Description kevin yong 2001-10-26 17:17:38 UTC 
can we set entire netBeans developement as netBeans IDE's project? which means 
using exsiting netBeans binary IDE to edit the netBeans sources and compile 
next version of netBeans binary.
Now, we can download netBeans binary and source packages separately. To build a 
new binary from source we need use Ant/Pearl. Why dont we setup the source 
package as a project of dowloaded binary, then we can develop netBeans 
completely inside netBeans?
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2001-10-26 17:40:11 UTC 
As a workaround you can do that already, you have Ant integration
module, which can build NetBeans using the provided buildscripts.
And we are working on a new project system - although it will take yet
quite a few months to get at least something.
Moving to projects module :-)
Comment 2 Jan Chalupa 2001-11-27 15:40:49 UTC 
Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Comment 3 Pavel Buzek 2002-01-02 10:15:04 UTC 
no enhancements for 3.3.1, better support then Svata described needs enhancements in projects
Comment 4 Vitezslav Stejskal 2003-11-26 14:33:59 UTC 
As described in
http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=619519&listName=nbdiscuss
the current work on projects prototype has been stopped. Leaving still
open since it is valid RFE.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2004-03-19 13:01:34 UTC 
In progress using new build system.
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2004-04-25 18:04:30 UTC 
Passing to Michal.
Comment 7 rbalada 2005-02-10 18:18:34 UTC 
Shouldn't this issue be converted to "umbrella issue"?

I guess, that filing separate ENHANCEMENT issues against all not yet
projectized modules and make this issue blocked by them could be good
solution.
Comment 8 Jesse Glick 2005-04-09 16:27:37 UTC 
I want this fixed for 4.2. We are nearly there.
Comment 9 Jesse Glick 2005-05-19 16:04:52 UTC 
*** Issue 38219 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
Comment 10 Jesse Glick 2005-12-31 20:04:53 UTC 
Almost completed; just a couple of modules missing in 5.0.
Comment 11 Jesse Glick 2006-02-03 18:16:12 UTC 
Did tomcatint/tomcat5/bundled, just ide/branding left.
Comment 12 Jesse Glick 2006-04-04 01:24:20 UTC 
jtulach did ide/branding so done I guess.
