I've downloaded through CVS sources for NB using : ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.netbeans.org:/cvs" as CVSRoot. I updated NB4.0B2 with module for API support, then I was able to open projects for NetBeans itself, but each time I select [SOME] "project folder" I got java.io.IOException: Misconfigured project in MasterFileObject@103a032[file:/home/ciglansky/projects/NetBeans/[SOME]/module/] has no defined <code-name-base> . Furthermore, when trying to build it, I got an error /home/ciglansky/projects/NetBeans/nbbuild/templates/projectized.xml:30: No <name> in build.xml line : <parseprojectxml project="." modulesxml="${nb_all}/nbbuild/templates/modules.xml" codenamebasedashesproperty="code.name.base.dashes" codenamebaseslashesproperty="code.name.base.slashes"/> Howevwer, projects seems to be open.

Sounds like you have some old version of sources before a format change that added <code-name-base> to every project.xml. Don't know where you got the binary API support you are using, but it is probably obsolete. Best to build apisupport/project (and apisupport/ant) from the same sources you are opening.
This issue was solved long time ago. Because nobody has reopened it neither added comments, we are verifying/closing it now. If you are still able to reproduce the problem, please reopen. Thanks in advance.
