Bug 234198

Summary: Project Properties Configurations should have a way to start from a copy of an existing configuration
Product: projects Reporter: swpalmer <swpalmer>
Component: MavenAssignee: Milos Kleint <mkleint>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED    
Severity: normal    
Priority: P3

Description swpalmer 2013-08-09 15:43:01 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3.1 (Build 201306052037)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_25
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.25-b01

For now I have a Maven-based project and I need to make a configuration for running the project with different settings.  After setting up the run parameters it would be great if I could just make a new configuration based on an existing one.  That way all I have to do is change a few small things rather than re-enter everything, like: main class, working directory, VM parameters, etc.
