I'm writing my own Dashboard plugin that extends the DashboardPortlet class 
from the Dashboard Plugin.  My jelly UI is working great and I can databind 
to my Java model via the getFoo() convention.  At initialization / 
construction time I'd like to load an XML file to populate a few public 
properties, however my DataBoundConstructor is not being called and I don't 
see what I'm doing wrong.  Here should be the relevant code snippets (less 
imports, etc):

public class Dashboard extends DashboardPortlet {

    // This constructor does not appear to be called
    @DataBoundConstructor
    public Dashboard(final String name) {
        super(name);

        // Ideally I'd like to load the xml file here
        // LoadXmlFileAndPopulatePublicProperties("myfile");
    }

    // This getter function is successfully called from my jelly script
    public String getFooName() {
        return "Foo";
    }

    // In case it matters, I'm also defining a descriptor
    @Extension(optional = true)
    public static class MyDashboardDescriptor extends 
Descriptor<DashboardPortlet> {
        @Override
        public String getDisplayName() {
            return "MyDashboardDescriptor";
        }   
    }
}

My Jelly script is effectively just displaying Foo :

<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:x="jelly:xml" 
xmlns:html="jelly:html">
    <html>
          // contents of public getters is display in an html table here
    </html>
</j:jelly>

I'm developing on Windows 7 using NetBeans 7.2.1 and debugging the java 
plugin through the built in NetBeans debugger.  Any suggestions as to what 
I'm doing wrong would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Kris
