Description santhosh 2005-11-16 23:30:05 UTC

I am very glad to see that you guys have removed the java and form modules
dependency for editor.options module in 5.0 beta2.

I still have 2 suggestions:

1: don't show the "view package as" option if
"org.netbeans.modules.java.project.PackageViewSettings" class is not found.

currently it logs ClassNotFoundException to logfile and still shows this option.

2: don't show the "Indentation" tab in Editor option if there is no EditorKit
installed for "text/java" contenttype

Above two changes will not effect the Netbeans IDE, but still allow
editor.options module to use in platform based applications.

currently I find only these two options unrelated to normal applications.

currently I have to create a patch jar for this module so that i can hide them :(

To late for nb5.0. Doable for the next release.
