Bug 87244

Moving this to 5.5.1.

Marking it as P2, since this blocks 87369.

What in particullar do you need to access in the module. Is it just current
public packages content? If so, just add yourself to the list of friends. If you
need something more, let me know what and we can discuss to possibly make
something more public.

Now we have:

<friend-packages>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.mobility.end2end</friend>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.web.core.syntax</friend>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.xml.lexer</friend>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.xml.retriever</friend>
   <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.api</package>
   <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax</package>
</friend-packages>

Marek, I did this exercise. I mean declared xdm and schema/completion as friends
in xml/text-edit. Base netbeans (which includes xdm) builds. However
xml/schema/completion doesn't. I believe, that is because it is in a different
cluster. It is part of Enterprise Pack modules.

NB Ent Pack, heavily rely on the classes in org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax
package. Ideally we would like this package to be declared as public. And we
dont have to have impl dependency, nor friend.

Samaresh, I belive that having a friend dependencty between clusters works. We
use the same for example from html/editor/lib (IDE cluster) to web/jspsyntax
(J2EE cluster) - web/jspsyntax is a friend of html/editor/lib.

I do not recomend to create the org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax package
public at least because of the classes from this package should be removed soon
and replaced by their lexer-based counterparts. 

I'm sorry, I think I found the problem. We're working on 5.5.1 codebase and I
see this:

 <friend-packages>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.web.core.syntax</friend>
   <friend>org.netbeans.modules.e2e.end2end</friend>
   <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.api</package>
 </friend-packages>

I do not see org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax listed here and I think this
is the problem. If you could make that change, I would be able to add xdm and
schema/completion as friend modules.

Feel free to add it to the project metadata in 5.5.1

<package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax</package>

Samaresh, did you added the module to the friends list? Is this solution enoght?
If so, please close the issue, otherwise let me know.

Just to let you know that we needed org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax.dom as
well.

Here is how the declaration look like:
<friend-packages>
  <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.api</package>
  <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax</package>
  <package>org.netbeans.modules.xml.text.syntax.dom</package>
  <friend>org.netbeans.modules.e2e.end2end</friend>
  <friend>org.netbeans.modules.web.core.syntax</friend>
  <friend>org.netbeans.modules.xml.schema.completion</friend>
  <friend>org.netbeans.modules.xml.xdm</friend>
</friend-packages>
