Re: GenAI for Netbeans

I've seen it in action in PHPStorm. It watches your typing and makes 
suggestions. It makes good suggestions and goes as far as building out 
supporting functions. What's more, it's functional.

Malcom,



Thanks for the reply.  I do use PHP with SQL coding and have used 
XAMPP with my older version Netbeans 8.2.


I have seen on my netbeans 8.2 the XAMPP listed under Servers.



I just never seen this before when I downloaded Netbeans 19.0 on my 
newer computer.


You see on the bottom of the services?  I don’t have webserver 
installed yet.  Still kinda browsing a bit.


I noticed the “internal webserver” and that I can start and stop 
it.  I’m wondering what is going on here, when I don’t have a 
webserver yet.


What is this “internal webserver” doing? I’ll analyze my windows 
11 services when I start and stop this, but this is a strange new 
thing.


Haven’t found documentation in it yet.

The web server is not built into netbeans.

Netbeans expects you to use a web server running locally, ie, your own 
apache or nginx. Otherwise you can use PHP's built-in webserver, the 
one you get by passing the -S option to php via the command line?


If you are you have been using WAMP then you have apache running 
somewhere, and that's what you'd point to.


I use Netbeans for PHP webdev stuff. I find that it's easiest to use

I do have XCode and its command line support code loaded.

Advanced settings for Run config of PHP Projects

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I have my PHP debug port set to 9001 in NetBeans and that works well. 
However, I have some projects that are managed by Local.app, which is a 
tool that sets up a run environment for WordPress web sites. By default, 
Local.app configures xdebug to run on port 9000. To debug these projects 
I have to remember to change the debug port to 9000. And to change it 
back again later. Sooner or later I see the "waiting for xdebug to 
connect" progress bar and I start swearing.


I had hoped that I would be able to use the "advanced" settings on these 
projects to tell NetBeans to look for xdebug on port 9000. I haven't had 
any luck getting it to work.  I'm curious. Should I be able to use the 
advanced run configuration settings to set a different port for xdebug? 
If so, what do I need to do for it to work?

Shell Syntax Highlighting

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I'm editing a shell script and I'd like to get a bit of syntax colour. I 
can't see anything in preferences so I went online.



The first hit looked good. That article pointed to a plugin that was 
listed in official NetBeans plugins: 
http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/68049/nbshell. Unfortunately that 
plugin doesn't appear when I select the old sources in the plugins dialog.



The second hit said "simply install the C/C++ plugin by going to 
Tools->Plugins->Available Plugins and ticking the C/C++ box." I tried 
doing that At the validation step I get errors.



The validation of downloaded plugins cannot be completed, cause: NBM 
/Applications/NetBeans/Apache NetBeans 
12.3.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/cnd/update/download/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit.nbm 
needs unpack200 to process following entries:

netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_ja.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_pt_BR.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_ru.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/locale/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit_zh_CN.jar.pack.gz
netbeans/modules/org-netbeans-modules-cnd-kit.jar.pack.gz



Is there a way to have shell syntax highlighting without having to 
install the entire C++ plugin?




I've copied my setup info, in case it was of any help with the error 
message above.

Pop-up Selectors Do not disappear

Re: PHP Debugger in v12.3 does not stop at first line

Sorry to waste everybody's time.

The error was that I didn't specify the correct version of PHP. Out of

from that.

Running v12.3 and running "Debug file" I'm seeing a few problems. The

Thanks to everyone who has worked so hard to bring version 12.3 to life.

Installing PHP Plugins on v12.2 and higher

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

The plugins PHP Enhancements and WordPress/CMS were both able to be
installed on NetBeans v12.1.

v12.2 tries to install them but fails and logs the issues ( see below )

v12.3 (mac osx build) provides a polite warning:

Some plugins require plugin PHP Editor to be installed.

The plugin PHP Editor is requested in implementation version 2.


Is this something that we will see resolved in 12.3 before it is
released or is it further down the timeline?

Activating the Wordpress Plugin

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I'm using Netbeans 12.2 and I'd like to install the WordPress plugin. 
When I try to activate it I'm warned that it needs  the PHP Editor plugin.


Is there something that I can do to get this plugin active?

PHP WordPress module missing on update to 12.2

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

Fantastic work.

Congratulations and thank you all for the effort you have contributed to 
the community.


I downloaded the Mac DMG and installed from the disk image. My 
application is reporting as Apache NetBeans IDE 12.2-beta1.


I was prompted to update a number of plugins and while that was 
happening I was alerted to the fact that some php modules were not 
supported and should be disabled. I OK'd that. Now I see that the 
WordPress module has gone.


Should I expect to see the WordPress module or is this a config issue on 
my part?


thanks,

Malcolm

Re: How to reset/remove the stored Git password?

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

Then it's probably not about NetBeans but about the system keychain. 
Which OS are you working on?

Hello,

I accidently entered the wrong password for my git remote server and chose "Save

How can I delete that stored password? (NetBeans seems to try to use the old

I could find a "svn" sub-directory in my NetBeans User directory which 
apparently stores this for Subversion, but nothing for git.

Thanks

Re: Apache NetBeans 12.0 Beta 5

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

If you already have a copy of netbeans installed you can easily use the 
latest code without waiting for a MacOS bundle to be prepared.



 * Download 12.0 beta 5
 * Extract it
 * Duplicate your existing Netbeans and rename it.
 * Control click the new Netbeans copy and select "Show Package Contents"
 * Open the Resources folder
 * You will find  a Netbeans directory there. Note the capitalisation
   of that folder then delete it.
 * Copy the netbeans directory you extracted from the v12.0 beta 5 zip
   bundle into the Resources directory. You may need to rename it to
   Netbeans if the original was capitalised.
 * At this point you should be able to move back up the folder chain
   until you see your app and run it normally.
 * Optionally, you can open the netbeans folder, open the bin folder
   and toss away the two .exe files

Re: How to Alt + Enter on mac?

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

These keys are modifiable in Systems Preferences, so if you're using a 
keyboard that hasn't been manufactured for Apple, you can tell another 
key, e.g., the Windows key, to be the ALT key.

PHP xdebug loops through the code twice. Why?

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I'm debugging PHP on a Mac. 

PHP Version 7.2.21
Xdebug v2.7.2
Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE 11.3-beta2
Java: 10.0.2; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 10.0.2+13
Runtime: OpenJDK Runtime Environment 10.0.2+13
System: Mac OS X version 10.13.6 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_NZ (nb)   

When I debug code the debugger forces me through the code twice. I've tried to 
understand why but cannot see what is going on. This occurs with the simplest 
code, like a one-line call to phpinfo(). What steps can I take to determine why 
this is happening?

MacBook Pro Touchbar

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

Has anyone using Netbeans with Touch Bar MacBooks figured out how to include 
Netbeans in the list of apps at: 

System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Function Keys

I have NetBeans installed from the DMG as Apache NetBeans 11.2.app. That 
application name has been added to the list easily enough but it has no effect. 
The default Touch Bar preferences are displayed instead of the function keys. 
Other apps added to the list do display the function keys, so NetBeans is the 
only one not playing nicely. 


thanks,
Malcolm

PHP Debug woes

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I'm wondering if anyone else using NetBeans for PHP development can help me 
solve an issue that is making me tear my hair out. 

I have a number of different projects running simultaneously. My typical run 
setup is to use the PHP built-in server on port 8080. I'm running Netbeans 11.1 
on a Mac running OSX 10.13. 

The machine already has apache running on port 80 ( courtesy of FileMaker 
Server ). I find it much easier to initiate php's built in server from the 
directory that the project is built in than to constantly push things over to 
the directory running apache on port 80. 

The problem I have is that I can only get xDebug to respond to one project. If 
I trigger debug from one project, it works happily. If I close that project and 
try to debug another project it will not connect. My run configuration work 
well enough to start from the correct directory, so that much works. 

I really need to know how to ensure that xDebug will connect to the project 
that is running currently. Without the ability to debug I'm flying blind. 

thanks,

malcolm

Re: Netbeans app. package on Mac OSX "Application incomplete or damaged"

The app's Contents folder doesn't contain some things typically found inside 
the package contents of a Mac app such as: _CodeSignature folder, Info.plist, 
MacOS folder, or PkgInfo file.

NetBeans v11 is an excellent IDE for PHP development. I use it everyday for

Re: Netbeans 11.0 - Unable to Open Sources Directory

The wordpress domain is a public, publishing platform. Joomla users are welcome

Project within Project Config mess

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

Hi, 

Beginner's error. I've defined a php project based on existing sources and 
everything is happy. Then I defined a second project based on existing sources. 
However, the first project source folder is within the second project source 
folder. Whoops - I thought those files where in a different location. 

Now things are not so happy. Functions, like "refactor" don't work on the 
"inner" project unless I have both projects open at the same time. 

How can I clean the slate and start again?

thanks,

Malcolm

Packaging Netbeans as a Mac app

[Malcolm Fitzgerald]

I'm running NB10 on mac, which is great, thank you everyone for a terrific IDE. 
I use it for PHP coding.  

At present I use a bash alias to fire up netbeans which works perfectly well. 
However, I am interested in packaging it as a native mac app. I'm assuming that 
I need to start with the source code and build it from scratch but I'm hoping 
someone can point me to a good guide for doing so. I don't have any Java skills 
so I'm hoping that the build process isn't too demanding.  RTFM comments 
welcome. 

thanks,
Malcolm
