NetBeans: Adding copy right information

[gautham kasinath]

Hello,

What I am trying to do is a very trivial task. I have to add the copy rights notice (GNU) that my company issues to all the Java sources that I have. I use the netBeans and I have spent a day and a half in trying to figure out HOW I can include the same into NetBeans, so that existing classes can have the copy right notice injected on the top and the new classes that I may create (right click -> Java Class) have the same.

Any clues?! Google failed, netbeans mail arhive failed in solving my problem..

Cheers
G

For new classes you can probably just change the templates used to create them.
I don't know how it's done in NB but in Eclipse that's an almost trivial task.

For existing classes I think you'd best write a small program that does it for you as otherwise you're stuck with a large copy-paste action.
