Save open files (session) in NetBeans

netbeans, netbeans-7

Solution

You are looking for Project Groups. Take a look at the `File > Project Group` menu.

There you can create Project Groups that defines a list of opened projects. You can then switch from groups and the chosen projects will be opened/closed.

Netbeans saves the list of opened files per project so:

- if your groups do not share projects, you'll get the behaviour you want.

- if your groups share projects, the files opened in theses projects will follow you when switching between the groups.

Problem

I would like to save actually open files (tabs) and revert session (group of files) next time. Is there any options in NetBeans IDE 7.1.2? I know that NetBeans save automatically list of files that were opened when I quit the IDE. How to save opened files and switch between sessions?
