Description tprochazka 2007-07-31 08:41:50 UTC
I know, that I can use Netbeans project folder as dependency for my project, Netbeans then automatically compile it if 
this is necessary.

However, I think, that would be also great to add Netbeans project folder as library in Library Manager. It more 
comfortable choose library from Library Manager, and then repeatedly search project on the disk. Now when I create 
library from Netbeans project, I must manually select source, javadoc, dist jar file and I must manually build it when 
source code is changed (vie SVN or CVS update).

My idea is add another type to New Library dialog, for example "Netbeans project folder". Netbeans will be 
automatically add jar, javadoc and source to corresponding boxes and will be keep it and run build when it is necessary.
