Description Michel Graciano 2013-12-27 11:16:39 UTC 
[ BUILD # : e866b2d563a1 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.7.0_40 ]

STEPS:
   * Tried with project https://github.com/ricardolonga/compras

ACTUAL:
   Folders inside 'Web Page' does not have subnodes (The IDE treats it as
empty).

EXPECTED:
   Folders inside 'Web Page' should have subnodes, with the content as seen in
Files view.

Sample image

As you can see in this image, the nodes for some folders are not expandable as expected.

reassigning to j2ee/maven for evaluation

I've got the same problem (was checking current state of the latest dev build of NetBeans).

Attaching minimal MAVEN project to reproduce the problem and screenshot for it.

Comment 8 Martin Janicek 2014-01-03 11:04:20 UTC 
Seems to be caused by small change in Datasystem API: core-main #ed1b861c4c90 (reverting the change is fixing the issue)

Although not sure if the change-set should be reverted or if the Nodes API needs to be improved with respect to it. I don't really understand what's going on in all these kinds of Nodes but if you check class WebPagesNode from maven.j2ee (line 76), you will be able to see that without the change-set calling orig.getChildren() returns correct folders/files (and instance of orig is usually DataFolder.ClonedFilter), but after applying it "orig instances" are DelayedNode in some cases and they are returning Children.Empty which results in the missing folders/files in the Project View.

Reassigning to Datasystem API for further evaluation, CCing Honza as owner of Nodes API.

Reverting core-main #ed1b861c4c90.

WebPagesNode doesn't expect that children of its original node can be changed, so it cannot be used with DelayedNode.

There can be more similar cases in other modules, so the safest solution is to revert the change.

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.
