Create new project bug - still not open?

I'm hoping that this bug will soon be set to "Open" because it's probably the single most complained about bug right now (and for a good reason).

Can we expect it to be squashed before the next EAP build?

It will probably be set to "duplicate".

Ok.. thanks, that's good to know.

Just a pointer though to the IntelliJ team. It would be really good if you could put in a "human readable" description of the bugs that you report. I was looking for all the bugs that had to do with this and I didn't find that one because I entered "new" "project" "exception". It probably wouldn't have helped much with the flow of duplicates but it would make it easier for the rest of us to search for bugs (and therefore duplicates for those of us who at least try to search for them before submitting).

Thanks, Stefan.

If you have a bug that produces a stacktrace the easiest way to search
for duplicates is to search for a line from the stacktrace.

For example with the "new project" stacktrace:
java.lang.Throwable
at com.intellij.openapi.diagnostic.Logger.assertTrue(Logger.java:72)
at com.intellij.openapi.diagnostic.Logger.assertTrue(Logger.java:98)
at com.intellij.openapi.wm.impl.ct.projectOpened(ct.java:276)
at com.intellij.openapi.project.b.d.c(d.java:89)
at com.intellij.openapi.project.b.d.b(d.java:7)
... etc.

The first 2 lines are common, those statements are apparently used all
over IDEA. The third line is a really good one to search for. If I
insert "com.intellij.openapi.wm.impl.ct.projectOpened(ct.java:276)" in
the find box in the tracker I get 11 results (1 bug and 10 duplicates).

Also try to read the comments in bugs. Several people on the forum are
flagging duplicates that they come across there.

I hope this helps somebody,
Bas

That's a good point... should have thought of that myself... :o)
