How do you make NetBeans ignore files when searching for files?

You can configure include/exclude file patterns on a project by project basis. This feature will allow you to add an exclude pattern for your 'tmp' directory, which will stop 'Go to File' suggesting files contained in this directory.

What version of Netbeans is this feature in. I don't see it in 6.9.1 – Failpunk Jun 15 at 19:52 +1 Such a handy feature... Didn't even know it existed until your post. Thanks!

In my version of Netbeans (6.9.1 on Win 7), there is no button under Project Properties -> Source in which to enter exclusion patterns. You have to go to Tools -> Options -> Miscellaneous -> Files and add the necessary file names or extensions under "files ignored by the IDE" in the Ignored Files Pattern field regexp. For ignoring an entire folder, it is (in my version) on the project properties screen, but not under Sources; instead look at the "Ignored Folders" category.

In NetBeans 7 you go to "Project Properties" then to "Ignored Folders" and you just add your folders there.

A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
