Description Marek Fukala 2004-05-20 15:45:39 UTC 
I guess there is such an issue already, but just
for sure since it's so serious.

During a development cycle on an application you
need to execute/run a some separated classes many
times. There is a need to have an easy way how to
do so. However I still see the Run -> Run Other ->
"Run File" action without any shortcut. This is
absolutely crucial to have a shortcut for the
action since e.g. in webapps you need to
frequently execute single servlets or JSPs when
you work on their code.

I would suggest to have a shortcut consistent with
the Run Project action (F6). So Ctrl-F6 or Alt-F6
would be reasonable.

This is really critical for the work productivity. Please evaluate
this bug at least so I know that somebody will take care of it. Thanks.
Comment 2 Petr Jiricka 2004-06-15 15:24:07 UTC 
The 'ui' category does not seem to have an owner, reassigning to projects.
Comment 3 Petr Hrebejk 2004-06-15 15:46:24 UTC 
According to the spec it will have a shorcut Shif-F6. Just did not
implement it yet as the spec changed recently
Comment 4 Marek Fukala 2004-06-15 15:54:07 UTC 
Great! So the bug being a P2 is not a problem for you. Just want this
not to be forgotten.
Comment 5 Petr Hrebejk 2004-06-16 14:36:27 UTC 
So the RunOther menu should now have shortcuts matching the spec.

For the web team please notice the behavior of RUN-SINGLE required by
Jano. See issue #43678. It may require changes in your ActionProvider.
Comment 6 Petr Jiricka 2004-06-16 14:49:05 UTC 
Thanks (even though you are stealing shortcuts from our modules - bad
boy ;-)

There is a related issue 44786 - we'd like to have the "Run File"
action in the popup menu of the JSP node and also in the JSP editor
popup menu. I think for Java files it should work in a similar way.
Comment 7 Petr Hrebejk 2004-06-16 14:58:36 UTC 
Blame Jano.

I just added Run File action into menu of JavaNodes it might or might
not make it appear on JSPs as well depend on whether you extend
JavaDataLoader and what you do in the getActions method.
Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2004-06-16 20:33:47 UTC 
Well for JSP files you can easily add it yourself.
Comment 9 Petr Jiricka 2004-06-17 19:48:21 UTC 
I know, we will do that. I was just talking about adding it to Java files.

BTW, shouldn't the actions in Java node's popup menu have a shortcut,
i.e. Shift+F6 and Ctrl+Shift+F5 ?
