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.
Not sure wheather it's a bug or not, so please evalute: When I edit a long description property of standalone module, (i enter e.g. "abcdefg"), budle properties does not contain pure text. cat Bundle.properties OpenIDE-Module-Display-Category=XML OpenIDE-Module-Long-Description=\ abcdefg not sure why there is backslash and text is on next line?!?! Feel free to close as invalid.
It is intentional. In most of cases the long description contains more than one sentence. So for readability it is splitted by sentences (sentence per line). And it contains pure text. Backslash has similar, or the same, meaning as in e.g. linux shell. PS: all issues regarding new apisupport (project's properties, NB platform manager, new wizards, etc.) should be assigned to apisupport/project, not apisupport/code.
I thought it works this way. but sure is sure:) PS: yes, i'll take care next time;) Verified.
