Please make Move refactoring for non-Java related files available Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 (Build 201302132200) Operating System = Linux version 3.8.0-19-generic running on amd64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_21 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.21-b01
The java refactoring support has different plugins updating several non-java files. Can you give a more detailed explanation of the type of file you want to see updated?
Any text file that contains the fully qualified classname. It would even help to configure the file type: like *.*, *.xml, *.properties Eg in workflow xml for jpdl, or properties files that contain homemade configurations, that are clearly not supported by any plugin. The result should always be 'Previewed'.

This will be just a textual find & replace, this can be done with Replace in Projects... Ctrl+Shift+H

Yes and no, The idea is to *help* the user to not type things twice. I do not want to first refactor a classname and then do Find and Replace all over again to find textual appearances again. This is twice the work. I want that if I do refactor my classname/'move it' that I only have to check a box to 'find fully qualified appearances in text filex' too (like eclipse does it already) which will open the Preview for refactorings for all the changes. That will save a 'lot' of work for the user!
