Hi I'm still trying to migrate from jBuilder 2006 to NetBeans, But even the simplest things that we had ther can't be done in NetBeans. After asking this on the forum and nobody could answered it, i'm openning an issue on it. It's too important and I don't see how a magor serious project can be done without it. I'm trying to include a set of files/folder to my project, a very simple task that should be supported by now, but I could not find how... In Java ME you can't do this, the closes thing that you can do is: properties > build > Libreries & Resources > Add Folder But doing that is adding the files/folders as resources, in the resource section. What I would like to see is adding them in the packages section, so I can use them like any other file, including using them in the project running configuration. If we have a lot of projects (that happens with JME for the huge amount of different devices) You can create common files so several projects can use them, and only files specific to these projetcs should be created per project, all other commomn files just need to be included. For example: We have one MIDlet that opening and running a game, We have created a menu that could be used by all our games, We have some games, and each game have several resolutions. The directory structure looks somthing like this: com \ MIDlet.java --> used by all games menu.java --> used by all games game_1 \ game \ game.java --> used by all resolutions in this game messages.java --> used by all resolutions in this game 176x220 \ game \ varabels.java 240x300 \ game \ varabels.java game_2 \ gameCom \ game.java --> used by all resolutions in this game messages.java --> used by all resolutions in this game 176x220 \ game \ varabels.java 240x300 \ game \ varabels.java I'm creating a project group for game_1 inside we have two projects: 176x220 and 240x300 Now... I'm trying to create each project with all needed files, After creating project group for each game and openning that project group, What I am expecting to see in the project is somthing like this: 176x220 \ com \ MIDlet.java menu.java game \ game.java messages.java varabels.java 240x300 \ com \ MIDlet.java menu.java game \ game.java messages.java varabels.java By the way, in jBuilder, if you have the same file name in the same included folder, It give priority for the last added file and override it. A very important also if you whant to override a file after including a folder with all it's files. Thanks
Thanks for feedback we will evaluate this problem. I'm moving this issue to the FEATURE section and rising priority to P3.
