Cau, I am modifying a lot of issues at once, as I think I have something to say in general. In NetBeans API documentation we have few places where we list "layer APIs". The most central one is http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/layers.html This is supposed to help module writers to find information about possible folders where it is possible to make their registrations. I believe that the ability to register actions into menu items of loaders is important and shall be documented. That is why please modify your arch*.xml documents together with the change in your layers. This is example I put into openide/loaders: <api name="Loaders-folder-any-Actions" category="stable" group="layer" type="export" > The actions that the default folder loader shows in its popup menu are read from a layer folder <code>Loaders/folder/any/Actions</code> so if any module wishes to extend, hide or reorder some of them it can just register its actions there. </api> Possible problem is that you have to modify an arch*.xml of a module which provides a javadoc, otherwise it will not be listed in the docs page. If you have such module, please modify its arch*.xml, otherwise modify your own arch*.xml, in future we can process it, even if it does not have javadoc at all. Thanks for helping to improve our developers documentation. Add the actions to the layer file. Updated layer.xml with default actions for sun-resource xml's Can you add commit logs for layer.xml and changed arch*.xml to comments? BTW it is new our policy. ropened->fixed Verified |
