[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-1802) Problem with loading a project
which has 2 different project files
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1802?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16904515#comment-16904515 ]
Eric Bresie commented on NETBEANS-1802:
---------------------------------------
Was curious if an "Eclipse" feature comment would be relevant here...
In Eclipses,a given project can have different "Facets" configured for a given project. So if for example, a project includes Gradle files, then the project is configured to have that Facet added/configured; if "EJB" related files/functionality are applicable, the given "EJB" equivalent Facet is configured for the project.
As part of this, the decorations on the given project icon gives indication of type based on added icon indicators on the project.
So assume if some "project" configuration meta data can either be automatically determined (based on the applicable build files) or could be manually added to some netbean project metadata file, could something like this be usable here?

> Most of the comments are inside of the external ticket, but I will summerize it:
> When I have a project, with 2 different project related files like pom.xml and package.json. One is always winning. In my case, pom is winning.
> I had a html5 project, where NetBeans found package.json and everything was fine, because it is a HTML5 project. After some infrastucture changes in my company, using nexus to put artifacts on the repo, we had to add pom.xml files for nexus. Now, after opening NetBeans, the project turns into a maven based project, which is not correct. Only this one file and some infrastructure files, which are not project sourcecode related are needed for nexus.
> Now, because NetBeans things this is a maven project, I can't set the sass compilation anymore or the folder structure is wrong.
> This always happen, if the project loader finds a project specific file and will change the project for that. This happens for pom.xml for example and for this plugin here: https://github.com/tropyx/NetBeansPuppet
> It turns a project into a puppet project and this is even more worse. Here is another discussion about the problem: https://github.com/tropyx/NetBeansPuppet/issues/27
> I know, that NetBeans acts like it was designed but this isn't nice and created problems. I only have one solution which could be ok. Give the user a notification that a project type were found, like for node support and let the user choose whether I want to change the project type or not.
> So for me, I have a HTML5 Project with a package.json file and it should be as it is. If NetBeans found the pom file it should give me the hint whether I want to change it or not.
> If you open NetBeans with a project with two files, I want to choose as what I want to treat the project and it should be saved. Like a project switcher.
> I added a sample project to it to make it clear.
> We can set it back to Major, but I think this is a big problem for multiple project files.
> Cheers
> Chris
