Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-1802:
------------------------------------------

Yes and nowadays it is back again, as you can see it. I got a new project from 
an other team where they merged package.json and a pom.xml into one folder 
where one sub folder is the client project but NetBeans doesn't no it, because 
the package json is not in this folder. There is no freedom in that point, 
NetBeans forces the user the first project that it figures out. And, it still 
happens, if you have a maven project, with a puppet file and u use the puppet 
plugin. NetBeans now forces the puppet project type, where there are no maven 
actions anymore. I can't be the only one who has this problem and if this is 
so, this is a big reason for me, to change the IDE or editor, because I can't 
work with NetBeans in this case anymore. And why I added it back again to Jira 
is, that I still have the use case now.

> Most of the comments are inside of the external ticket, but I will summerize 
> it:
> When I have a project, with 2 different project related files like pom.xml 
> and package.json. One is always winning. In my case, pom is winning.
> I had a html5 project, where NetBeans found package.json and everything was 
> fine, because it is a HTML5 project. After some infrastucture changes in my 
> company, using nexus to put artifacts on the repo, we had to add pom.xml 
> files for nexus. Now, after opening NetBeans, the project turns into a maven 
> based project, which is not correct. Only this one file and some 
> infrastructure files, which are not project sourcecode related are needed for 
> nexus.
> Now, because NetBeans things this is a maven project, I can't set the sass 
> compilation anymore or the folder structure is wrong.
> This always happen, if the project loader finds a project specific file and 
> will change the project for that. This happens for pom.xml for example and 
> for this plugin here: https://github.com/tropyx/NetBeansPuppet
> It turns a project into a puppet project and this is even more worse. Here is 
> another discussion about the problem: 
> https://github.com/tropyx/NetBeansPuppet/issues/27
> I know, that NetBeans acts like it was designed but this isn't nice and 
> created problems. I only have one solution which could be ok. Give the user a 
> notification that a project type were found, like for node support and let 
> the user choose whether I want to change the project type or not.
> So for me, I have a HTML5 Project with a package.json file and it should be 
> as it is. If NetBeans found the pom file it should give me the hint whether I 
> want to change it or not.
> If you open NetBeans with a project with two files, I want to choose as what 
> I want to treat the project and it should be saved. Like a project switcher.
> I added a sample project to it to make it clear.
> We can set it back to Major, but I think this is a big problem for multiple 
> project files.
> Cheers
> Chris
