Description Michel Graciano 2005-08-07 17:35:48 UTC 
Hi guys,
1) when I edit my project.xml without open the UI properties editor for NetBeans
Modules, everything works really nice. The problem I found with new wizard for
creation for wrappers modules, and I adding new jars to classpath and its didn't
works. Than, I restart the IDE and change again, than all works.
2) This problem occur with jars list, e.g., if I add new jar to
release/modules/ext folder, the target don't copy the new jars to cluster folder.

1. Please file separate issue reports for separate problems.

2. Please attach instructions to reproduce your problem, since I cannot guess
what exactly you are doing. Given a particular build you downloaded (name it!),
and a fresh user directory, I need explicit steps I can follow to see the
problem happen - describe what you observed vs. what you expected.
Comment 2 Michel Graciano 2005-08-09 03:13:58 UTC 
The problem is it:
When I edit my project.xml by hand, after already opened the visual project
editor, the modifications are lost, because the project ui editor overwrite my
modifications, but if don't occur before I open the editor.

How this occur:
I am developing a wrapper module, and I forgot some jars, that I add by hand
these, and, some time after, I open the visual project editor, so my extra jars
disappear. So, doing some tests, I restart the IDE, than I see that, if I edit
my project.xml before open the editor, editor recognize my modifications. So I
think that there is some cache that didn't are updated after project.xml is
saved, like other project.xml for others project types, like Java Project.
This occur to jars added in release/modules/ext folder, where the ant task don't
copy new jars for the cluster folder.

I think that it's the same problem, because I post in same issue.

NetBeans version: NetBeans IDE 4.2 daily build 200508041800

Thanks for your attention and hope has answered your doubt.

Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2005-08-09 06:20:12 UTC 
Copying of JARs from $basedir/release/ to the cluster folder is independent of
the IDE's manipulation of project.xml, so there are probably two separate bugs
involved.

Again, if you can reproduce the problem, please provide some steps to do so;
otherwise it is much less likely the bug will get fixed promptly.
Comment 4 Michel Graciano 2005-08-14 20:54:32 UTC 
Follow the steps like above:
1- Open the visual project properties editor, so change any public package to
true/false and press ok;
2- Open the project metadata file, than, public packages is there, than exclude
some this public packages and save the file;
3- Open the visual project properties editor again, and see that the
modifications in project.xml don't appear in visual editor, where appear like
last time that you close this dialog. if you change any other project
information, the project.xmlo file will be recreated with exclude public packages.

I hope to be clear.

Martin please evaluate...
Comment 6 Martin Krauskopf 2005-08-15 20:38:59 UTC 
Yes, you are absolutely right. I forgot to refresh project.xml information
during solving the issue 61242. Good catch! Thanks. Started
