Description bapujiv 2004-09-15 23:40:22 UTC 
I am developing some UI using bean components that
i have created. In my code, order of setting
properties important in some cases. But NetBeans
always generates code for properties setting in
the alphabetical order of property names, which is
not good in my case.
Can NetBeans be changed/modified to generate code
in the order they are set?

Thanks.

I assume you mean form editor UI code generation. Reassigning to form
module.
Comment 2 bapujiv 2004-09-16 13:35:18 UTC 
Your assumption is correct Mr.Raskanin. I was confused about the
module. I thought editor module is related to UI code generation.
Sorry about that.

The properties should be order-independent according to JavaBeans
specification. In spite of this fact it is not the case even
for some Swing components (see for example issues 25834, 35916).
We have implemented hacks to resolve these Swing problems.
Unfortunately it is not possible to change the order of the properties
directly in UI of form editor. You can use Pre-initialization
and Post-initialization code as a workaround (open custom
editor for some property using '...' button in the property
sheet and press Advanced button).
