Description Dan Kolar 2007-10-25 11:31:28 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200710250352)
Java: 1.6.0_03; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0_03-b02

1) Open/Create 1st visual web project
2) Toggle breakpoint in Page1.jsp
3) Open/Create 2nd web project
4) Togle breakpoint in index.jsp
5) 2nd Debug project
6) Close 1st project

Now breakpoint in Page1.jsp is still listed.

7) Right-click on breakpoint -> Go to source

Nothing has happen, as project is closed AND normal web project doesn't have Page1.jsp, so it can't be wrongly opened
instead of original file from closed project (as it otherwise happens).
This list should show only breakpoints in opened project.

Martin,

"Breakpoint list lists breakpoints in already closed projects" - is this by design or is it defect just in web debugger?

Thanks, David
Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2007-10-26 11:23:20 UTC 
This is probably by design, Breakpoints window shows just all breakpoints which are set, regardless of currently opened
projects. The breakpoints are global, associated with IDE's user dir, not with the project. This is something we might
change in the future, IMHO the breakpoints should be associated with the project.

We already have an issue for that, I'll try to find it...
Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2007-10-26 11:49:31 UTC 
I've found several related enhancements. Issue #42266, issue #72560 and issue #101195.
You may resolve this as a duplicate of some of these.
Comment 4 David Konecny 2007-10-26 12:51:47 UTC 
Thanks Martin, I thought so.

As you are surely aware there is lot of subtleties which complicates it when it comes to storing breakpoints in project
rather than in userdir. Eg. having open project A which uses closed project B you still want to step through the source
code of project B and setting a breakpoint in project B would be stored in project A or (*closed*) project B? If you
store it in project A then what happens if there is project C which is also using project B and you start debugging it?
Perhaps concept of *main* project could be used but then if project A is main and you start debugging project C what
should happen. Trickyyyy.
