Dear Apache NetBeans community, The second (and hopefully final) beta build for Apache NetBeans 12.1 is available. Apologies for the delay - needed to wait for a revised nb-javac update, and a few other things. All being well, the release vote will commence one week from today.
A full list of changes between beta1 and beta2 is at https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2276 A key change to test with since beta1 is that nb-javac when installed should now fully support Java 14. As per the release schedule, NB 12.1 is a non-LTS release, and will not have a full NetCAT process. However, feedback and testing from those on the dev@ and netcat@ lists would still be appreciated, particularly around new features. Please file issues in JIRA as necessary, with the affects and fix versions set to 12.1. Please take note of the Bug Priority Guidelines (link below), in particular so that we can address critical and blocking issues if they arise. **If making PRs to fix issues, please add the 12.1 milestone and add me as one of the reviewers** See the artefacts here : https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/netbeans/job/release121/5/artifact/dist/ The binary you most likely need is : https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/netbeans/job/release121/5/artifact/dist/netbeans/netbeans-12.1-beta2-bin.zip As this is hopefully our final beta, testing a source build against release vote criteria would also be very useful : https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/netbeans/job/release121/5/artifact/dist/netbeans/netbeans-12.1-beta2-source.zip The SHA512 sums if you would like to check them are provided there as well as here : 21a8f193f5c0f977a5ee6091cda267f7b9739cb2259daa074434512a4321d49328e6bfd941f19e85ba34a24e35e42b31f002a1a3a8d18a06f57dc46855091eb4 ./netbeans-12.1-beta2-bin.zip de64aef15209c3bb42b1a9cffe7996c6c40d04d9d5cc7f32d3d85f75a7f984260e8889d09204b12c6a4f7cad4b3f84dae0ed09bf1e43c5a136ed72982ee1ff41 ./netbeans-12.1-beta2-source.zip **Note that our build server has moved. If there are any issues, the old build server also has a build of beta2. Be aware that SHA sums will be different - check against files there.** https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/NetBeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/netbeans/job/release121/4/artifact/dist/netbeans/ GitHub PRs integrated since 12.0 : https://github.com/apache/netbeans/milestone/6?closed=1 Release schedule : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Release+Schedule Bug Priority Guidelines : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Bug+Priority+Guidelines NB 12.1 major changes : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+NetBeans+12.1 Thanks all and best wishes, Neil Release Manager for Apache NetBeans 12.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: netcat-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: netcat-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
