Re: Use file templates inside a project template

Hi.

I just created a new module project following this tutorial: 
https://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-projectsamples.html

I uploaded it to github, here: 
https://github.com/naggety/Netbeans-MyCustomProjType

This is just a custom template C/C++ project. Inside the zip file of the 
project template, there is a 'main.c' file that I need to be processed 
by freemarker when the new project is created (this way, the text 
'${user}' in the file will be replaced with the user name). I tried to 
achieve this in the way I described in my first message, but it didn't work.

As I said, there is a tutorial about file templates, but not for file 
templates inside project templates nor for processing file templates 
programmatically.

In addition, but less important for the moment, when I install the 
module from tools->plugins it says that the installation was 
unsuccessful. However, if I restart the IDE, the module is installed and 
working.
