Description vbrabant 2004-05-17 15:43:23 UTC

When user creates a new J2SE project, a Project
Name is given by default (Java Project n).
And that project name is used for the proposal of
the main class:
org.Java_Project_N.Main.

But the guidelines for Java is the following:
packages would not contains _ or Uppercase letters.

So, please avoid to propose stuff like that.

Comment 1 Petr Hrebejk 2004-05-17 16:04:14 UTC

Let's see what will UI guys say.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2004-05-17 16:27:54 UTC

Actually I believe a mixedCasePackageName is OK. But certainly
starting a package name with an uppercase letter is strange.

Comment 3 jrojcek 2004-05-17 16:33:18 UTC

Agreed. The spec describes it (Create Main Class field description):

http://projects.netbeans.org/nonav/buildsys/j2se-project-ui-
spec.html#Step_2_New_Java_Application_Proj

Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2004-06-15 13:42:25 UTC

Tomas please evaluate.

Comment 5 Tomas Zezula 2004-06-15 14:49:45 UTC

Already fixed. The name is created without "_" and always starts with
low letter.

Comment 6 vbrabant 2004-06-15 16:03:50 UTC

Could you tell me when it has been fixed because with 20040608, it's
not yet fixed.

If you follow specs
http://projects.netbeans.org/nonav/buildsys/j2se-project-ui-spec.html#Step_2_New_Java_Application_Proj

I must be able to create a project 'My First Project' and having as
Main class myfirstproject.Main.

Or I obtain 'myFirstProject'.

So, I conclude that fix is not compliant with specs.

Thank you very much.

Comment 7 vbrabant 2004-06-17 21:36:37 UTC

I just tested with 200406161800 and creating a project like 'My First
Project" will create a package like 'myFirstPackage'.
And that's not compliant with your spec.
