changed the serialVersionUID so that it can be made compatible later. But it
will require some effort, hopefully this will make it into the build at some
point but not immediately. The format is substantially different now and not
trivial to convert.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2000-07-14 11:12:59 UTC 
Jarda says it is now fixed in boston branch; he will merge onto trunk as well.
Lightly tested only.
