Description

I tried adding the following line in my root project's gradle.properties file:

 

netbeans.license=licenseheader

 

And placing a file named "licenseheader" in the root project directory.

 

After doing so and creating a new file in the IDE editor, the header was not included.  Also, the project properties "License Headers" settings appear the same as before, as if the new line in gradle.properties is being completely ignored.  There were no notifications about any exceptions during this experiment.

 

 

I believe what I did was consistent with the directions at:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/License+Headers

 

Am I doing something wrong?  Or is there still a bug with this feature?
