Description kalali 2005-10-20 13:25:24 UTC 
[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_03 ]

This module is required when user try to use AdvancedOption ,OptionsCategory,PanelController ... which are all required for 
using the modern option dialog in Application which are going to be based on Netbeans Platform.

A more familiar developer  can add this module from his/her IDE distro to platform but a user who is not familiar will face problem.

We do not intend to put the new Options dialog in the platform for 5.0 (possibly
ever, but I don't know). If you want to use it, include it in your app from ide6.

I dont know if a netcat member or at all a community member has right to open an
issue again or not.
But imho it , having no good Option api included into the platform will hurt the
users.just think that why you introduced a new option api and then decide on its
present in platform.

Sure whoever with a login to IssueZilla can reopen an issue - of course if one
has some arguments for it :)
Comment 4 kalali 2005-10-21 18:33:35 UTC 
I reopen the issue As i mentioned that a good option api is required for
platform out of the box , not with copying some jar files and xmls from IDE
subfolders or some place else into the platform directories.
Another things that as i write some sample and test with platform ,
I can not use platform with new Option API , with all copy and past that i ahve
done.
Comment 5 Jan Chalupa 2005-10-22 16:53:36 UTC 
As already explained, there is no plan to put the new Options dialog in the
platform for 5.0. This is as designed. Not a bug.
Comment 6 kalali 2006-01-18 09:09:53 UTC 
if it is acording to design , then it should be closed
