             Summary: Netbeans Maven:Java Application when run several times creates multiple instances (once for each time run), resulting in a port confilct
                 Key: NETBEANS-42
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-42
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: apisupport - Project
    Affects Versions: 8.2
         Environment: Ubuntu Linux 17.04
            Reporter: Ken McWilliams
            Priority: Trivial


I generally use JEE and Glassfish to create web applications, however I've created a web application using Jetty which does not require a container. However each time I run the application I have to manually stop the currently running instance. This doesn't take long but it is a bit of a pain. I would like a smoother development cycle, I'm sure it can be automated at the command line and will do so, but I think it should be a pretty common issue.

I'm creating my project using NB 8.2. File -> New Project -> Under Categories selecting "Maven", Under Projects "Java Application"

Each time the project is run, a new running instance is deployed, such that after 5 runs there are 5 running programs (well that would normally be the case for this type of application but because of a port conflict I must stop the previous instance).

Any of the following would be a viable solution:

    Ideally, if their is a running instance of the program it is compiled and relaunched on save, don't know if this is possible outside of a container like Glassfish.
    The application kills any previous deployment and compiles and runs a new instance when "Run Project" button is pressed (F6).
    Anything else that meets this intention.
