In multi-modules project, group module by their parent pom
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: MEVENIDE-559
URL:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEVENIDE-559 Project: mevenide
Issue Type: Wish
Components: mevenide-netbeans
Environment: NetBeans 6.0-M10
Mavenide installed with Netbeans Plugin Manager
Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
Assignee: Milos Kleint
Priority: Minor
Every Maven modules are currently listed in alphabetical order in the Projects window. When we mount two or more multi-modules projects, the modules from various projects are interleaved, which is quite confusing. Things get worst when different projects contain modules with identical name. Real world example: GeoTools and GeoServer are two open source multi-modules Maven 2 projects, and both of them contain a module called "main". Those two projects share a common pool of developpers, who often work on both projects in same time. Opening those projects with current Mavenide gives Projects window like below (simplified list):
{noformat}
Projects
+-- Main module
+-- Main module
+-- Metadata
+-- Referencing services
+-- Web Map Service Module
{noformat}
A would like the ability (as an option) to get a tree view like below:
{noformat}
Projects
+-- GeoServer
| +-- Main module
| +-- Web Map Service Module
+-- GeoTools
+-- Main module
+-- Metadata
+-- Referencing services
{noformat}
where "GeoTools" and "GeoServer" are the name found in parent {{pom.xml}}.
I'm aware of NetBeans 6 "Project Groups" feature, but this request is not about opening and closing many projects as a unit. It is about keeping all those projects open (because we work on all of them together) while preserving their grouping in order to make easier to navigate through the quite numerous GeoTools/GeoServer modules...
