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.
http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/Excludes49026 Please extend support for includes and excludes to types of project beyond j2se, in particular - web projects.
Note that exact scope is still TBD - incl/excl on Java source roots? On docroots?
In my case, only source roots are relevant (see #97168 for details). I'm not sure how useful would it be for docroots, but I can imagine a possible use case - excluding old or deprecated files without removing them from the tree.
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss
