Build ID: I20070621-1340 Steps To Reproduce: 1. Alt-click on a folder with hidden content in the current context 2. double click on one of the grey files 3. It deosn't open 4. Go back to Step 1., and it opens on the second attempt More information:
I cannot reproduce this. does this happen every time or intermittently? If every time, could you describe a minimal example of how you can reproduce this (e.g. which kinds of elements you're clicking and in which view).
I've been noticing this occasionally too. Don't have scenario to reproduce, but I have working sets shown at the root of my Package Explorer.
I also have Working Sets as the top level view in my Package Explorer, but changing that doesn't make any difference. I'm not entirely sure, but I think maybe .java source files behave OK, and the problem is with .xml / .jsp / .properties files. Or then again maybe not. It might just be to do with the speed at which Mylyn rolls up its folder when you click on a greyed-out item - if you're a bit slow on the draw then a double click turns in to a single click because the item you selected has been moved up the screen when the folder rolls up. Actually i just tried it a few times and I can always get the first item in a folder in one go, but the others are variable (more often than not taking two attempts). So maybe it is just the speed?
Will keep an eye out for this and investigate. If anyone encounters clues to reproduce please post.
I think this is 100% deterministic - I can never open a grey file on the first attempt except the first one in a folder after Alt-Click. Does no-one else have this problem?
I still cannot reproduce it. It could be weirdness related to the viewer not registering the first selection. What exact OS, Mylyn, and Eclipse version are you using. Also, what is the state of the context when you do this (e.g. totally blank, can reproduce with one interest file in a directory and trying to Alt+click to make another interesting).
To me it is happening after I work on task for some time and context have some stuff in it (maybe task even deactivated/activated few times before). I am running last dev builds on windows and Eclipse 3.3. What I've noticed that folder I am alt-clicking to is usually gray when that happpens.
Eclipse: Version: 3.3.0 Build id: I20070621-1340 Mylyn: 2.0.0.v20070627-1400 (all the Mylyn components appear to have that version number). OS: Windows XP. I can reproduce from a new task with blank context: * open a source file with Ctrl-Shift-T * Alt-Click on its enclosing (grey) package * Double click on one of the other classes in teh package (not the first one) * Package rolls up and the new class is visible in package explorer, but is not opened in editor * Double-click on it again and it opens in editor.
Dave: this should be fixed in tomorrow's weekly build, and it would be great if you could try it out. The fix was made as part of the work on bug 208702.
