Description Svata Dedic 2000-11-01 14:47:23 UTC 
Reported on behalf of milan.kuchtiak@netbeans.com:

JSP and maybe other modules that customize compilation for their data need a a
way how they could affect the compiler type's settings for the files being
compiled without changing the "global" CompilerType instances shown in Project
Settings. It is possible to construct a new CompilerType instance given the
original one and copy property values, but it would be nice, if the
JavaCompilerType supports cloning itself to a new object that would allow
customizing the settings.
This feature is crucial, b/c JSP need to force utf-8 encoding for servlets they
compile, but the method should _not_ affect user settings specified in Project
Settings | Compiler Types.

[1148] Verified
CompilerType.clone() is working fine now.
Comment 2 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 13:20:40 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
