Could a NB features list be made available please. Such a list will enable users or potential users of NB to see what NB has to offer.
This is in progress. Tim, any updates ?
Tim, any updates ? Leaving the priority high here, as this was an old issue before Emmanuel reported it, 4 months ago. If you are not able to complete this, can you help transition whatever you have to someone new, or suggest some other method of getting this doc/data ? Emmanuel, you are probably already aware of the "New Features" lists on the site, not quite what you are after, but perhaps interesting : http://www.netbeans.org/release33/features/nb33-features-overview.html
The right way to do this long-term in a scalable way is for each module to have a features document in XML, and generate the features list. We should have a base list of categories, and the generated HTML should list by category (and annotate with what module the feature is from), e.g.: <feature id="JavaSyntaxColoring" firstversion="1.0" category="Editing"> <title>Java Syntax Coloring</title> <desc>Font coloring of Java keywords and syntax in the Source Editor</desc> <module>Editor</module> </feature> <feature id="XEmacsIntegration" firstversion="3.4" category="Editing"> <title>XEmacs integration</title> <desc>Use XEmacs instead of the IDE's internal source editor</desc> <module>ExternalEditor</module> </feature> Manual maintenance of such a document is not something anybody should take on.
Sounds great; pls keep this issue updated, I'd like to use a similar technique to catalogue docs all over the module websites.
George has done this, pls see http://www.netbeans.org/about/ide/features.html
