I would like to remove the Web Deployment Descriptor API from the standard distribution of NetBeans 5.5: http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-api-web-dd/architecture-summary.html http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-api-web-dd/overview-summary.html This API was deprecated (it is not listed in the API list for NB 5.0), and replaced by the J2EE deployment descriptor API, which handles all J2EE deployment descriptors (not just web tier): http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-j2ee-dd/architecture-summary.html http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-j2ee-dd/overview-summary.html Currently we are not aware of any clients that use the deprecated web dd API.
Done, per issue 71288. Marking as a duplicate of that issue. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 71288 ***
