I have an enterprise application which consists of two web modules. Each of them has a java class library project as its library. When I select Clean and Build for the whole enteprise application, the java class library project gets built twice. The second time is definitely excessive. -- I'm working with NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200610231500) 1.6.0-rc; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0-rc-b104 Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86 ru_RU (nb); Cp1251
Well.. A performance issue obviously. ;)
Reassigning to EAR project.
After a second thought.. Not really a defect, but an enhancement request.
I would argue that this is not an enhancement but a bug. A bug that severely limits the use of NetBeans on a large-scale project, at that. I work on a large scale enterprise application with about 30 modules with varying dependencies on each other. When I build the product, all of the modules are built several times. This build process takes over 25 minutes, when it should take less than 5! This should be a matter of setting an ant property after the build of a module is successful, and only calling build on the dependent module if that property is not set. This is not just a J2EE bug, but an Ant build bug.
