Following is the exception that is printed out on the console... but this is a bug in JFileChooser in the JDK 1.4.0_01 and not really anything that you can do about this.
We had this bug ourselves and found some discussion on java.sun.com about it. This is fixed in JDK 1.4.1 beta. http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=220083 [ 26389] ERROR - com.intellij.ide.r - Error during dispatching of java.awt.event.MouseEvent[MOUSE_RELEASED,(32,80),button=1,modifiers=Button1, clickCount=1] on frame0 [ 26389] ERROR - com.intellij.ide.r - IntelliJ IDEA (Ariadna) 3.0 Build #634 [ 26389] ERROR - com.intellij.ide.r - JDK: 1.4.0_01 [ 26389] ERROR - com.intellij.ide.r - VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM [ 26389] ERROR - com.intellij.ide.r - Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
