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.
Projects infrastructure allows to have several 'additional' attributes on project template files for variouse purposes. Since these attributes aren't 'known' for the FileUtil.copyFile method they are copied to the target project file during the template instantiation (this may also include serialization of WizardIterator objects, etc.) Attributes defined for template file shouldn't be copied to the new project file created from that template.
As described in http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=619519&listName=nbdiscuss the current work on projects prototype has been stopped.
