Community Contributed Docs

Posted by Jeffrey Rubinoff on Jul 30 2009, 01:09:17 PM CEST
We have a program for NetBeans users to submit their own tutorials, tips and tricks, and how-to docs. It's called Community Docs, and the portal is at http://wiki.netbeans.org/CommunityDocs. It's very popular. However, there have been no submissions from PHP developers! So, I was thinking, perhaps none of you know about it? If any of you have any cool examples of apps that would be the basis of a nice tutorial, or have tips for other users, please consider posting a full description over there. It's a big help to everyone.

Ignored folders? Sure!

Posted by Tomas Mysik on Jul 17 2009, 01:47:06 PM CEST

Today, I would like to introduce you a very nice feature that many (really many) of you wanted to see and use. In the development version of NetBeans, one can ignore project's folders - what does it mean? It means that one can specify folders that are not visible in the UI but mainly, they are not scanned and indexed (example of such folder could be a directory with generated documentation etc.). Have a look at Project Properties dialog:

Ignored Folders

Please notice that due to bug 168460, IDE must be restarted.

That's all for today, as always, please test it and report all the issues or enhancements you find in NetBeans IssueZilla (component php, subcomponent project).

Minor improvements in FTP/SFTP

Posted by Tomas Mysik on Jul 13 2009, 10:39:35 AM CEST

Today, I'm going to write a very short blog post about 2 minor improvements in FTP/SFTP support in NetBeans.

The first improvement is providing detailed information about the file transfer progress (uploading as well as downloading) and we hope that many our users will find it useful. The information is based on file size so it should be quite accurate.

File Transfer Progress

The other improvement is more UI enhancement but again, we hope that it will be useful as well.

Transfer Summary in Colors

As I promised, this blog post was very short but please, do not forget to test it and report all the issues or enhancements you find in NetBeans IssueZilla (component php, subcomponent ftp support).
