Description jerosser 2005-05-20 17:36:03 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200505031930 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_02 ]

When installing NB4.1 the registry elements to
match file type (.java) to the app and app icons
are not getting set.  Every .java file should be
showning the Netbeans icon and double-clicking
should open the app.

This looks to be fairly recent (since beta),
previous versions of NB (3.6, 4.0) did not have
this problem.  Not certain that RC1 or RC2
properly set this but I think that the March/April
dailies did.

.java file association with IDE is not set by installer. NB 3.6 installer did
it. But from NB 4.0 it was removed.

You can set file type association manually: You must use command
<PATH>\netbeans.exe --open "%1" for java file type (file with java extension).
