I can reproduce this issue in NetBeans 7.1. *.qrc files are ignored in both cases: if existing file is added or new one is created. It's quite a serious regression, but still this is not a P1 issue. Downgrading to P2. > still this is not a P1 issue
What's the matter with you? This issue makes Netbeans 7.1 impossible to make QT projectes at all! This issue is about complete feature loss: netbeans 7.1 can not make QT projects anymore.
Such simple tasks like set an application icon are now just impossible for nb 7.1.

For our qt projects nb 7.1 is completly useless. It's not about comfort, it's about complete unablity to develop qt applications. > Why you can't restart NetBeans in order to fix build? What d'you mean by "restart" and what is "fix build"? I do not understand you. For now we rolled back all our nb back to 7.0.1. and go on delepment as usual. ----------- In our qt projects the file structure of the project has the meaning and therefore we add everything through file tree first and then everytime before each build we remove everything from the project and use "Add existing items ...". That's why it is impossible for us to use 7.1 - it will not add resoures to our projects. For qt projects it is impossible to add new items in project tree, cause in this case every item is save in the project root that that is not acceptable for us. We have strict rules for file structure of our qt projects. (In reply to comment #4) > What d'you mean by "restart" and what is "fix build"?

No, thank you. We'd better stick to 7.0.1. and wait while the defect will be fixed.
We have priority definitions and this is a P2 (a high priority issue). I do not know how priority matter for you. I think what matters is the fix. There is an engineer assigned and looking into the issue. It is also already nominated for the next patch. So playing with priority may help to reflect your level of disappointment, but will not affect the fix delivery timeframe. Your problem is important for us and I can ensure you that we are doing our best to make sure it is fixed. Thank you for using the product, providing feedback, as well as for your understanding and patience. Leonid. > 2 Leonid
I got no claim to nb dev team, cause nb is free and it would be at least not polite to claim anything. The core idea I transfer and protect is a whole feature loss in 7.1. It can be P1, P2, P3 or anything else, but from production point of view it IS a feature loss.
Soldatov's option is not acceptable, cause some of our projects take 12-15 minutes to clean & build and that would be a hige stress for developers to fulfill all these "tambourine dances" each time they edit file structure.
I've found simple workaround for this issue: you just need to close the project with broken *.qrc and open it again. This issue was introduced while Bug #200743 "meta files for Hotspot are regenerated during clean&build all the time" fixing. So I'll re-assign this one to Alexander for further investigation. > simple workaround for this issue:

That's much improved solution comparing to Soldatov's one, but still comfort of doing things in 7.0.1 is much natural and productive. Thank you.
