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.
JBoss requires (?) that ejb modules be named with .jar as the directory extension. NetBeans seems to confuse the *directory* with being a *file*. The NetBeans behaviour is that a jar icon is displayed that cannot be expanded. I would have expected that NetBeans would detect that this is a directory, not a file, and simply display the ejb module like it does a normal directory. Also, JBoss web modules can be created as a directory with a .war extension, and NetBeans displays these ok, i.e. as an expandable directory, not a jar icon. That is, it works ok for .war directories, just not .jar directories. Greg.
