Timothy Miller updated NETBEANS-3161:
-------------------------------------
Description:
In earlier versions of Netbeans, building an Ant project would automatically
cause jar dependencies to be copied into a "lib" directory under "dist". In
11.1, I found that this no longer worked. I determined that this must be some
kind of incompatibility between NB11 and JDK11 that only manifests during
*project creation time*.
I tested this with the following scenarios:
* NBTest1 – NB8.2 with JDK8
* NBTest2 – NB11 with JDK8
* NBTest3 – NB11 with JDK11
Testing steps:
# Create empty project (Java with Ant > Java Application)
# Right click Libraries and add a dependency (I added a jar)
# Put something trivial in main, like System.out.println
# Click Clean & Build.
# Start a terminal and go to the dist directory.
Projects created in and run in NBTest1 and NBTest2 work just fine. In both
cases, the dependency is copied into the dist directory. A project created in
NBTest3 does not work correctly. The first really weird part is that a project
created in NBTest1 or NBTest2 ALSO works just fine under NBTest3's scenario.
So the failure occurs only for projects created in NBTest3.
Then I diff'd all the XML and project files to see what's different between
NBTest2 and NBTest3. The only thing I found different was in
project.properties. In the one that works, I have:
javac.source=1.8
javac.target=1.8
In the broken one, I have:
javac.source=11
javac.target=11
I edited the project.properties for the broken one to make these set to 1.8,
and then the build worked!
Why should the compiler target and source affect copying of the libraries to
the dist directory? Isn't that an Ant thing, not a Java thing?
