Description Vince Kraemer 2007-04-16 22:09:52 UTC

If a user is working on a web app that has helper classes (classes that aren't
servlets) they may want to have the Run File action trigger one of the servlets
that the class they are currently editing uses.

As an example:

I have foo.MyServlet that calls a method bar.MyHelper.getResultOfCalculation().

I do a Run File of foo.MyServlet and see that the return value from
bar.MyHelper.getResultOfCalculation is wrong.  So, I open the editor for
bar.MyHelper.  I fix the issue and I want to test the output of the servlet...

Currently, I need to change the editor focus away from the file I just edited to
get the Run File to do what I want: rerun the servlet.

It would be nice to eliminate the focus shift.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
