Description Tomas Mysik 2008-10-17 16:21:03 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
- install Automatic Projects module
- try to create Java Project with Existing Sources for some Java files with existing build.xml file (jsch library in 
my case)
- wizard complains that the directory is already NB project (but it isn't in fact)

Workaround:
- disable/remove Automatic Projects module

Comment 1 Tomas Zezula 2008-10-17 17:18:54 UTC

I have completely no idea how to force the auto project not to recognize the project folder.
Jesse, have you any idea what to do?

Comment 2 Jan Lahoda 2008-10-17 17:29:24 UTC

The same situation as in issue #149885, IMO.

Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2008-10-17 22:39:42 UTC

Right, essentially the same as issue #149885; the j2seproject wizard is being too aggressive. (There was already a
similar fix for 6.5 made in the Eclipse importer.)

Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2009-10-21 23:24:03 UTC

Lower priority since autodetection of projects based on build.xml is off by default.

Comment 5 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 07:16:48 UTC

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,
