Description Kevin Grigorenko CLA 2011-12-23 14:21:41 EST 
I can't tell if this is a timing condition or what, but sometimes when expanding a tree node, the "updating..." child will show up, but when it finishes, the parent node collapses and you have to expand the parent again to get the children. I can reproduce this consistently when re-opening a large dump, then doing "Show objects by class," and picking something common such as java.lang.String, and then expanding the first row.

Proposed fix

I'm not sure if this is the right solution, but it does fix the problem for me and doesn't seem to cause any side effects.

What seems to happen is that after disposing/removing all child items, the parent gets its "expanded" flag reset (presumably since there are no children, it can't be expanded). So I just save that off and reset it after the real children are added.

I've found this hard to reproduce on Windows 7, even with a delay. It might have happened once. The fix seems sensible however, so I'll apply it.
