Description

Interface Summary

ActionProvider	Ability for a project to have various actions (e.g.
AuxiliaryConfiguration	Ability for a project to permit other modules to insert arbitrary metadata into the project storage area.
AuxiliaryProperties	Allow to store arbitrary properties in the project, similarly as AuxiliaryConfiguration.
CacheDirectoryProvider	Ability for a project to permit other modules to store arbitrary cache data associated with the project.
CopyOperationImplementation	Project Copy Operation.
DataFilesProviderImplementation	Base for various Project Operations, allows to gather metadata and data files for a project.
DeleteOperationImplementation	Project Delete Operation.
FileOwnerQueryImplementation	Knowledge of which project some files belong to.
LookupMerger<T>	Allows project lookup to merge instances of known classes and replace them with single instance.
LookupProvider	interface for inclusion of 3rd party content in project's lookup.
MoveOperationImplementation	Project Rename/Move Operation.
MoveOrRenameOperationImplementation	A preferred substitute for MoveOperationImplementation to be used when the project can behave more simply, efficiently, and robustly when it is simply being renamed (code and/or display name) without actually being moved to a new location.
ProjectConfiguration	Represents one user-selectable configuration of a particular project.
ProjectConfigurationProvider<C extends ProjectConfiguration>	Provider of configurations for a project.
ProjectFactory	Create in-memory projects from disk directories.
ProjectFactory2	Create in-memory projects from disk directories.
ProjectState	Callback permitting Projects to inform the ProjectManager of important lifecycle events.
SourceGroupModifierImplementation	The SPI side of SourceGroupModifier.
SubprojectProvider	Optional ability of projects which may have a list of "subprojects".

Class Summary

SingleMethod

Structure representing an identification of a single method/function in a file.

Annotation Types Summary

LookupMerger.Registration	Registers a lookup merger for some project types.
LookupProvider.Registration	Annotation to register LookupProvider instances.
LookupProvider.Registration.ProjectType
ProjectServiceProvider	Like LookupProvider but registers a single object into a project's lookup.

Package org.netbeans.spi.project Description

Support for defining project types.

Each kind of project in the system needs to be loaded by a ProjectFactory, which defines how to recognize projects on disk, load their metadata into memory, and save their metadata back to disk. ProjectState is used to let the factory mark a project as being modified in memory.

Projects will normally put implementations of several interfaces such as ActionProvider into their lookup.
