Bug 89624

Summary:	Open Project... should not create ~/NetBeansProjects

Description Kirill Sorokin 2006-11-19 20:51:40 UTC

When I choose File->Open Project... the default location is ~/NetBeansProjects.
The problem is that the directory gets created if it does not exist. It should
not be that way. NB should probably check whether it exists, and if it does not
- fallback to just ~.

The impact is obviously not serious, but the annoyance factor is tremendous.
Thus a P2. See also Issue 89622.

Initial dir for filechooser should track the last-used dir so you should only
need to delete an empty ~/NBP once; thus P3.
