---------------------------------------

             Summary: Please add support for JSNI
                 Key: NETBEANS-206
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-206
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: java - Editor
    Affects Versions: Next
            Reporter: Christian Lenz


I figured out that you will add support for Mixed development support between 
C/C++ and Java in netbeans 8.1: http://wiki.netbeans.org/NewAndNoteworthyNB81. 
I really like that for JNI and JNA but what about mixed development support for 
Java and Javascript like GWT and the JSNI functions? I have to use GWT in our 
company and it is really hard to find out errors when you only see commented 
methods like:

{code}
public static native void alert(String msg) /*-{
  $wnd.alert(msg);
}-*/;
{code}


I know there is a plugin called GWT4NB but for now, I don't see any benefits to 
use this. Here is a description for JSNI: 
http://www.gwtproject.org/doc/latest/DevGuideCodingBasicsJSNI.html

This would be a big enhancement to have syntax highlighting, navigation to JS 
files like with C/C++ and Java, have code completion, and so on.


Regards

Chris
