This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
There should be a single property where the name of the user is filled, accessible perhaps from the setup wizard, so that the user fill it in one time on the first startup, and it can be used in templates and other stuff. Currently, there is one property in Java Objects, filled with the loginname, which causes all the newly created Java files to have comment: /** * * @author if97926 */ It would be good if the user would be asked somewhere in the beginning (the setup wizard might be ideal) to fill in his name, and this could then be used in all the templates as the standard substitution for __USER__.
Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Target milestone -> 3.4
Adding Pavel Buzek to cc: since this is related to projects. Changing target milestone to 4.0, since nothing will be done in 3.4
Target milestone -> not determined
I am just curious: is this related to projects?
Target milestone was changed from not determined to TBD
With #13250 we could agree on such property more easily.
Issue 13250 defined the property to be "user". Everyone using the "scripting" templating approach: http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-openide-loaders/architecture-summary.html#script can rely on the value of that property.
