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.
Please provide an API to customize the Open Project's default startup folder. Currently the default startup folder is the user's home directory. Sun Studio creates all new projects (by default) in a folder called SunStudioProjects in the user's home directory, and we want the Open Project dialog to look in this folder by default as well.
org.netbeans.spi.project.ui.support.ProjectChooser.setProjectsFolder();
ProjectChooser.setProjectsFolder() sets the folder last used for creating a new project. I'm asking for an api to set the folder for opening a project (Openproject dialog). This is a different property.
Well, if you set a folder through org.netbeans.spi.project.ui.support.ProjectChooser.setProjectsFolder, it is used the very first time Open Project dialog is opened. The following invocations of the Open Project dialog use the last selected folder. Could you please describe what you need? Thanks.
According to my tests, setting a folder thru ProjectChooser.setProjectsFolder affects the default project folder for creating projects with New Project wizard. It don't change the default folder for opening aproject. It still uses your home directory. When testing this, use a fresh userdir and try Open project as first action. I'm using 4.1. Could this have changed in 5.0?
Yes, this has been changed in 5.0, see issue #58010.
it is fixed in 5.0. Pls close.....
Thanks.
