No clue what would be going on there; need steps to reproduce from scratch. I've been learning NetBeans using 6.9 Beta. I typically use Project Groups defined by directory structure, where the top folder is the main project, and subprojects are in subfolders. Yesterday, I installed netbeans-6.9rc1-ml-javase-windows.exe. The first thing I did after installation was create a new Project Group, based on a directory structure of existing projects. However, it did not detect the projects, but just brought up an empty Project Group. If I remember right, I then installed Java EE plug-ins, thinking the missing plug-ins might have prevented the projects from loading. It did not immediately load any of the missing projects, not surprisingly. I then used "Open Project" to open the individual projects; selected Project Group / (none); and reopened the Project Group I had previously created. This time it found the projects, and has been working fine since. If you can't repeat this easily, feel free to mark it unrepeatable and move on. I'm willing to accept that it's a fluke. Can't reproduce. Start a dev build incl. ergonomics ("feature on demand") with a fresh user dir. Create new project group by folder on the top dir of a previously created FeedReader sample. Java SE feature was enabled and the module suite project and its component module projects were opened. |
