---------------------------------------
Summary: Support environment variables in file path dialogs
Key: NETBEANS-2990
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2990
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 11.0
Environment: Windows 10
Reporter: dennis lucero
In standard Windows file path choosers it is possible to use environment
variables. For example, entering %userprofile% as the file name would change
the directory to the user’s profile path.
In NetBeans this is not supported. When entering a variable like %userprofile%,
this is taken as the literal file name. When saving a file, the file is saved
with the wrong file name, the dialog is closed and it takes some effort to
delete the wrongly named file and save it at the intended location. Opening a
project should also support variables.
The NetBeans file chooser is used even if the Look & Feel is set to “Windows”
and “Maximize use of native look and feel” is enabled.
