Description robertomalatesta 2006-12-17 11:09:26 UTC 
Hi,

Netbeans 5.5 Build 200610171010 EP 20061020 crashes D&D support if
run under JVM 1.6.0-b105.

The first D&D operation emits some X11 console messages:

robi@2[bin]$ ./netbeans
_X11TransSocketOpen: socket() failed for local
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/xp2006:0

Then D&D will silently not work for the entire session.
Shutting down and restarting nb again reproduces the same behaviour.

My solution was to revert to JVM build 1.5.0_06-b05 where everithing seems to work.

This D&D problem (seen from 1.3) has been reported as Java bug 5069437 back in
2004 against Tiger and it randomly resurfaces...

Please ask if I have to resubmit as JVM bug.


Ciao,


Roberto

Hello, you are right it's jdk bug 5069437. I added the link to this issue and
reproduction information you provided. From information in related bug
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6451487 it seems bug may be
already fixed in dolphin JDK release...
Comment 2 robertomalatesta 2006-12-18 12:14:51 UTC 

Please note that bug

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5069437

is not fixed.

The reference above states:
"We should check this as the fix for 6451487 becomes accessible.
Posted Date : 2006-11-01 11:21:34.0"




Related bug http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6451487 is closed
but the problem (in Linux) still persists.

The link to the JVM You edited  into my initial message points to a nonexistant
NB bug not to the JVM bug database and should be corrected to 

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5069437.





Ciao,


Roberto

See my last comment.
Comment 4 David Simonek 2006-12-18 12:45:11 UTC 
Yes, thanks for the corrected link. I know all you wrote and it's true, however
it's also true that we can do nothing more with this bug, as it's not in
NetBeans. So the fair process is to close as "will not fix" (in NetBeans,
because we can't) and link the issue to real JDK problem, as the fix will come
from JDK side.
