It's not just about who is working on Windows, either, but whether they can reproduce the problem. While my primary development platform is Ubuntu, I've got development and testing machines on Windows and macOS. I've tried multiple times to reproduce this, including using the automated test in that issue (Ken, please look at that too). My system simply never shows the problem. I think Michael is right to suggest a race condition is in play here. That enabling fine logging mitigates the issue for many would suggest timing. However, the logging also has side effects, which eagerly acquires the data in the clipboard, which could also be affecting the outcome. Also, let's not assume that this is unique to NetBeans or even a bug in NetBeans itself! https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JBR-5980/ Best wishes, Neil --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
