Hi Jürgen,
in the newest version of the NB Plug-in I found something strange: when
I create (or load an existing) UNO component project, the plug-in
creates an extra "virtual" folder [i.e. visible on the "Project" tree
view, but not really existing on the file system, also not on the "File"
tree view], named "OXT". See picture in
http://www.ArielConstenlaHaile.com.ar/ooo/temp/NBPlugin_OXT_folder.png
This "virtual" folder contains the non-java files that are placed on the
"<default-package>" (usually, the manifest.xml, description.xml, *.xcs,
*.xcu, etc.).
Is this an issue, or a new feature? if the last, what is the point? I
can't see it.
it's of course a feature and t provides an additional view on oxt
specific content that is otherwise not directly visible in the project
view.
We separate for example xcs/xcu files under a new directory "registry"
in the project root. We put dialogs (*.xdl) under dialogs, *xhp under
a help folder. All this i viewed in the new virtual folder o provide
easy access on these files from the project view. Otherwise you have
to switch always between project and files view.
We think this new structure helps to organize an office related
project and it helps to have a good project structure in place. A
project structure that can be easy integrated in the normal build env
of OO.org.
OK, I see the point; anyway I still consider an issue that the
description.xml and uno-extension-manifest.xml appear *twice*: once in
the new virtual folder named "OXT", and in the "<default package>"; this
last one is because they are placed inside the "src" system folder (a
solution will be moving them to the root project folder or a new one).
My point is that the description.xml and uno-extension-manifest.xml
appear *twice* in the tree view, not the other registry files et al.,
and dummy people like me may think they are *duplicated*, and try to
*delete* these files... [lucky me NB can revert such dummy things].
it's a valid point and thanks for your feedback. We will think about a
better solution for the next version.

Ariel.
