Description markuszeller 2012-02-03 08:47:05 UTC

When I assocciate some files with NB like .js or .php to have NB my favourite text editor, doubleclick them, then NB opens or comes to front as excpected. But, the "opened" file is not open in NB. When I drag it in then it works fine.

Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_29

Patch - registering ApplicationListener

Patch that registers com.apple.eawt.ApplicationListener, but handleOpenFile is never called.

Comment 2 Jiri Rechtacek 2012-05-25 16:32:33 UTC

The patch works just in partly. Once applied I can associate a extension with NetBeans IDE and then it opens the IDE on open action on the file and then opens it in editor area. But it doesn't work if IDE is currently running. In that case it only pops IDE in the front and doesn't open anything.
