Bug 135891

Summary: Extensions added in options aren't applied to existing files till NetBeans restart
Product: cnd Reporter: Sergey Grinev <sergius>
Component: ProjectAssignee: Alexander Simon <alexvsimon>
Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME    
Severity: blocker    
Priority: P3    
Version: 6.x   
Hardware: All   
OS: All   
Issue Type: DEFECT Exception Reporter:
Bug Depends on: 134192    
Bug Blocks:    

Description Sergey Grinev 2008-05-27 15:10:03 UTC 
1. Create a plain text file with name "random.cfg"
2. Type "int i;" in it. No highlighing should be shown.
3. Go to Tools->Options->C/C++->Other->C/C++ Header File Extensions and add "cfg" to extensions list.

EXPECTED: opened "random.cfg" would get syntax highlighting and will be marked as header file in project view
OBSERVED: it is not. Neither reopening file, nor reopening project, nor removing from project and adding back will fix
this. 
WORKAROUND: new extensions works fine after restarting IDE.

N.B.: applicable only to trunk version due to http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=134192
