Description belur_1d 2006-10-18 05:31:21 UTC

Hi

Right now evaluate expression textfield does not monitor clipboard
nor does it monitor what the  user has selected in editor

It  becomes difficult for the user to type long expressions
[Ok we can copy and paste..agreed] ..BUT it will be really
cool if netbeans can do it automatically

This is very simple to implement...

please have a look at this...


Thanks
belurs

Please add the "evaluate expression"  task as right click option also

Completly agree with the submitter's opinion! This is really one thing that gets on my nerves while developing with
Netbeans (by now, 6.5). I wish it worked like in IntelliJ IDEA...
