在Netbeans中重命名Grails项目

Question

I have a project that I would like to rename (I'm using Netbeans) and I can't find an option to do so. With a Java project it was as simple as right click project -> rename.

Is there a way to rename a Grails project? (Without causing issues with the classes therein)

Answer 1

This has moved to the project.xml file in the most recent versions of NetBeans (I'm running 7.1).

1. open [project directory] /nbproject/project.xml
2. change the <name> to reflect the new name of the project:

<name>[new project name]</name>

Answer 2

(1) Close any applications which may be using the app (Netbeans, Grails run-app, etc..)

(2) Update your application.properties file to have your new application name.

app.name=youroldappname

(3) Rename the base directory where your project is to yournewappname .
