Summary:	TAGLIBED: Add "View Tag Handler" menu item on each tag

Description Jason Rush 2003-02-16 18:31:09 UTC

Description: 
Currently there is no easy way to find the tag handler code from the tag 
node.  The user must manually sift through the tag handler classes that are
generated in the mounted filesystem.

Suggested Fix: 
Add a "View Tag Handler" menu item on the tag's context menu. This would open 
tag handler code (and show the tag handler class node in the explorer window).

Evaluation: 
This could be done if the tag handler has already been generated. 
If it hasn't then I guess we could call the generate tag handler action
for the selected node. 

The code to determine where the tag handler is located is already present
in the generate code action. 

A comment.

NetBeans 4.0 does not have UI for individual tags, but it would still
be nice to be able to quickly navigate from tld object to tag
handlers. Assigning to Milan.

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