Opening an array of primitives (byte[], float[], etc) in the Variable pane of the Debugger window takes an excessively long time. I have tried reducing the array display length to as little as 10 (down from 100), but in all cases Forte gives me the hourglass than goes away thinking. I've let it go as long as half an hour before giving up and force quitting (ctrl-alt-del). I am using the latest prerelease of Forte CE 2.0 I am running Sun JDK 1.3 and Windows 98 on a 733MHz PIII with 256MB RAM. Forte gets 128MB of RAM. No other programs are running.
This problem was caused by the fact that Forte loaded the whole array even if it then showed only several items. The fix will immediately appear only in the main trunk of cvs. Check into boston branch will be done after beta.
Reopenned due to wrong resolution.
Fixed.
Verified in Forte for Java 2.0, Netbeans (build 140) and Pilsen (build 010308).
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
