Description Petr Nejedly 2004-06-03 10:07:11 UTC 
Mo matter which file I select, the Run->Run
other->Run file action is constantly disabled.
Comment 1 Petr Nejedly 2004-06-03 10:17:44 UTC 
Ah, additional node: It seems that it works correctly in J2SE project
type, so it probably doesn't work only in the NetBeans module project
type.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2004-06-03 22:37:02 UTC 
There is no defined semantics for it in the NBM project type;
intentionally omitted.
Comment 3 Petr Nejedly 2005-03-29 08:48:32 UTC 
OK

When writing classes for a NetBeans modules often times you'd like to add a main routine to the class to test it. Right
now there is no way to run the class other than creating a JUnit test. I don't really see why it is necessary to disable
the "Run File" menu for this case, it just hamstrings the developer (customer).

Then write a test class for it, since 6.7 there is a support for running main method in test. It is only 2 clicks away
and you can keep the tests without cluttering your code.
