Description Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-05-06 10:13:31 EDT 
When running a self-hosted session, some of the text in context menus does not 
appear.  The context menus are those created when clicking on a resource in the 
package explorer or resource explorer.  The text does not appear on drop-down 
menu items. 
 
This only appears to happen on self-hosted sessions, and has not appeared in 
any of the integration builds.  Stranger still, the text will appear on some 
items the first time they are displayed, and then disappear the second time. 
 
I know of changes in ExternalActionManager.ICallback which might have affected 
text.  However, these changes were introduced before the integration build this 
week, so I'm not sure how they could only occur in self-hosted sessions. 
 
I have only seen this happens on Windows XP machines, which makes it even more 
curious.  Perhaps a problem in SWT?

It's not only the context menus - they're disappearing from the menu bar as
well.  Also, the items that disappear do so consistantly.  Ie: it's often the
New item on the context menu, the Update item on the Help menu, pretty much all
of the actions on the Search menu in the Java perspective.
