Native2Ascii plugin for netbeans 6.5

After some time of finding myself I am back... 2 days ago my friend and colleague ask me if I know about netbeans feature to convert native characters to ASCII. Same as native2ascii command line but integrated in netbeans editor. Quick answer in my mind: There has to be some plugin, so UTFG... After googling by myself I found only this one. It looks well, but there is no integration with netbeans editor.
So what I did? I wrote plug-in according to my vision. I know it's not good approach to use native characters in java source at all. Better idea is using properties bundles. But sometimes it's OK, when you want to write some small piece of code which is used only by yourself.
Some screenshots:

1. You can use java editor hint:

I am a netbeans fan, so what...

Time ago I read some blogs about ftp support for php projects in netbeans. I was thinking... Why ftp only? Where's support for SFTP and other protocols? It should be great to have an abstract API for remote file systems and lot of implementations for other protocols. So I started to look into netbeans sources. I found remotefs project in contrib repository. I was thinking: "it's great to see this. Netbeans for PHP must use this". So I started implementation of SFTP protocol. When I was in half of my work I looked into sources of netbeans php modules.
And what I discover? It uses own implementation of FTP protocol. Hmmm, so what now???

Because my primary targer was php module, I didn't know why should I continue write this plug-in. So I decided to rewrite remotefs API and it's implementation to more abstract level because it looks like it's tightly coupled with FTP protocol implementation.

Now I am releasing first alpha quality release. Maybe this is good starting point for integration of this plug-in into existing netbeans features...

You can download it here.
If you are interested in sources are available via mercurial repository.

PS: These modules uses same namespace (package) as mentioned project remotefs in main/contrib. So don't install this modules when you already have it installed.

SerialVersionUID generator v1.9 for Netbeans 6.5 nightly builds

As I mentioned generator v1.3 is not compatible with api changes in 6.5 dev builds. So I created serialVersionUID generator v1.9 that supports 6.5 nightly builds... You can download nbm here.

SerialVersionUID generator v1.3 for Netbeans 6.1

Today I updated new version of generator for serialVersionUID field. It generates default value (1L) or generated value from source code. You can use it as java editor hint or code generator.



Iteresting is that it generates uid in correct way only for some cases. Correct way I mean sun's javac. Algorithm uses uses this directions to calculate value. Maybe there is problem with descriptors of fields, methods and constructors. I'll investigate it to create patch. But if you want to participate sources are in this mercurial repository.

Download plugin.

This version doesn't work with 6.5 nightly builds. See this post.

Generating of serialVersionUID in Netbeans 6.0+

Hello,

some time ago I wrote question about generator of serialVersionUID in netbeans. After that I saw issue in bugzilla describing this problem. I decided to write this plug-in because I can't see any progress on this issue. For now it generates only default serialVersionUID = 1L. I am working on hash method that generates serialVersionUID from fields and methods. You can find plug-in on netbeans plug-in site.

Thanks to geertjan's posts Fixable hint and Java Hint Generator development was really easy.

Note: Third picture shows code generator which works only in netbeans 6.1-dev. You can download plug-in for 6.1-dev from this location.
