如何确定Netbeans 7.3和Symfony2是否正常工作？

Question

I have recently followed the common advice found on the internet on how to install Symfony2 in Netbeans 7.3 by pointing the configuration to the Symfony2 standard edition zip file.

Now I'm following the book on the Symfony website to create the HelloBundle demo, and I'm noticing some inconsistencies.

First, when running a Symfony command in Netbeans, the generate bundle does not work as the book says it should . It forces me to use the --dir option. Here are the parameters I had to add:

--namespace=Acme/HelloBundle --format=yml  --dir=src

Secondly, I see the routing file that was created, but the route parameters are different than what the book says. First the term "Pattern" is used instead of "Path." Further searching indicates that "Pattern" is an obsolete term and that "Path" is preferred now. If this is the case, then why is "Pattern" showing up in my files if I'm using the most current version of the framework (2.3.1)? Also, my routing file has the word "Default" in it while the book has "Hello." Here is a copy of the output.

acme_hello_homepage:
    pattern:  /hello/{name}
    defaults: { _controller: AcmeHelloBundle:Default:index }

Finally, the book is unclear as to whether or not creating the bundle also automatically creates the controller files. Is this the case? I do not have "HelloController.php" file the books says I should be editing.

I'm new to Symfony, but this feels a little off. If that's the case how do I configure it to work as it should?

I'm using Netbeans as IDE for my symfony 2.x projects, i can't tell what's the problem with your Netbeans configuration, but here's a guide that can help setting-up things :)
