Description kitfox 2005-11-13 14:20:09 UTC 
NetBeans currently doesn't allow you to cut and paste a file named
package-info.java to another package using the Exporer/Files window.  As of Java
5, a package-info.java file is the prefered way to provide javadoc documentation
for a package.

Bugs 60949 and 61436 seem similar to this one.

Reassigning to "java" for evaluation.
Comment 2 kitfox 2005-11-14 18:48:21 UTC 
Another problem is that you cannot rename the parent folder containing the
package-info.java file.
Comment 3 Jan Becicka 2005-11-15 13:39:54 UTC 
I can cut/paste - move package-info without problems. Please try to reproduce
this issue in latest dev build. Thanks.
