<h3>Known bugs</h3>

<p>This section describes all currently known bugs of ECB. The
maintainers of ECB try to fix these bugs as soon as possible.

<h4>Following the source-file link in a help-buffer</h4>

<p>The following bug occurs only in ECB-versions &lt; 1.96 and is fixed
since ECB 1.96!!

<p>This bug only occurs if a compile-window is used and visible!

<p>If you call functions like <code>describe-function</code> which displays a
help-buffer in the compile-window, then you will often get an output
like this in the compile-window:

<br><pre>ecb-activate is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `ecb'.
(ecb-activate)

Activates the ECB...
</pre>

<p>The link to `ecb' is normally a click-able link, means if you click
with the middle-mouse button onto it the file is opened (in our
example <code>ecb.el</code> would be opened.

<p>If you click onto it when the help-buffer is already the current
buffer (i.e. the compile-window is already selected before the click!) 
then all is working fine (i.e. the file is opened in the edit-window),
but if you click onto the link without selecting the compile-window
before (i.e. the edit-window is the current selected window) then the
file is opened in the compile-window which is probably not what you
want. Not a big problem but annoying.

<p>The only available workaround is, first selecting the compile-window
and then clicking onto the link!

<h4>Extra history-entries for JDEE source-buffers</h4>

<p>ECB on occasions creates an extra edit buffer for entries in the
history window. For example, let say there are three entries in the
history window:

<br><pre>Test1
Test2
Test3
</pre>

<p>In the edit window Test1 file is edited. When clicked on Test2 entry
in history, on occasion instead of switching to the existing buffer for
Test2, a new edit buffer is opened for Test2 file. At this point, there
are four entries in the history as follows:

<br><pre>Test2
Test2&lt;2&gt;
Test1
Test3
</pre>
