### Description Netbeans stores its files in the following directories: ``` ~/.cache/netbeans/19 ~/.netbeans/19/config ~/.netbeans/19/var ``` As I understand (I can be wrong) that NB supports XDG Base Directory partially. I would suggest either to support this specification fully or don't support it at all. Because it is very illogical and confusing every time I want to clear cache or see config files of NB. So, it should be either: ``` ~/.cache/netbeans/19 // XDG_CACHE_HOME ~/.config/netbeans/19/ //XDG_CONFIG_HOME ~/.local/state/netbeans/19/ //XDG_STATE_HOME ``` or ``` ~/.netbeans/19/cache ~/.netbeans/19/config ~/.netbeans/19/var ``` Useful links: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html https://github.com/adrg/xdg/blob/master/README.md ### Use case/motivation _No response_ ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a pull request?
