Description _ pkuzel 2003-07-07 16:23:07 UTC 
I want to have project global setting. 

I quickly scanned documentation and stored it
under project.getInitialContext(). It works.

Then I was warned that I should not use this
approach and looked at ConfigurationManager. I
tried path Project -> ConfigurationManager ->
[missing link] -> Configuration
.getContext(project). There was the missing link.
(I would prefer this path because it starts from
CM - central projects settings manager.)

Finally I got a hint from Vita that proper
solution is Contexts.createContext(project, null).
It's perfectly hidden, undocumented and
unintuitive :-(.

The Contexts.createContext mentioned in javadoc of Project class.

http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=619519&listName=nbdiscuss the
current work on projects prototype has been stopped.
