patch

Denis, I do not know what would be the reason of such a change. In order to allow a friend dependency to a module, I
need to know something about the module and why the dependency is needed. The fact that the module is your grant project
is not enough. Properties module has no stable API and adding more and more friends is not a regular replacement for the
state. If you need to make your module available to a few people, make a local change of your local copy of the
Properties module. If you think that your module could have a much wider audience, please send a more descriptive
proposal for addition of the friend dependency, together with a description of your module, to the NB-dev mailing list.
Currently, friend dependencies are set up only between modules that are distributed as part of the NetBeans IDE, as far
as I known. Maybe your module is so good that it could replace the current Properties module so it could really replace
it - but it is hard to say without more information. As explained above, send an e-mail to NB-dev first, describing what
your module does and why you think a dependency should be added.

Could you add it? Thanks

I committed the patch on Wednesday but have not pushed it yet to the main repository. I am going to push it in two hours.

Will it be included in the NetBeans 6.5? because 6.5beta doesn't contains this patch

Yes, it will be included in NetBeans 6.5.
