Yep, this is a bug, below is a patch to PtolemyII2.0.1 Basically, what happened is that in the devel tree, there is a facility that allows the user to show the name of the port by right clicking on a port and selecting 'Customize Name' The Rename port window has a 'Show Name' check box for whether the name is displayed. Unfortunately, at the time we did the code split, there was a problem where the name was displayed twice, so we removed this facility from the release branch. (I think the problem is now fixed in the devel tree, but folding that change into the release tree would be very difficult.) When we pulled out the 'Show Name' facility we introduced this bug that you are seeing now. I'll add this bug and fix to the list of limitations at http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII2.0/limitations.htm and see about creating a new tar file and Windows installer. cxh@DOPLAP03 /cygdrive/c/ptII2.0.2/ptolemy/actor/gui $ cvs diff -c RenameConfigurer.java Index: RenameConfigurer.java =================================================================== RCS file: /home/cvs/ptII/ptolemy/actor/gui/RenameConfigurer.java,v retrieving revision 1.10.2.1 diff -c -r1.10.2.1 RenameConfigurer.java *** RenameConfigurer.java 2002/04/08 16:49:17 1.10.2.1 --- RenameConfigurer.java 2002/09/11 15:42:29 *************** *** 125,131 **** moml.append(newName); moml.append("\"/>"); // Remove or show name. ! boolean showName = booleanValue("Show name"); if (_object instanceof Port) { if (showName) { moml.append("<property name=\"_showName\" " --- 125,140 ---- moml.append(newName); moml.append("\"/>"); // Remove or show name. ! boolean showName = false; ! if (!(_object instanceof Port)) { ! // FIXME: There is a bug in diva that results in the ! // port name being displayed twice if Show Name is selected. ! // John Reekie thinks it is because there is one too many ! // Listeners.
