This (subjectively important) feature works on NetBeans 8.2. I skipped NetBeans
9 (can't say anything about whether it works there), and on NetBeans 10 it's
broken now.
*The Problem:* With a typical and frequent construct like {{<%@include
file="[file]"%>}} in a JSP file, if you clicked {{[file]}} with the Ctrl key
pressed, in previous versions of NetBeans it would open the referenced file
(similarly to Ctrl+<click>ing an identifier in a Java file). This was
particularly useful with relative paths into a different directory which is
hard or time-consuming to navigate to in the project tree.
*Current behavior on NetBeans 10:* The feature only marks part of the
reference. Like this:
!image-2019-03-21-23-18-38-400.png!
More importantly: If you click, nothing happens. The file does not get opened.
*Expected behavior:* It should behave like NetBeans 8.2 where pressing Ctrl and
hovering over the reference would mark everything between the quotes (e.g.
"header.jsp") and the click would directly navigate there/open the file/bring
it to foreground.
*Workaround:* I found a temporary workaround that is a little tedious if needed
all the time, but at least you can still follow includes somehow: If you
prepend the path with "./" and click the dot, it works.
Example:
!image-2019-03-21-23-27-25-748.png!
doesn't work.
However,
!image-2019-03-21-23-26-03-612.png!
does work: It marks the whole reference upon hovering on it, and when you
click, it navigates there.
I stress that you have to click the dot. Everywhere else still doesn't work:
