The changes i made to the bean are not being written to the file. in
OtrunkCurnit I have this method:
public void saveCurnit(File file) throws FileNotFoundException,
Exception {
if( otDb == null)
throw new Exception("Curnit has not been initialized");
otControllerService.saveRealObject(rootBean, otrunkRoot);
otViewerHelper.saveOTDatabase(otDb, new FileOutputStream(file));
}
i put a br point in it and checked out the rootBean. its got all the
changes i made to it.
however the file that comes out is still the same as the original. the
question is; would this be a problem with the controllers or another
step i need to do before saving? i checked in my controllers in pas-
otrunk project. check them out.
what i am going to do is write a test. but in the mean time off hand
any thoughts of the problem?
