renaming a welcome html file does not update web.xml
Comment 1 Jayashri Visvanathan 2009-01-07 22:21:31 UTC
reproducible
Comment 2 Matthew Bohm 2009-01-14 01:23:18 UTC
My understanding is that tspiva owns refactoring. tspiva, please reassign back if this is wrong.
Comment 3 Petr Jiricka 2009-09-17 21:00:39 UTC
This is not implemented, so I would say this is an enhancement request, right Marku?
Comment 4 Vince Kraemer 2009-11-05 01:01:18 UTC
I do not see how this could be considered useful...

There isn't a 1-to-1 mapping between the name of a file in a web app and the values listed in the welcome-file-list....

Consider an app that has 

/index.jsp
/foo/index.jsp

and a welcome-file entry of index.jsp...

the welcome file list will be consulted when I try to access
http://h:p/context-root/ AND http://h:p/context-root/foo/

Now... I go into NB and change the name of /foo/index.jsp to /foo/bogus.jsp... I do not think that we want to automagically change the welcome-file-list 
to have an entry for bogus.jsp instead of index.jsp... do we?

At best, this is an enhancement. 
Comment 5 Marek Fukala 2009-11-05 08:34:21 UTC
If you are able to switch on/off the particular cases in the refactoring preview, then it would make sense probably. In
any case this sounds like a low priority feature.
Comment 6 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 08:54:32 UTC
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
