This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Currently custom code which searches and replaces strings is used to generate Spring artifacts. This leads to complicated code which is hard to maintain. A standard mechanism for generating template-based content, such as FreeMarker, should be used instead.
How is this a defect? This really should be an enhancement
Do you plan to fix it for 6.1?
I'll evaluate this tomorrow 3/5
Taking over, will fix this as part of issue 129454.
I can fix this now that I know a little about Freemarker
moving opened issues from TM <= 6.1 to TM=Dev
I had made some changes to use freemarker but not everywhere in Spring Web MVC
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss
