I open web.xml in a J2EE project. I edit the file in some fashion, the tab displays "web.xml *", indicating that it has been modified. I type "apple-s" (shortcut for "save", which works in all other places). Nothing happens, file is not saved. However, I can save the file by selecting File / Save.
Are you using 5.5 FCS? This looks like a duplicate of issue 74048 which was fixed for 5.5 final.
About says "NetBeans ID 5.5 (Build 20061017101)"
It should be the final build then, I'll have a look at this. So you have the multiview editor opened for web.xml, i.e. not just a regular xml editor? Could you also please specify which version of MacOS you have? Thanks.
OSX 10.4.9 on Intel Core Duo 2, but I seem to recall that earlier versions had the same problem, I just had never bothered to file a bug ... % java -version java version "1.5.0_07" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-164) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_07-87, mixed mode, sharing) I don't quite know the right NetBeans terminology, but the problem occurs if I open up web.xml by double-click (leading to a multi-tabbed editor with titles "General", "Servlets", "Filters" etc.), regardless of which tab I'm in, and it occurs if I open up web.xml from the context popup menu with "Edit" (leading to a regular editor).
Can reproduce in XML view in Multi View it works fine for me. Reproducible in 5.5.1 as well. In 6.0 both view works fine. Workaround is to use [ctrl][S] shortcut instead [Command][S].
Thanks jernst and Martin for the info. This is in fact duplicate of issue 89548 - the fix for that fixed this one too, so the shortcut already works in 6.0 M6 and newer. I'm marking this as a duplicate of that, thanks for reporting. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 89548 ***
