Jaroslav Tulach commented on NETBEANS-516: ------------------------------------------ FYI: One of the things I had to do for [http://wiki.apidesign.org/wiki/JDeveloper] was to prepare the IDE caches during install time, so they are ready for all users using the same installation. This has already been done for NetBeans 8.x. > Shareable Netbeans configuration data > ------------------------------------- > > Key: NETBEANS-516 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-516 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Victor Williams Stafusa da Silva > Priority: Minor > > As discussed in the dev mailing list, currently if Netbeans is installed in a > computer with multiple user accounts, a different set of configurations will > be created for each account. This means that each user will have his/her own > set of Netbeans plugins and maven repository. > However, this situation might be undesirable. This means that many plugins > would be download and installed in duplicate by different users. This also > means that, for two users, maven repositories might be duplicated consuming > double network traffic to be populated and double disk space. > Security is a reason to mantain these configuration separation between > different users. However, the user might not want that and instead would like > to share his/her workspace with other users in the same computer. So, an > option asking if Netbeans files should be stored in user private space or in > shared space should be provided. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
