[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1410?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel=16649372#comment-16649372 ] Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-1410: -- I understand your point. The thing is how it is communicated, IMHO. Could be one part of it. What I can say the freedom would be awesome and if we would like to find a solution I mean the sections of GEN-EDIT (Guarded/Blocked code) could be optional. First you have the comment like "// Generated Code - DON'T MODIFY" That's good but it could be like this: *// Generated Code - Modify on your own risk* With a link to a documentation of that editor feature. And it could be still guarded/blocked but what about an advanced option to make it not blocked anymore? For some advanced users like us or of course others? How does that sounds? > Remove the blocking code section in java files for swing > > > Key: NETBEANS-1410 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1410 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: guibuilder - Binding, guibuilder - Code >Affects Versions: Next >Reporter: Christian Lenz >Priority: Major > > Please give us the freedom to remove the code and not create guarded blocks. > I have often the problem, that I want to remove code, that I accidentally > added via the GUI designer like double clicking the button (I always think > that I can change the label on it, no it will create an action listener for > it).

I doubt, however, that every user will understand when their manually edited code disappears as the form editor re-generates the code. Are there data to believe everyone will understand this and won't (rightfully, if you ask me) complain? To me, that looks like a data loss, which is always very bad. > Remove the blocking code section in java files for swing > > > Key: NETBEANS-1410 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1410 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: guibuilder - Binding, guibuilder - Code >Affects Versions: Next >Reporter: Christian Lenz >Priority: Major > > Please give us the freedom to remove the code and not create guarded blocks. > I have often the problem, that I want to remove code, that I accidentally > added via the GUI designer like double clicking the button (I always think > that I can change the label on it, no it will create an action listener for > it).

And the people will know that this is not a two-way editor which is also totally fine. After they see the changes and what happen, they will understand. The thing is that this is a big restriction and we should be not that restricted at all. Some people likes it, some not and often you found question like, how can I delete/change the code that is guarded. Maybe we should discuss it more or less at the mailing list, because I can see, that this could be not an easy topic. > Remove the blocking code section in java files for swing > > > Key: NETBEANS-1410 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1410 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: guibuilder - Binding, guibuilder - Code >Affects Versions: Next >Reporter: Christian Lenz >Priority: Major > > Please give us the freedom to remove the code and not create guarded blocks. > I have often the problem, that I want to remove code, that I accidentally > added via the GUI designer like double clicking the button (I always think > that I can change the label on it, no it will create an action listener for > it).

So any manual change may be lost. Of course, some developers may be fine with that (e.g. never opening the file again in the form editor), but I doubt most developers will understand the form editor is not a two-way editor. > Remove the blocking code section in java files for swing > > > Key: NETBEANS-1410 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1410 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: guibuilder - Binding, guibuilder - Code >Affects Versions: Next >Reporter: Christian Lenz >Priority: Major > > Please give us the freedom to remove the code and not create guarded blocks. > I have often the problem, that I want to remove code, that I accidentally > added via the GUI designer like double clicking the button (I always think > that I can change the label on it, no it will create an action listener for > it).
