Re: deploy on save not working ?

[Eric Bresie]

Bringing this back to the list in case others may have some additional
thoughts…

Anything showing up in the logs?

JRebel is slightly different.  As I understand it, it takes an existing
running application at the byte code level and tries to swap out byte code
which may have changed in the source.  So it’s kind of a fine grain updates.

>From the case you are talking about it basically replaces the whole
application in a given server instance.

Regarding alternatives not sure but this may provide some possibilities

Re: deploy on save not working ?

[Eric Bresie]

Which server is in  use?

Some servers may not redeploy automatically and may require restarting.

Did the browser session get refreshed?

Re: Upgrade Gradle version.

[Eric Bresie]

Maybe some of the Gradle documentation may help.  See
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/upgrading_version_7.html

“General error during conversion: Unsupported class file major version 65”
(which means Java 21 - see
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9170832/list-of-java-class-file-format-major-version-numbers)
usually means a given artifact (jar) is compiled to a newer/unsupported
version.  So there is likely a mismatch someplace.

That said if you are using Gradle wrapper then it may be trying to pull
down a dist (older) version expected in the wrapper side which is a
different incompatible Gradle/Jaca version.

Re: Apache NetBeans 20 released - Java Versions

[Eric Bresie]

If this is at NB startup…Not sure if this has changed in newer NB versions
but in  the Netbean folders etc/netbeans.conf the default netbeans_jdkhome in
use property points to default jdk version that NB runs on.  (1). It’s also
possible to specify the location from command line when starting NB.

Believe this is the version NB is running on (which should at minimum be
compatible with version that NB was built with).  Not to be confused with
the Project Java property in use or the available installed Java Platforms.

As I recall, Java 8 was the last non-openjdk release by Oracle after which
the release process and cadence change with emphasis on openjdk (open
source based).

Oracle still offers security updates (especially if there is a support
contract) but many of the older versions are reaching End Of Life (EOL).
Java 8 I believe is the last version with Java with update monitoring; I
believe this was removed or not actively supported in the openjdk version.

Re: [servlet]

[Eric Bresie]

Regarding "compile error that complains about that RequestDispatcher is an
undefined symbol.  "

When editing, are red issue icons in the Netbeans gutter on the left on
some of the imports?  This can show missing dependencies in your pom file.

May need to add the javax-servlet-api dependency.

Re: [servlet]

[Eric Bresie]

By the way, I believe these warnings are due to conflicting configuration
methods.  Can configure them in the descriptor or with  annotations which I
believe may take preference.  Maybe there were some conflicting
configurations in use and/or limiting the wrong place to correct.

Glad it works now.

Re: Re: NB16 - java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable code

What version of JUnit is being used? Not sure if JUnit 5 is fully compatible. 
Can try JUnit 4 and see if this resolves the problem with test at least.

Re: Re: NB16 - java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable code

[Eric Bresie]

Are there any dependencies projects or libraries in use? Maybe they are built 
with a newer/older Java compiler which is not compatible (I.e. dependency 
compiled with newer version not in use with the older version being used).

Can you check the Java Platform to see what’s installed? Can also check 
Help…About to see some of the versions in use.

I believe NB16 does have a dependency on Java 11 in some contexts

Might want to consider updating to NB 16...I believe some of the

Did you use  File..."New Unit Test"?  In this case then each test has to be
manually added as desired.

Using the Netbeans...Tools..Create/Update Tests on the project for the
class creating placeholder tests to provide a wealth of test coverage. This
method tends to generate a lot of test coverage (most with "fails"
initially to force review and updates of each test to make sure it's
written for the true need of the unit test case.)

Also, I can't seem to add any of my classes to the generated class. Auto

Have you tried any of the "hints" / "fixes" on the left gutter?  This often
times when hovered over will help with some basic fixes.

Maven projects tend to have additional "dependencies" listed in the Project
explorer.  Dependencies can be added in this context or can be manually
added in the pom.xml files

Be mindful it's important to have a good build of the dependency classes;
if there is some kind of problem compiling one of them (i.e. say a missing
dependency), then usage of that generated class may not work until such
time as it's been successfully built and available for use elsewhere.

Is the new project also a Maven project or was it originally an "Ant"
project?  Netbeans treats these slightly differently and the project
explorer shows different things (i.e. in "ant projects" right clicking
allows configuring "Properties...Libraries''; with "maven projects" project
shows "Dependencies [including a "Test Dependencies]" to be leverage (right
clicking on the "Dependencies" here allows "Add Dependencies" which
reflects it here and will modify the pom.xml file at the same time).

Also, when trying to build, see if there are any clues in the Output pane
that may help provide some additional guidance.

Re: Add server - file permission

[Eric Bresie]

As mentioned it’s a permissions problem.  The servers may need execution
and/or write permission to the folder which if you don’t have them it may
not work.

There’s always the documentation (1) (2) that may help

Re: Possibility of Netbeans supporting more languages

[Eric Bresie]

For example, regarding Python support…it’s in very early development but there 
is an in-work LSP based Python plugin available here.

https://github.com/ebresie/python4nb

And can always checkout other languages like those listed here

Hello,

I was an ardent user of Netbeans from 2009 to around 2016, while using Java

The reason for mentioning this, is because current popular IDE's lack the 
usability that Netbeans has. There is a LOT of features that are very 
thoughtfully crafted, and has left me wishing it was there in other IDE's too. 
Problems with other IDE's:

  *   Intellij Idea: Too heavy on resources. Can't run it on my 2GB RAM, 
Celeron laptop.
  *   VS Code: The various view panels are inflexible in position and simple 
tasks that should have been easily runnable, are complex in accessibility and 
usage. Julia's plugin for VS Code makes it extremely slow to run Julia programs.
  *   Spyder: Poor support for refactoring.
  *   Sublime text: Unbelievably un-intuitive IDE. Need to Google search for 
how to do anything in it.
  *   Atom: Is already being sunsetted.
  *   Eclipse and LiClipse: Is kind of ok, but not as good as Netbeans.

It's not just me. When using Java, many of my juniors were also 
enthusiastically vocal in their preference for Netbeans. You've built a great 
IDE. If Netbeans could be streamlined to be lightweight, bug-free and if 
support for languages like Python, Julia, R and C++ is added/improved, and if 
Netbeans could be marketed more, it'd be a great help to the software community.

Test Coverage and Test Creation in Netbeans

[Eric Bresie]

As I start working on my Netbeans plug-in I began to realize there is probably 
a significant lack of test coverage in the project.

Are there any good plugins maybe or maven plugins to help with test coverage?

And for areas where there isn’t much coverage, how is the best way in Netbeans 
to generate one (place holder really to - like in class can you introduce 
code/refactor selecting methods to add such placeholders?

unpack2000 (Re: Beans Binding ())

[Eric Bresie]

This got me thinking about the need/current state of unpack200/pack200 (1)…

When creating nbm some (mainly older say Netbeans 8.x timeframe nbm)
leveraged pack200 in attempts to save space.

In more recent JDK versions in/pack200 capabilities were remove (2) as of
JDK 14.

I workaround was identified and a way to locate existing unpack was
implemented (3) which required selecting the location of a pre-jdk14
version of unpack200 executables.

There was other discussions/issue about this (4) prior to (3), during which
finding alternatives was suggested like a forked version of the
pack/unpack200 or leveraging Apache common compression.

However each of these needed some work.  I believe at the time:
- There where no dependency artifacts available for using the fork and
- The Apache compress while it did add functionality based on Apache
harmony JDK, it was not compatible with newer unpack200 handling which
would require further updates

So in summary is  it worth reviving this effort to allow support.  If there
is user interest I can move this over to the dev mailing list if preferred.

Re: Apache NetBeans Language Server Extension for VS Code

[Eric Bresie]

Short answer. No

Longer answer: Netbeans extension for VS Code provides Netbeans Java IDE 
functionality via LSP interfaces.

LSP is a way of providing a standardized support for new languages across 
editors. So this uses Netbeans LSP implementation for use in Visual Studio Code

Bundle / Message Attributes - Annotations vs File Base

[Eric Bresie]

While working on Netbean Plugin project, I noticed in multiple examples of
code, that some code Netbean code leverage "file based" bundle files and
elsewhere leverages "Annotation" based code which results (from what I see)
in some "auto generated" files being created.

WIth that in mind, can anyone identify any tutorials, documentation, best
practices, etc.  on the preferred way of this?

Assume usage is to basically have "properties" (based on a bundle
attribute) for use throughout the code.  So how should these be defined (in
what context), how should these be loaded/retrieved (i.e. load from file,
initialized [static or otherwise]), and how should they be references (i.e.
"get bundle attribute x"  for use in code)?

Re: NB & Eclipse about jar files

[Eric Bresie]

What are you trying to accomplish? Run (within the IDE or external to the
IDE), decompile or peak into, or add as a dependency?

There is always the basics:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/jar/basicsindex.html

Jars package compiled java code for use in valid installed java runtime
platforms (Windows, Linux, MacOS).

When running jars, the normal expectations are to
(1) Java Runtime Environment (JRE) at a minimum although a Java Development
Kit (JDK) is also possible.  Do you have a compatible JRE or JDK
installed?  Assume you do, if able to run Netbeans
(2) Classpath is defined to help locate the jar.  This can be done by
setting a Classpath environment variable (either global, user, or via
"batch" or "shell script") or passed on command line with an applicable
parameter (i.e. -cp).  Without this, it may not be able to "find the jar"
to work with.  Classpath settings may also be different depending on where
and when your running things.
(3) In Windows it may be configured to right click and run as Java type
usage.  Something similar on Linux maybe possible.  Otherwise,  that usage
of basic shell/command prompt based execution is normally in a java -jar
 with maybe a -cp and maybe calling out the "main class" to be
used to execute

If you are talking about something else in Netbeans like
(1) Expanding the compressed zip to see inside,  Should be able to do so
within the Project view and drill down where applicable.
(2) Run it from the IDE, the IDE normally runs things based on code
associated with a "main java source" and applicable source based.  In some
cases (i.e. like maven project) it is possible to use the "build tool" to
tell it to run.
(3) Dependencies within the IDE: This depends on the type of project (i.e.
ant, maven, Eclipse project, Netbeans Project, etc.) which each have there
own way of handling dependencies.

Hope some of this helps.

Re: Installing C/C++ 8.2 in NB 12.6

[Eric Bresie]

In more recent JDKs, the pack200 has been removed from the JDK itself as of
JDK 14 I believe (see https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/367).  As such, it may
be necessary to locate another earlier version (maybe JDK 11 or 8 the
previous Long Term releases) of the JDK where the unpack200 is still
present.  Once selected, I believe it should be possible to unpack and
install things.

profile and where it is located.

Assume this may have to do with the module's public/private/friend API
(i.e. if not accessible may appear missing).  May want to check out some of

[Compatibility Page] Re: Re: Offline Install of Netbeans on JDK 8 (with nb-javac)

[Eric Bresie]

Is there a reference page someplace to show Netbeans compatibilities? Something 
like:

Netbeans version, Minimum JDK
Netbeans 13, JDK 11
Netbeans 12.6, JDK 8

Could also have other dependency columns as well if wanted to expand further on 
some dependencies (i.e. maven, ant, git, etc.)

Or would the Release page for given release be an alternative?

Re: Re: Offline Install of Netbeans on JDK 8 (with nb-javac)

[Eric Bresie]

With this thread in mind….

So is there good documentation on the netbean launcher parameter/arguments? In 
other words, I recall one parameter to passing JDK.home defining the JDK 
location but are there others that may help here?

Is there maybe a new feature needed to add some of these configuration 
parameters to help in offline setup/configuration if the don’t exists?

Maybe some sort parameters like:
- “activatemodules” (which could be one or many),
- “install a module”,
- “setup directory” (where “to be installed” directories can be defined), etc.

Or would configurations of some of these manually in the etc/netbean.properties 
file help?

By the way did the nb-javac get pulled down? See 
https://github.com/oracle/nb-javac

Re: Upgrading Dependencies when new Netbean Releases

[Eric Bresie]

Looking in the console during attempted run I do see..

--- nbm-maven-plugin:4.6:run-ide (default-cli) @ python ---
Configuring mojo org.apache.netbeans.utilities:nbm-maven-plugin:4.6:run-ide

configurator -->

  (f) netbeansInstallation = C:\Program Files\NetBeans-12.5\netbeans
  (f) netbeansUserdir = C:\git\netbeans-python\python\target\userdir
-- end configuration --

Where does the "netbeansInstallation" get set?

Is there a new "nb-maven-plugin" beyond 4.6 associated with the 12.6 build?

Re: Upgrading Dependencies when new Netbean Releases

[Eric Bresie]

I only updated the netbeans specific dependencies which previously
referenced "125" and no other dependencies.  Is it possible some other
dependencies not references with 125 are needing updates as well and if so,
is there an easy way to determine what else may need to be updated?

I'm running on Windows 10 and JDK 15 ( not sure why I haven't updated the
JDK in use recently but maybe I should and/or downgrade to an older one
[JDK 11 or 8 maybe]).

In addition to the "Netbean showing the 12.5 version", I also get messages
like the following:

Warning - could not install some modules:
My Editor - The module Progress API was requested in version >= 1.62 but
only 1.61 was found.

I've tried downloading dependencies, cleaning and rebuilding but still no
luck.

Is there a specific property somewhere that specifies the netbean platform
to be used?

I see the "Set Configuration" with "default config", "netbeans-ide", and
"release" but using these don't seem to help either.

Upgrading Dependencies when new Netbean Releases

[Eric Bresie]

I have been working on a Maven Netbeans module project in Netbeans which
has many Netbean specific dependencies.  I started this with Netbeans 12.5
based dependencies and all seemed to work well.

When Netbeans 12.6 came out I figured I would upgrade the dependencies to
be compatible with 12.6 versions so I modified all the dependencies to be
like RELEASE126.

This seemed to work someone but there were issues none the less.  For
example:

When attempting "Run" on the project in Netbeans, it continued to use the
"Netbean 12.5 platform" during running and complained about some older
modules being present instead of newer modules.  Assume it's still using
Netbeans 12.5 for the platform for some reason and may not be picking up
newer dependencies, has stale jars, or platform setup issues.

In the Tools...Netbeans Platform, only 12.6 platforms are defined with no
12.5 present.

In the project folder, I removed the "target" cache/user folders which
caused them to be repopulated at next build but still no luck.

Any idea?

Re: Re: NB 12.6 - how to get static analyzer plugins to install

[Eric Bresie]

findbug was forked (replaced) by spotbug (see https://spotbugs.github.io/ ). 
Could this be used to replace the existing findbug dependency/code?

Alternatively, the sonar lint plugin(s) on the plugin portal may provide an 
alternative for code analysis features.

Your not using the version with the new Jakarta namespace instead of the javaee

The code completion DOES work when using an older Java EE API project.

So if you open a legacy project, the behavior works? But with a new project, it 
does not?

Have you tried "cloning" the working project to see if it works today? Can you 
replicate your "SampleBean" example based on the older project? How do the new 
project and the old projects differ?

And, honestly, it is a deal breaker. Otherwise you may as well be using a

Not sure if this is the case or matter anymore but

There was a satriage in the path with a satriage project being created. So 
could this

/Users/twolf/spectare/git/satriage/src/satriage

be seen as a package within a package with the same name?

Would a project with a different name work?

Re: How to remove Maven from Netbeans 12.0

[Eric Bresie]

Was the project created as a Maven project?  Is so it may start up as such
and may check on dependency updates to repositories.

Maybe as simple as recreate as Ant project and move source and ant files
over.

Netbeans Browser Option Not Picked Update

[Eric Bresie]

Trying to determine if something on my end or maybe a bug needing to be
reported..

While using Netbeans, in the console windows a hyperlink showed which I
clicked on, which opened a different browser than expected.  In the
Tools..Options..General, a specific browser (Edge) was selected but it
seemed to use the "System Default" instead (Internet Explorer).  When
selecting "Edit" it shows "Edge" also selected and the "System Default" set
to IE.  Does something else need to be set to actually use the selected
different browser?

Wasn’t there some debug (Java?) problems recently that may be getting fix
soon (see email thread “ Debugging Broken in NetBeans master - PLEASE DO
NOT MERGE FURTHER CHANGES”). Could this impact Groovy as well?

Re: Where to see and report Java bugs most effectively?

[Eric Bresie]

This is my understanding of things...there are multiple systems involved,
one being more committer oriented while the other is more user oriented.  I
believe the user oriented one tends to be evaluated and if accepted moves
into the other (JSB) oriented.

For additional information, see some of the below

https://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/ (external submissions)

Re: java.util.zip.CRC32C Not Found

[Eric Bresie]

Did the project properties identify the specific java version in use?

Did the Tools…Java Platform…Add Platform account for the Java 11 version?

Is the JDK.home properties in the netbeans/etc/netbeans.properties get set
to applicable version?

Are java home and related environment variables set?

Re: Pssst! [Kotlin Support]

[Eric Bresie]

Unrelated but at some point, there was discussion of integrating Kotlin
support (I believe donated by JetBrain developer)…did anything further
happen with that?

Or is Kotlin another candidate for “new LSP language implementation”?

Is this maybe a regression or similar to this issue?

Has java home, classpath, and/or module class be established yet either at
system level or in the project level?

Re: JavaScript Framework's

[Eric Bresie]

Since these are javascript based, beyond the basics of javascript, what are you 
proposing to be added?

Can always raise an issue ( 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues/NETBEANS-5734?filter=allopenissues
 ) to ask for functionality to be added if there is not already a ticket for it.

Re: 2021 Netbeans Events?

[Eric Bresie]

Having never had the opportunity to be involved in any of the events
previously, I'm not really an expert on that per say.  AsFor that matter,
I'm not sure of how things were handled previously nor am I sure I'm
experienced enough to facilitate the whole event given my lack of
experience.


   1. In the past, did this happen around the time of Java One / Code One
   time frame?  If so maybe (not sure if that's virtual this year or now)
   around that time frame?
   2. Given Netbeans is Apache Netbeans, are there any Apache events coming
   up that might be good to be part of?  And assume there might need to be
   coordination with Apache organization for specifics here as well.
   3. Assume (unless someone / everyone feels comfortable enough for it to
   be in person) that it would need to be some form of virtual event (does
   Apache have a "Apache Virtual/Video/Web Conferencing" Tool in it's
   portfolio??)..
   4. Not sure how "topics" or "submissions for speakers" was done in the
   past (assume voluntary).

Re: Cloud Connector within Netbeans ?

[Eric Bresie]

Keep in mind, a lot has happened since Netbeans 8.2...it has been donated
(mostly) to the Apache foundation, the "plugin" center has migrated to a
new center, many plugins have not been migrated or updated to the newer
releases of Apache Netbeans (just recently released 12.4), and some of the
materials from the original netbeans.org site have (or have not) been fully
migrated or redirected as well.

Re: Netbans Language server protocol support

[Eric Bresie]

Not an expert, but there are a few languages that leverage LSP in the
mainline netbeans code base.  Many of which leverage "text-mate" grammars
and/or LSP server functionality integrated within.

There was some discussion on dev mailing list (1) a little while back.
Maybe some of the details there might help or search for LSP threads (2)

Re: Re: removing the "new project" support for Ant projects

[Eric Bresie]

I’m not sure why everyone hates ant so much. I know it’s not perfect but what 
build tool really is.

If the preference is not to use ant in the future...when is Netbeans going to 
formally change from ant to maven? I know some work has been done in the 
branches which assume may have involved some tools to do some of the 
conversions so could whatever was use be used to automate the batch conversion?

Does this have anything to do with removal of XML binding in Java 11
timeframe?  And maybe need to add a dependency for this to the project?

Re: Implementing Netbeans Editor Hints and Fixes

[Eric Bresie]

I should add...

I've seen references to "Java Hints" which assume more "Java Centrics".

In the IDE, for a Module...New...Java Hints which also assume follows the
"Java Centric" way of doing so,

AbstractHint class is identified as being deprecated

I assume the basis of the hint/fix mechanism started in Java, rolled out in
other places, and then may have started to migrate towards a newer more
language agnostic SPI interface.

I've seen some links online (see reference below; mainly from Geertjan)
about how to do some things with Annotations, Hints, and Fixes but I
believe this may be based on the "legacy Java Hint" way.  Much of this
seems to be older (2006-2011) which I'm suspecting while still valuable,
may not be the preferred current means of doing Hints/Fixes

Furthermore, how do these types of Hints, compare to those defined in the
Tools...Options...Editor...Hints area?  Do "Hints" defined elsewhere get
group or are present in this context in some way when registered properly?

On Slack, I've also heard mention of CSL (Common Scripting Language), which
seems to be another interface / package to implement language and parsing
support in some way which provides some Rule/Hint/Fix mechanisms as well.
 Is this another API I might want to consider (I believe the comment I saw
was in the 2016 timeframe - so maybe this is newer than Java Hints but not
sure)?  Is this the preferred route or the above mentioned "Newer" SPI
Fix/Hint route mentioned above is preferred.

Not specific to hints/fix (maybe should be a separate thread), but was
curious how that CSL compares to the newer LSP route?

Are there any newer tutorials, good examples (likely already in the
Netbeans code based) for the new Hint/Fix SPI interface?

I was trying to update some autocompletion logics in some netbeans code and
was hoping someone could provide some suggestions and/or provide a good
example of how to implement "Hints" and "Fixes" in the autocomplete context.
