How to ignore pyc files in Netbeans project browser (regex question)

Question

I want to ignore .pyc files in the Netbeans project browser.

I think I found a way: TOOLS -> MISCELLANEOUS -> FILES .

Here is a section called: Files ignored by the IDE .

The field there is waiting for a regex describing the file pattern . The default value for that field is:

^(CVS|SCCS|vssver.?\.scc|#.*#|%.*%|_svn)$|~$|^\.(?!htaccess$).*$

How do I modify this expression in order to (additionally) ignore the .pyc files ?

Answer 1

Try this :

^(CVS|SCCS|vssver.?\.scc|#.*#|%.*%|_svn|.*\.pyc)$|~$|^\.(?!htaccess$).*$

I just added the .*\\.pyc in the first group capture.
