Description hansabbink 2008-02-22 08:21:46 UTC 
In NB 5.* using a shortcut to NetBeans with "--open ." as the start-up parameters would open the project in the 
directory in which the shortcut was placed. Very usefull, because if you have a lot of directories with projects, 
dropping the same shortcut in each of those would give you a simple way of starting netbeans on that project.
In NB 6.0 this mechanism no longer works. The "--open ." is now interpreted as "open the directory in which NetBeans 
is installed".
Comment 1 hansabbink 2008-02-22 08:23:16 UTC 
Sorry, the additional submission erroneously shows "linux" as the operating system. That should be "XP".
Comment 2 Lukas Hasik 2008-02-22 09:49:29 UTC 
Reassigning to Tomas who is maintaining the launcher
Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2008-02-22 10:02:04 UTC 
utilities/openfile ?
Comment 4 t_h 2008-02-22 10:49:35 UTC 
It should be solved by fix for #127183. It works for trunk (it is necessary to specify also "." as shortcut's "Start
in"). Closing as duplicate.
