Project pane context menus for .proto files are missing normal Netbeans options (eg Delete, Rename, Properties etc)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to Projects Window and select a C++ project
2. Right-click on any file within the project that's not a .proto file
3. Within this context menu I get the options "Remove From Project, Delete,
Rename, Local History >, Subversion >, Tools >, Properties"
4. Right-click on a .proto file within the project - all of the above menu
options are missing.

This is using Protobuf plugin v 2.0.1 (Generator v 2.0.3) on Netbeans 6.7,
Ubuntu 9.04:

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.7 (Build 200906241340)
Java: 1.6.0_16; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 14.2-b01
System: Linux version 2.6.28-15-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_GB (nb)

protoc supports negative numbers for default values

Type the following message into any proto file created by the plugin.

message request {
    optional sint32 content_length = 1 [default = -1];
}

The plugin should see this as a valid protobuf message.
The plugin reports the line with the "-1" as being in error.
Protoc processed the message as expected.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I am using Netbeans 6.7.1 and ProtobufEditor 1.0.3. 
Problem occurs on both ubuntu 9.04 and winxp.

Please provide any additional information below.
I reviewed the nbs file from svn and see the problem is in the parsing. I 
do not know this parsing technology well enough to create the rules for 
parsing the default value based on the defined type as is done in 
parser.cc.

Pliki są generowane w katalogu $PROJECT/build a nie w $PROJECT/src

   Pliki są generowane w katalogu $PROJECT/build a nie w $PROJECT/src
Winik tego zjawiska :
1. Pliki *.java nie są niedostępne dla kompilacji
2. Pliki *.java są kasowane po każdej operacji clean.

Teraz: musze kopiować każdorazowo pliki *.java do gałęzi packa
Poprzednia wersja pluginu tego nie miała, na ile pamiętam.

P.S. Przepraszam, że nie po angielsku, oraz przepraszam za mój niedoskonały 
polski ( nie jest to mój język ojczysty).

Not able to find ProtobufTemplates

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I was following the instructions on 
http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-netbeans-plugin/ to install the plugin.

In Installation-8. I could only find ProtobufGenerator, ProtobufConfiguration 
and ProtobufEditor in the AvailablePlugins tab. I could not find 
ProtobufTemplates. 

I'm not sure this is the reason I am getting the following error:

"Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-antrun-plugin:1.3:run

Remove (or mask) delay between typing the proto file and parsed form that is available for hints/code completion

There is some time (2-3 sec) in Schliemmann between last char typed and the
moment when the syntax tree is available parsed. It causes the code
completion to be not up to date.

Integration with project's build lifecycle

The generation should be done automatically just before compilation.

Geertjan showed some listener to support this operation.

I don't see protobuf tab in my C++ project

I have a Netbeans 7.1.1 C++ Application project. I have couple of proto files 
in my project. I installed latest protobuf plugin. I set the protoc path to the 
right folder. When I open my project properties, I see tabs for C++, C, Linker 
etc under build. I don't see protobuf tab as described here.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Joe

Integrate with Maven projects

When using the "Regenerate files from this definition" on a .proto file in a 
Maven project, the generated Java files are put in src/test/java.

I don't find an option anywhere to tell the plugin to store the files in any 
other folder, as code placed in src/test/java is not included in the resulting 
jar file.

--proto_path=/ is not good solution on Windows

I installed your protocol buffers netbeans plugin for Netbeans on Windows.
When I try to generate a java file from a .proto file, I get the following
error message:

running: C:\Users\Thaler\bin\protoc.exe --proto_path="/"  --java_out
"C:\projects\ProtoTest\src" "C:\projects\ProtoTest\src\prototest\Person.proto"
C:\projects\ProtoTest\src\prototest\Person.proto: File does not reside
within any path specified using --proto_path (or -I).  You must specify a
--proto_path which encompasses this file.
Exit: 1

I thing the problem is that --proto_path="/" should be --proto_path="c:\"
on Windows. However, executing

c:\projects\ProtoTest\src\prototest>C:\Users\Thaler\bin\protoc.exe
--proto_path=
"c:\"  --java_out "C:\projects\ProtoTest\src"
"C:\projects\ProtoTest\src\protote
st\Person.proto"
c:"  --java_out C:\projects\ProtoTest\src
C:\projects\ProtoTest\src\prototest\Pe
rson.proto: warning: directory does not exist.
Missing input file.

Gives some error message. Executing the same in cygwin with replacing "\"
by "/" works.

Can you give me any hints how to get your netbeans-plugin working under
windows?

Regenerate for single file needs more config options

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Right click on a proto file that is not located in the root of the project 
and choose Regenerate files from...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to run protoc on the file and generate source, but it fails to find 
the import dependencies.  

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
netbeans 6.9.1 plugin version 2.1.2.212

Please provide any additional information below.

I have all my proto files in src/protobuf, not the root.  I was able to easily 
hack the protobuf-build.xml to give me what I want when I do a full project 
build.  It would be great to have the single file work, but I assume that qould 
require adding in the ability to override the args by a new setting under the 
project properties.

The ProtobufGeneratorRunnable constructor takes in additional args, but is 
currently being passed "".

Plugin doesn't appear to be available for download

Trying to install the netbeans plugin (into NB6.7), but the plugin installer 
is unable to connect to 

http://protobuf-netbeans-
plugin.googlecode.com/svn/distr/latest_stable/updates.xml/pl-waw-tabor-
netbeans-protobuf-templates.nbm 

I tried to browse directly to that URL but got a not-found error, so I guess 
somehow the plugin has been removed.

GroupLayout bug on mac os/x with jdk 1.5

If you install the protobuf plugin on a mac os/x you get a GroupLayout error.
This is because jdk 1.5 is set to default on mac platforms.

Enum definitions outside of message declared as errors

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a proto file using the default template.
2. Create an enum type.
3. The syntax parser gives an "unexpected token" error.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Declaring enum outside of a message is valid, the expected output is for no
errors to appear.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Protobuf Editor reports 2.0.1, Netbeans 6.8.

Please provide any additional information below.

No error report when a proto file has errors in it

When you create a .proto file which has either syntax or reference errors all 
you get is "Exit 1" when you generate files from the definition. Some basic 
error reporting beyond this would be a huge improvement.

The only solution to this at present is to comment out sections of the .proto 
file until you get something that will generate and then add parts back in 
until you get an error. Not exactly programmer friendly.

Please support netbeans 7.1 and protobuf 2.4.x

protobuf classes are not regenerated when a project is cleaned and build

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open the attached project
2. change protobuf-java-2.0.3.jar (also attached) reference, so that it compiles
3. right-click on protobuftest and select "Clean and Build"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect that the protobuf clases are regenerated from the .proto files 
if you select "Clean and Build". However, this is not the case. Our project has 
hundreds of .proto files and it is very inconvenient to right-click all of them 
and regenerate them by hand. As a workaround I copy the generated protobuf 
classes somewhere else everytime I rebuild the project and copy them back after 
"Clean and Build" and build the project again.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Netbeans 6.9 with version 2.1.0 of the protobuf-netbeans-plugin on Windows 7. I 
tried this with Netbeans 6.9 on Debian SID with exactly the same result.

2.1.0 requires libraries that are *newer* than those provided in official NB 6.9!

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Follow the prescribed setup process for on-line installation of the plugin.
2. Select all 4 ProtoBuff plugin modules.
3. Start installation.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
- I expected these modules to be installed straight, but I get notification 
that I need newer version of some libraries, and org.openide.util.lookup [See 
attached picture]...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- I have NetBeans 6.9 installed, using it on both GNU/Linux and Windows Vista.

Please provide any additional information below.
- I think the screenshot is self-explanatory. I have managed to install newer 
JUnit 4, but cannot find from where to download and install other two plugins...

"Regenerate files from ..." places java files in the test source directory

- Create default "web maven project". 
- Integrate spring, protobuf etc. 
- create two source folders src/main/java (java sources) and src/test/java 
(junit tests)
- Create .proto file in src/main/resources/protobuf/message.proto
- Select "regenerate file from ..." 

Protobuf-plugin generates file in the src/test/java folder (under correct 
package location written in the .proto file).

Editing a .proto file often hangs Netbeans 7.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Choose a .proto file in the project


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect it to be able to edit the .proto file, instead I have to kill the 
Netbeans task and restart

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
latest version of protobuf, version 7.01 of Netbeans on Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
The plugin is great except for this and very limited error reporting, if you 
make a mistake you have to comment out sections of the .proto file so you can 
narrow down where the issue is.

It is possible to compile .proto files for C++ within a C++ project?

If add a .proto file to my C++ project, and select "Regenerate files from
this definition", it generates null/protobuf-java/myfile.java but not C++
files.

The output:

running: /usr/bin/protoc --proto_path="/myprojectpath" --java_out
"/myprojectpath/null/protobuf-java" "/myprojectpath/templates/myfile.proto"
Exit: 0


Within a Java project, I can see the option to generate C++ code as per
your screenshot
http://protobuf-netbeans-plugin.googlecode.com/svn/site/img/buildIntegration.jpe
g

However I don't actually get any C++ files generated - it creates a
./build/generated-sources/protobuf-cpp directory, but no files within that.

In any case, what I want is to enabling this within a C++ project.  Is this
supported?  If not, do you plan to support this?

I'm using Netbeans 6.7 on Ubuntu 9, with version 2.0 of the plugin.
