-----------------------------------------
Summary: Non-shared AuxiliaryInformation persisted in var/
Key: NETBEANS-5711
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5711
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Components: projects - Gradle Java EE, projects - Maven
Affects Versions: 12.4
Reporter: Svatopluk Dedic
Assignee: Laszlo Kishalmi
The implementation of *gradle* and *maven* project stores non-shared project
*AuxiliaryConfiguration* contents as FileObject attributes which in turn is
stored in *$nbuser/var* area. That are is however relatively 'transient' -
although it's not in *cache* dir, which can be routinely wiped out by some
users (e.g. in case of problems with the IDE), it is still outside of *conf*
area that holds IDE configuration.
In addition, if a different userdir is used for the IDE run, these settings are
lost / not propagated, which can be seen as a bug or as a feature :)
An alternative approach to *AuxiliaryConfiguration* can be developed that uses
*UserDefinedAttributeView* from NIO - could work on all major platforms
*including Windows.*
**I am not sure about having this implemented directly in FileSystem layer as
some users may see the userdir-scoped storage as a feature. But definitely we
can make a stock implementation in Project API, that will obey a setting: to
work as it is now or use NIO APIs.
