This is actually captured in two issues: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177307 and https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177939 The root cause of issue 177307 was a change in the public id of the sun-web-app_6_0-0.dtd. The code to support the other sun-*.xml files had not been developed. The user would see an exception in the dev builds. When I tested this in a 6.8 rc environment, the multiview editors for all the various sun-*.xml files would be blank, except for the XML view. The change is safe for a couple reasons: 1. it is difficult to run into the issue, since https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177943 prevents users from generating a sun-*.xml file that includes the newest DOCTYPE info. 2. The code is mostly boilerplate. 3. have integrated unit test that covers the code that is the root cause of 177307 and 177939. See the issues for notes on review and testing. The issues also have links to the changes. Thanks, vbk
