Re: [xmlvm-users] NetBeans plugin for XMLVM

[Panayotis K. <pan...@pa...>]

I had a look at the plugin.
It is a good start, that someone with knowledge of Netbeans have started such a project.
Thank you Normen!


I have some comments, what would be ideal, from my point of view:

1) In the new project wizard, select as early as possible the type of the project, as is with the other Netbeans projects; i.e. instead of selecting "New XMLVM project", to be able to select either "New XMLVM iOS based project" or "New XMLVM Android based project" or "Migrate existing Android project to XMLVM"

2) There is a problem somewhere with the creation of the project and its name. The command line option is smart and changes the name of the project accordingly to the containing folder name, if the user is lazy to provide a valid project name - as well as the opposite. With the plugin you should bypass this mechanism. Since the user is already providing the project name, make sure that both both, the output folder AND the project name is provided when creating the project, or funny things might happen.
