BUG: Extending JDialog error in design view

Question

I extended JDialog to create a custom Dialog, then when I extend the CustomDialog to create a Dialog in Jdeveloper Design mode it actualy creates the popup dialog instead of the design mode for it (ie it actually renders the final popup as a seperate popup, which would be a really cool feature because you can actually use the popup to test it, but it means you can't edit it with the gui designer)
OS - Suse 9.3
Oracle IDE - 10.1.3.3412
Java Platform - 1.5.0_06
Here is some sample code:
package org.cms.custom.swing;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
public class CustomDialog extends JDialog
public CustomDialog()
package org.cms.screen;
import org.cms.custom.swing.CustomDialog;
public class TestDialog extends CustomDialog
public TestDialog()
So you go to design mode for TestDialog and it pops up the dialog.........(you may need to build first).....

Answer 1

The above code does reproduce the error. I reduced it to that code to make sure that it wasn't any of my code doing it and when I made the 2 classes above and go to design mode for the second one it pops up the dialog. You can cut and paste the code as is. The implementation is irrelevant, its Inheritance of a class that extends JDialog that is causing the problem.
You need to compile the classes, close them, then reopen the second one in design view for the popup to happen.
