Re: HEADS-UP: Incompatible change in Looks API

Hi again,

there seem to be few complications with Looks API (as usually) and it 
seems that we are unable to do all planned incompatible changes at once. 
That's why I decided to temporarily fork the implementation of Looks API 
and redirect all modules in projects build to use this forked version. 
Then we will be able to merge incompatible changes which will be done in 
original Looks API one by one and adapt modules in projects build. This 
is the temporary solution and will be removed as soon as possible.

 From now all modules in projects build use Looks API from 
<CVS>/projects/ide/netbeans/modules/autoload/openide-looks.jar which is 
built during the build of projects/ide module. The original 
openide/looks module is still part of the build, but it's not used when 
running Netbeans IDE.

If you have questions or problems ask here.

Thanks for your understanding,
-vita
