Re: Netbeans startup crash

[Matthias Bläsing]

Hi Brad,

Michael already gave the explanation (the structure of the javac
modules was incompatibly changed). At the time it was done the issue
was brought up, but as it only affects users of the development builds,
it was deemed ok.

To fix this:

1. Open /home/bwalker/.netbeans/dev/modules
2. Look for the javac modules and note the names
3. Open /home/bwalker/.netbeans/dev/config/Modules and look for
   XML files with the same basenames and rename them to
   .xml.remove
4. Start NetBeans

This basicly removes the modules from NetBeans. If start succeeds and
everything is in order, you can remove the ".xml.remove" files and also
the corresponding jars from the /home/bwalker/.netbeans/dev/modules
folder.

HTH

Matthias

Re: Netbeans startup crash

[Michael Bien]

Hi Brad,

i see you are using a dev build. Since nb-javac renamed some jars 
recently, its likely that you have two things installed at the same time 
and something broke.


"ant clean" should fix the build if you have a recent master (relevant 
PR https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3392 )


you might have to clean /home/bwalker/.netbeans/dev too.

hope that helps,
michael

Re: Add support for other programming languages

[John Kostaras]

Thank you Brett. Welcome on board. I added you as PoC for clojure and scala
in confluence

for the time being.

We will be updating that and this wiki page

for the time being and we 'll see how we can organise.

Any ideas are welcome.

Kind regards,

John.

There was brief discussion on possibility of automating the transformation

Hello,

Our company's Cyber Security department has made us aware of a critical 
vulnerability, cataloged as CVE-2021-44228.

In brief, this vulnerability allows a hacker to execute arbitrary code via 
applications that are based on Apache Log4j2 2.0-beta9 through 2.12.1 and 
2.13.0 through 2.15.0 JNDI.

Please refer to this link for details on this threat:

We currently use the following software from your company:  Apache Netbeans IDE 
12.5

Could you please answer the following questions related to this software and 
the CVE-2021-44228 vulnerability?


  1.  Does this application use Java?
 *   If so, is Apache Log4j2 used in this application?

   i.  Is the 
version of Apache Log4j2 2.0-beta9 through 2.12.1 or 2.13.0 through 2.15.0 JNDI?

   *   If so, do you have a permanent fix or a temporary fix?
  *   When will this fix be available?

Re: Add support for other programming languages

[Brett Ryan]

I wrote language support for postgres openedge i think back in nb5, i think 
it’sa lot easier now, back then i needed to implement a state machine.

I wouldn’t mind seeing clojure support, and scala revived. I’ve only just taken 
an interest in clojure and use scala every day.

[John Kostaras]

Thank you Randamuna. I 'm kinda in the same situation as you, very busy at

documentation, your wiki or something?)

Kind regards,

John.
