Description _ tboudreau 2002-04-07 05:22:27 UTC 
If you have an XML file which includes other local files 
as entities, and modify the structure of one of the 
included files, the node tree of the containing document 
does not change - even "Reload document" does not achieve 
this.  

Ideally it should happen automatically, but if that is not 
possible, at least "Reload document" should force a 
reparse that will notice that the included entities have 
changed.
Comment 1 _ lkramolis 2002-04-25 18:46:47 UTC 
I hope "Reload document" action works. It takes some time to reparse
document and update changes to old tree -- do not you try it on big
documents? Is not tree really updated after some time ("25" minutes)?

Listening on local entities could be nice features -- changing to
ENHANCEMENT.
Comment 2 _ tboudreau 2002-04-26 00:40:12 UTC 
Yes, I was not kidding, it really took 25 minutes on restart.  I was
too scared to try reload document!
Comment 3 _ pkuzel 2002-06-03 12:26:12 UTC 
Let these are considered while planning next release.
Comment 4 Marek Grummich 2002-07-19 16:32:48 UTC 
Target milestone was changed from not determined to TBD
Comment 5 _ pkuzel 2003-03-17 15:21:21 UTC 
It's getting more complicated because 'external entity' can be defined by:
  - Xinclude
  - Xlink
  - XSLT import and include
  - XMLSchema import, ...

It must be guarded by associated semantics editor.

XML tree editor is not part of NetBeans since 3.5 version. No plans to bring it
back.
