-User was asked to activate Java EE component even he is using the Netbean All/Java version and already activated the Glassfish V3 Prelude (Web & Java EE) -This issue is about usability and compatibility with previous versions. Why makes it harder and different than previous version Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Netbean Dev 7.0 All version from http://bits.netbeans.org/download/trunk/nightly/latest/ 2. From the Plugin dialog, select to activate Glassfish V3 Prelude 3. Create a Web project Note: I again was asked to activate the Java EE
I would say that such behaviour can be controlled by various dependencies (recommends, requires, etc). Anyway, it`s the responsibility of the module owner.
I think this issue is filed against a very obsolete implementation of the FoD. Since the user cannot enable the plugin separately, it is invalid now. Closing as such.
