Tells no diff, but clearly there is none

Description Peter Larsen CLA 2007-07-19 10:25:12 EDT
Build ID: I20070625-1500

I changed a java file and wanted to see the total changes. I did that by right click and compare with -> latest head.

Eclipse told me there was no structural differences even though there clearly are some. See attachment - added to fields variable.

Repeating the operation did not help, but after closing the compare tab it helped and showed the changes as expected.

Is this reproducable?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
