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.
When you have an Ant script with the following: <!DOCTYPE project [ <!ENTITY include SYSTEM "../../../../../common-ant.xml"> ]> All the targets show up correctly in the Projects/Files window, but double-clicking any of them doesn't open the included file at the target. Especially visible since all of the J2EE samples use this syntax.
Not only that it doesn't open the file but it jumps to completly wrong location in the file that contains &include; so user might be very confused.
No plans to fully support entity includes; they are obsoleted by <import> in Ant 1.6. You can run the script, but IDE support stops there.
