7Beta: Locked endorsed library blocks maven clean

[MatthiasW]

Hello,

I have a problem with the current Netbeans 7 Beta. I also tried the nightly build from 12/05, but there it is still existing.

The situation is a maven project using JEE6. Netbeans automatically copies the javaee-endorsed-api-6.0.jar into the {build_dir}/endorsed folder using the maven-dependency-plugin.

So far all is working. But when I try to do a "maven clean" using the GUI or command line, which is for me sometimes needed, maven fails because this JAR file is locked. It is locked by the Netbeans IDE process.

My question to you is: Did you have this situation already? Could something in the IDE (setting/pom/runtime) cause this file being locked permanently?

As I don't see a reason by myself, I watched for an explaination in Bugzilla and found http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188514 which seems to be quite similar.

Cheers,

Matthias
