Re: Best Java version for Netbeans

[Scott Palmer]

Well, that is only if you don't add other JDK platforms and set
project-specific JDKs.
(Just making sure everyone is aware that you can compile a project with
Java 14 even though NetBeans itself is running on Java 8 or 11.)

If Junit 4 does what you need, be happy and use JUnit 4.

Re: Best Java version for Netbeans

[Alonso Del Arte]

By the way, what's the recommendation for JUnit? I'm using NetBeans 11.2
with JUnit 4. I tried using Maven once, it downloaded JUnit 5 (I doubt it
connected IntelliJ's copy) but then it wouldn't work. So I removed JUnit 5
from the project and put in JUnit 4 instead.

No idea what that means in that context?!

But I'm not sure that liking it the way it is was the takeaway from
that thread.  It's how the code we inherited works, and really how
it's always worked.  Just the new faster schedule makes it more
problematic.  I'm not sure anyone's going to argue about improving the
UI around it.

There was a long and, at times, heated debate about this here just
recently.

Apparently TBTP like it the way it is. Personally I'm with you on this,
but...

Dear Neil,

Thanks. I'd assumed that the 'check for updates' would look for new versions.  
It looks like I have to get the latest (12.1 I think) version by hand.

Best regards,

Peter

Actually, expected behaviour - there are no updates for 11.1 there.
That's different to saying that 11.2+ don't exist!

There should have been a notice about 11.2 at some point, but it shows
only once I think.

It's come up before that the current behaviour for notifying of
patches is confusing in terms of notifying of new releases.

Best wishes,

Neil

Re: Best Java version for Netbeans

[Geertjan Wielenga]

Probably best is always the latest LTS release of Java, which is currently
11, though then you won't be using the latest language features introduced
in feature releases after 11.

Any recommendation about which is the best Java version to run Netbeans with?
