Description Jesse Glick 2003-04-09 03:42:09 UTC

As mentioned on nbui, it would be nice to have
support for the JavaBeans archiver in JDK 1.4. I
have a working prototype in contrib/archiver;
download:

http://contrib.netbeans.org/servlets/ProjectDownloadList?action=download&dlID=312

- recognizes *.xml files created by the archiver

- gives them InstanceCookie

- select any .java, .ser, .class, or archiver .xml
file and choose Tools -> Customize Archived Bean,
customize it, save as XML

Should be merged into regular Customize Bean
action, as suggested on nbui.

Also, the Beans template category should include a
template for a PersistenceDelegate. And the
BeanInfo generator should provide a GUI for
setting a persistence delegate for a bean class.
