One easy way to create a new profile from an executable object would be to use a "Run With <class name>" menu item. This item would create a profile using the executable, and would then run with that profile. Chris, please, specify this in uispec, add a link in this issue and reassign back to code category owner.
Special care has to be taken about the performance, should this action be enabled only on Java files which have public static void main (String[]) method, if so parsing of the file is required while building the menu, this can cause serious performance problems. Other solution is to have this action on all Java files (which are in project) and if the class has no p. s. v. main (String[]) it ends with some message.
let's not worry about this one for the usability study. i'd rather see us have normal profile creation done to spec and then we can look at results from the test to see if this feature is really necessary -especially given the performance hit it may entail.
Fine, however I steel wory about performance.
Implemented.
