[kepler-dev] Help with Pop Up Box in Kepler

[Derik Barseghian]

Hi Subhav,

 From what I understand, you have two suites, UserDecision and UserIp,  
each with an actor of the same name inside each suite. I just ran a  
test, creating your UserIp actor, instantiating it in one suite, and  
then exporting it as a kar that includes the class file. I then  
imported the actor with Import Archive. Searching for and dragging the  
actor from the library works at this point. I quit kepler, then ran a  
change-to to switch to another suite, and launched kepler. If you  
search for the actor in the library at this point, it will show up,  
but will give an error if you drag it to canvas. Also, if you try to  
import the kar, you'll receive errors. I'm going to file this as a bug  
if one doesn't already exist. One solution for now, until we fix the  
problem, is to run ant clean-cache before you change-to to your second  
suite. You should then be able to import the kar in your second suite.  
This should also work if instead of a second suite you're using Kepler  
1.0, but let me know if it doesn't.

Thanks,
Derik
