Description nouar38 2007-09-12 18:59:15 UTC
NB 6.0 200709111200: IDE-Help for Wizard "New Enterprise Application with Existing Sources: Name and Location"
can read:

<<In the Name and Location page, you have to set the following properties:
Location. Specifies where all your sources are found.
Project Name. Specifies the display name of the project. This name is also used to create the project folder.
Project Folder. Specifies the location of the folder where you want to store the project metadata and source code.
>>

Last sentense Project Folder: to store the project metadata and source code, is confusing for the end-user
as he may understand like me, that source code is copied to the project folder which is not the case when the project is
created.

The source code tree is left in the Location directory.
Comment 1 Kenneth Ganfield 2007-10-24 17:13:24 UTC
updated topic to remove reference to source code.
topic now says:
Project Folder. Specifies the location of the folder where you want to store the project metadata.

does the reporter think the wording needs to be clearer and specifically state the source files are not copied?
I think it should be ok now without the ref to source code.

marking issue as fixed
Comment 3 nouar38 2007-11-05 14:23:46 UTC
