why no compiler hyperlinks in the output tab?

Alright, thank you. I like the "Mount as new Filesystem" also and

am glad to know that isn't the problem here.

Ok, here's a more detailed scenario, using generic directory names.

I do a "Mount / Version Control / CVS" for d:\a.

I try to use the CVS wizard to select a relative mount point of

d:\a\b1\c1, but it will only select directories one level down: a\b1, a\b2, a\b3, etc.

I can expand b1 to see a\b1\c1, but it won't let me select this 3rd level directory.

Ok, fine.

I finish the CVS mount wizard, expand the tree in the Navigator, and do the

"Mount as new Filesystem" for the "root" of my com tree,

which turns out to be 5 levels deep: a\b1\c1\d1\e1.

I open a Java file in the source editor (a\b1\c1\d1\e1\com\etc\MyFile.java)

and compile it.

The one I just tried produced error hyperlinks, but when I clicked on one,

it opened another copy of MyFile.java in the source editor. This shouldn't

happen! Sometimes I've seen it just produce the output with no

hyperlinks at all.

So my restructuring has left behind some artifact that is confusing the system,

but I can't figure out what it is. I've deleted all .nbattrs, the parser database

files, a root1.shadow (or something like that that was pointing at my old

directory root), the windows subdirectory from my project, and several

other things I can't think of right now. I've started the IDE with a new user

directory and tried this all again.

I guess it's time to move to 3.4 anyway, but I thought there was

probably something here that had a good lesson for me to learn before

I gave up completely.

Thanks for any other insights you can offer.
