See subj. This prevents deployment of EAR project to WL as WL unfortunately needs the standard deployment descriptor even for Java EE 5. It has been fixed for web project, but I guess EAR is a different case.
Does this affect 7.4 only, or also 7.3.1? If 7.3.1, then Version should be changed to 7.3.1.
Looking at the code I think this problem was even in 7.2. But shortly yes, this impact 7.3.1 for sure
Fixed in: web-main #3cfad17050d0 (javaee7 branch)
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201305072300* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/16931e9d2a4f User: Martin Janicek <mjanicek@netbeans.org> Log: #228191 - No application.xml for EAR on WL
