Description Jesse Glick 2007-08-01 23:48:37 UTC

SH should ensure that if a TYPE_GENERIC group has a subfolder which is in nonSourceRoots, it is not marked as
contain()'d. This would permit you to add a <build-folder> to a freeform project which could make that subfolder be
excluded from searches etc.

Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2007-08-02 00:54:52 UTC

Alternately: keep a static Set<File> of nonSourceRoots (from all SH instances), and install a global
SharabilityQueryImplementation which reports these dirs (and any children) as NOT_SHARABLE. This would have the effect
of making such dirs not be contain()'d in generic groups, but be more general.

Test in nbbuild/nbproject/project.xml with Go to File:

               <build-folder>
                    <location>build</location>
                </build-folder>
                <build-folder>
                    <location>nbms</location>
                </build-folder>
                <build-folder>
                    <location>netbeans</location>
                </build-folder>
                <build-folder>
                    <location>testuserdir</location>
                </build-folder>

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