Hi,

I'm using NB 21 with JDK 21 in a Maven project (JSF).

I have selected "Deploy on Save" in the project settings.

When I run the application and save a file (for example a JavaBean),
the
modifications are not reflected in the app, that is, the JavaBean is
not
updated according to the changes I have made.

thanks.

Re: Run-Time Error: email Validation project still giving errors

[Mark Eggers]

Zulifi,

This is the same issue that you've had with your other project. As has 
been pointed out, I answered that question here:


https://lists.apache.org/thread/pq84cb84w8822g9rt133vctc14nbzb9f

Again, in particular:

1. Remove the following. They are no longer valid since Java 9

11
11

2. Add the following in the properties section

11

3. Create a build section in your pom.xml. Minimally it should look like:




org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-compiler-plugin
3.12.1

${maven.compiler.release}





If you follow the instructions given above and make the recommended 
changes to your pom.xml, the project will build.


. . . just my two cents

Re: Netbeans 22 does not allow JDK 1.7 or 1.8

[Mark Eggers]

Is there a minimum JDK 8 version that is required in order to be 
recognized by NetBeans?


That would be an interesting question to answer (and possibly document).

I know that there are some Maven plugins that have a minimum required 
JDK 8 version.


I wonder if the original author could go and download the latest JDK 8 
from an appropriate vendor and try that. If that solves the problem, 
then maybe the section that offers to download a JDK needs to be looked at.


I don't know, since I manage all of the Java versions on my platforms 
independently of NetBeans.

I will venture an answer to my own question of why java 8 is the

this explains it. The platform manager expects a JDK, not a JRE. The

you get Java 8 since the JDK went all the way up to 21?


yeah. so here is the summary:

 - NetBeans 21 requires JDK 11, 17, or 21 to run as you can see on 
the download page.


 - You should be able to register JDK 8 or later using the java 
platform manager and use it for your projects.


 - 1.7 won't be possible anymore since the editor of NB relies on a 
recent version of javac (which is bundled with NB), and javac itself 
does no longer support the Java 7 target (8 works fine)



How come if you download the latest... 


The Platform Manager itself can download JDKs.

This community maintained website might also help to find a version 
from a vendor you prefer: https://javaalmanac.io/


If you install a JDK using tools like sdkman or a regular repository 
on linux, NB should automatically add it to the platform manager 
since it scans some well-known directories.

Re: Netbeans 22 does not allow JDK 1.7 or 1.8

[Mark Eggers]

I just installed NetBeans 21 running on JDK 17.

I have several old projects that build against JDK 8. I've added JDK 8 
to my installed Java Platforms, set my Properties->Build->Compile to the 
correct JDK (1.8), and have set source and target in the maven compiler 
plugin to 1.8.


The project loads and builds as expected.

If I could get everyone to move to our latest parent pom, I could avoid 
installing JDK 8, set the Java release version to 8, and have it built.


I have tested the latter, and it works as well. It's just a matter of 
getting everyone to switch.

Re: Run-Time Error: email Validation project still giving errors

[Mark Eggers]

Khan,

I apologize - I meant to send this to the mailing list. You will 
probably get two copies.


This is mostly a Maven question. Two things:

11

The release should be major versions only.

Second, you'll have to actually configure the compiler plugin in order 
to use the above value. A minimum plugin configuration is:





org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-compiler-plugin
3.12.1

${maven.compiler.release}





In general, it's a good idea to declare all plugins that are used in the 
build. That way, when the implied parent changes, your build will still 
be reproducible. Run mvn -X package to get a start on that. Look at the 
enforcer plugin to enforce a minimum version of Maven.


That should get you started. Read more about how to use Maven at 
maven.apache.org.

Re: NetBeans Node.js issue

[Mark Eggers]

That all depends on where you installed everything.

1. Node.js is where you installed it.

Haven't installed Node.js? Then download the appropriate package for 
your OS (or use the appropriate package manager if you're on Linux), and 
install.


I don't know what OS you are using, and the default installing 
information is better asked on the appropriate Node mailing list.


2. npm is where you installed it

That comes with Node.js (at least it does on Windows 10 Professional). 
Again, how it is installed on your particular OS is better asked on the 
appropriate Node mailing list.


3. Express generator

When you use npm to install something globally (express) that location 
is determined by your OS. You'll have to browse to find it.


For example, on Windows 10 Professional, the location for express 
installed globally is:


%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\npm\express.cmd

Re: --boot-classpath errors in NB 16

[Mark Eggers]

Frank,

That's a very old version of the maven-compiler-plugin.

From version 3.6 of the compiler plugin, you can use the 
maven.compiler.release property, which sets the JDK >=9 --release option.


So the configuration would look something like this:


11





org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-compiler-plugin
3.10.1

${maven.compiler.release}






Does that help?

Re: font for accented characters

[Mark Eggers]

Hi Chris,

A quick question:

1. Is your file encoding UTF-8?

At least for NetBeans 15, the configuration file is located in wherever 
you installed NetBeans\etc. It's called netbeans.conf.


In my netbeans.conf, I've added  -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to 
netbeans_default_options.


I haven't tried this with NetBeans 16 yet (upgrade today most likely), 
but several people at $work have used prior versions of NetBeans and 
have added characters with diacritics.


Using the Character Map and copying the result into a text file worked 
on NetBeans 15. An acute accent e showed up in a text file, was saved, 
opened, and the diacritic was displayed properly.


The character showed up properly in other UTF-8 aware editors.

Hello,

I am trying to use Latin vowels with macrons in Netbeans 16 in Windows 10. My 
searches in such places as StackOverflow have yielded advice, but I have yet to 
find the right thing.

One possibility mentioned is just to switch to a font that supports accented 
characters, such as 'e' with accent grave - does anyone know which fonts I 
should try?

Another set of advice suggests changing the netbeans.conf file, but it has 
moved since the advice I found was written. How do I get to it in Windows? I am 
also unable to find the default_options file.  ??

Thanks

Re: Warnings in pom.xml files of a multi-module project

[Mark Eggers]

The warning does not appear when the project is opened in either 
NetBeans 12.6 or 13 when running under JDK 11 on Windows 10 Professional.


It does appear when running NetBeans 14 or 15 (vc) when running on 
either JDK 11 or JDK 17.


I guess I should write up how to reproduce the issue and file a bug.

If anyone can give me a clue as to where to start looking for Maven pom 
parsing, I can try to see what changed.


I also tried using different versions of Maven.

I also tried clearing the cache.

I also tried a completely clean user directory.

Multi-module projects that open cleanly in NetBeans 12.6 and 13 generate 
the parent.relativePath warning in NetBeans 14 and 15 (vc).

The following workaround made the issue disappear:

I recommend downloading Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org, unpack it in a

you have complete control, and the Tomcat mailing list can easily help 
you out with any issues.


I typically create a ~Apache/ directory and unpack Tomcat servers in 
that. You'll have to configure tomcat-users.xml so that NetBeans can 
actually control Tomcat as well.


There are a lot of creative things you can do once you do that, but that

What I do on Linux and Windows is the following:

2. Set JRE_HOME to the location of the base directory for the JRE
3. Set PATH
a) to $PATH to include $JRE_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin (Linux)
b) to %PATH% to include %JRE_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin (Windows)

Re: Netbeans IDE 12.6/JavaFX 17/Java 11

[Mark Eggers]

First of all, when I do development it's for Java EE web containers.
Second of all, I use Maven, so if you're using Ant or Gradle I will have 
even less of a clue.


That being said, I did a quick search for:

Error initializing QuantumRenderer: no suitable pipeline found a 
StackOverflow discussion here:


https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65737055/javafx-web-11-error-initializing-quantumrenderer-no-suitable-pipeline-found

In it, there is a reference to a classifier for the javafx-graphics 
artifact. The resulting dependency snippet is:



org.openjfx
javafx-graphics
17
mac


And substitute win or linux as the classifier if you're targeting those 
systems.


Another discussion on this can be found on the read-only github site:

https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx/issues/237

While the Java version is different, it appears that there are 
instructions for including the correct modules. I don't know if 
something similar will work with Java 17.


Again, I'm a web applications developer (when I develop - I'm mostly a 
systems / software architect at this point) and not a desktop developer.


Maybe this will point you in the correct direction at least?

Re: [OT] Can't get project to work with tomcat7

[Mark Eggers]

Mark,

Glad to hear you're up and running.

While I use Python from time to time, I remain (mostly) a Java person.

[insert standard language rant here]

Use the tool you're comfortable with, and one that's suited for the job.

Mark,

That helps a lot.

I was able to manually start tomcat7, clean and build the site, and
manually deploy the war file, trap the exception, change one line of code
(add 33 characters), and the site works on my development machine.

I now need to get a large bottle of bourbon, drink 1/2 of it for courage,
deploy the new war file on my production server, and if it all works, then
finish the bottle in celebrationif it breaks, then, well...,  finish
the bottle anyway...

I am going to try to update the application to the latest standards (Java,
JSP, Tomcat) and see how far I get. I have to admit, I left java quite a
while ago for Python and the Django framework. I have thought of just
keeping the db and rebuilding the site from scratch using Django...but that
seems to be as large a project as updating the java site to the latest
versions of everythingpass the bourbon!

Mark,

Well, that is indeed it.

You've told NetBeans that it's a J2EE 7 application (which Tomcat 7
won't run), and the web.xml is servlet specification 2.4.

You can try the following:

in web.xml

http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee;
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd;>

In NetBeans->Properties->Run

Java EE Version: Java EE 5.

If you're using Maven, you'll still have to install a JDK 8 Java
Platform under
Tools->Java Platforms.

I don't know if you're building under Maven or Ant, but you may also
have to update the JSP API. From one of my Maven projects which is set
for Java EE 5:

servlet-api-2.5 (provided by Tomcat)
jsp-api-2.1 (provided by Tomcat)

I also use JSTL and tag libraries since I think scriptlets are evil
(lack of exception management is at the top of their evilness).

javax.servlet.jsp.jstl-api-1.2.2 (not provided by Tomcat)
taglibs-standard-impl-1.2.5 (not provided by Tomcat, using the taglibs
from Apache)

That should be enough to get everything seen by NetBeans.

You could bump things up to servlet spec 3.0.1 (Java EE 6) before
running into a Tomcat 7 limitation. The process is similar, just with a
different XSD and dependency set.

Note that if you're running log4j 2.17.1 (or any log4j2, actually),
you'll need to initialize it differently in Java EE 6 versus Java EE 5
and below.

I hope that gets you started.

Mark,

All the applications that we run work fine on Tomcat 7 - Tomcat 9 (after
we modify context.xml). Most of our apps are pretty simple, but we do
have a few with either complex calculations or complex REST APIs. Your
challenges with Tomcat 9 should probably be taken up on the Tomcat
mailing list (great place, BTW).

If you go under Project->Properties->Run, what does the Java EE Version
say? If you have a web.xml (most likely), what is the web-app version
attribute value?



Run properties = Java EE 7 Web
web-app = http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee;
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;

xsi:schemaLocation="

http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd;>




Just looking at the drop-down menu for Java EE Version, it doesn't look
like NetBeans supports anything lower than Java EE 5. If you have a
really old web application running servlet spec 2.4, NetBeans 12 may not
recognize it.



How do I update the servlet spec for my application?  Sounds like one

place

to start upgrading my application?



In that case, you should be able to build your application in NetBeans
12, run Tomcat separately, and deploy using the manager application.




Please note that if you use Maven and run NetBeans on Java 11, you'll
need to configure a JDK 8 Java Platform (under tools).

Technical debt is really dangerous. If there is a security issue with
unsupported platforms, the resulting fire drill is unpleasant at best
(speaking from personal work experiences).

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

[Mark Eggers]

BK,

Maybe start here?

https://github.com/oracle/nb-javac

You'll have to clone the repository (or release tag, or release) from a 
place where you do have Internet access, and then go through the 
appropriate channels to bring it into your environment.


Once there, you should be good to either build it or install it on a 
local NetBeans platform.


If you need it in your air-gapped environment and have an internal Maven 
repository, then install the binaries there. That way other folks can 
download the JAR files, and copy them to the appropriate locations.

Or use a later version of the JDK where you don’t need nb-javac, i.e.,

Best to start moving away from JDK 8, though. There are now two LTS

Encoding semicolon in an param-value

[Mark Eggers]

I am using NetBeans 12.4 (I know, upgrade) on a Windows 10 Professional 
system with JDK 11.0.12 (I know, upgrade).


I am writing a proof of concept web application (Maven, Java EE 6) to 
test configurable servlet filters for Content-Security-Policy and 
X-Frame-Options.


This all works well, except that NetBeans marks my web.xml with errors 
if I put something like the following into a 


default-src 'self' object-src 'none'

It's read correctly, and examining the Content-Security-Policy values 
shows up the expected results (with the semicolons).


What is the proper way of encoding a semicolon so that it's read by the 
filter as a

 but does not generate an error by NetBeans?

8. Select the plugin and click on the Open button
9. Click on the Install button

11. Accept license
12. Click on the Install button
13. Accept self-signed certificate
14. Click on Continue
15. Make sure the Restart IDE Now radio button is selected (it is by 
default)

16. Click on finish

This will restart the IDE and install Emmet. The above is pretty much 
standard for any downloaded Netbeans plugin (.nbm).


I have no idea how to use Emmet. I see it in my plugins list, but I've 
not read the documentation nor watched the video.


I did this on 12.0 (I normally run 12.4), but the note on the release 
said NetBeans 12.0+.


I'm not endorsing nor knocking this plugin. I'm just detailing how to 
install a downloaded plugin. Caveat emptor.

It appears to be:

Re: FW: failure notice

[Mark Eggers]

Peter,

I tried to read through the quoted emails and headers, but I may have 
gotten lost.


Here's how I run JDK / NetBeans / Node on my Windows 10 Professional 
system. Your mileage may vary.


1. Install JDK/JRE
a. I use AdoptOpenJDK
b. I use the latest JDK/JRE 11
c. I use the zip files
d. Add the PATH to the executables manually
e. Add JRE_HOME and JAVA_HOME to the environment variables manually

2. Install NetBeans
a. I use NetBeans 12.0 (LTS)
b. I use the zip file
c. I edit netbeans.conf
   set netbeans_jdkhome
  add the following to netbeans_default_options
  -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
  -JDmaven.defaultProjectBuilder.disableGlobalModelCache=true
  --fontsize 12

3. Install Node from nodejs.org
a. download the LTS
b. Use the installer

4. Start NetBeans

5. Go to Tools->Options->HTML5/JS

6. Configure all of the HTML5/JS tools

This has worked reliably for me for a while.

In short, I don't use the installers for a lot of things. I also install 
tools separately, and then use the configurations to integrate them 
where necessary.

Re: Stopping Tomcat

[Mark Eggers]

HRH,

In general I don't recommend running Tomcat as a service on any platform 
when it's controlled by NetBeans.


1. On Windows

I create a directory (called Apache) somewhere where there's no spaces 
in the directory path. This is no longer strictly necessary, but it's 
nice to keep all the tools in one place.


I then download the zip archive of the Tomcat that I'm interested in.

I unzip it, and make the appropriate modifications in tomcat-users.xml. 
I edit the tomcat-users.xml file by hand.


I also put jars in %CATALINA_HOME%\lib, like the MySQL JDBC jar, 
activation jar (since I'm running on JDK 11 mostly), and mail jars. Add 
more (postgresql, sql), if you're running more services.


Finally, I point my NetBeans to this installation.

2. On Linux

See the above, use the tar.gz archive instead, and place the directory 
in an area under your user's control.


This has several advantages. I don't use a system account to control 
Tomcat. Starting and stopping can be done through NetBeans or the 
command line (nice when I have to switch to JDK 8 for legacy work). I 
can easily browse both the Tomcat logs and application logs.


Finally, I can configure multiple versions of Tomcat. I normally run 
only one development Tomcat at a time, so I don't bother changing the ports.


Right now I have one Tomcat for each of the major released versions 
(7.0, 8.5, 9.0), and an additional 8.5 version that is being tweaked to 
log via log4j2 and fluentd. Next on the list is Tomcat 10.


In short, I don't recommend running Tomcat as a service in a developer 
environment.


. . . just my two cents

The user and password was setup properly by the installer, so I did not have to 
change anything in the server.xml file. So it seems that the shutdown port was 
the only culprit in my configuration.

Thanks for the helpful insight.

  Hi HRH,

Below are two things I had to do to get Tomcat to be usable for me, though this 
is in Netbeans 11.1 so the process may have changed.
In order to get Tomcat to be stoppable and restartable by Netbeans, I needed to set the 
shutdown port in Netbeans (right-click on Tomcat in the 'Services' tab, click Properties, 
and the shutdown port is one of those properties) and in Tomcat's server.xml (I was able 
to right-click on Tomcat in the 'Services' tab and change the server.xml, I found the 
file in "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0\conf" if you 
need it).
I also needed to set up a user for Tomcat with the manager-script permission in 
tomcat-users.xml (for me that's in "C:\Program Files\Apache Software 
Foundation\Tomcat 9.0\conf" like server.xml), and then set that user and password in 
the properties for Tomcat in Netbeans.
Hopefully that helps,
Connor

Re: Java programs run in Netbeans but not outside

[Mark Eggers]

I do something similar and then package up everything as a zip file or
tar.gz with the assembly plugin.

Something like this:



org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-assembly-plugin
2.6

src/main/assembly/assembly.xml



And the assembly.xml file (leaving out the schema for brevity):


bin

tar.gz
zip

false
false


target


*.jar
lib/





Then, mvn package followed by mvn assembly:single gives me a tar.gz and
a zip file containing the correct structure. I can ship that around,
unpack it, and run the program from the command line with:

java -jar ./jarname.jar

Works for me.

When to install nb-javac

[Mark Eggers]

Folks,

I'm currently working with NetBeans 12 beta 1 running on Windows 10
Professional and OpenJDK 11.-0.6. First of all, hats off to everyone who
contributed to this. It's running fine for all of my projects
(maven-based web and command line projects).

I do have the notification showing 'Install nb-javac'. I've seen several
threads in both the developers' list and users' list saying to not
install nb-javac. I've also seen messages saying that if you run into
problems with nb-javac, disabling it is not enough. It must be uninstalled.

Is there a definitive list of the benefits that nb-javac brings, and
when you should not install nb-javac?

Considering this is also a beta, is the corresponding nb-javac even
available?

I'm running NetBeans 11.1 as well with nb-javac installed with no
issues. However, NetBeans 12 fixes several issues (JavaScript CDN,
Tomcat 7.0.103 launching) that are important in my environment.

Thanks for any insight.

.. . . just my two cents.

Re: NB 11.2 change default project path

[Mark Eggers]

I don't really understand why you described a disk crash, recovery, and
then said that the default project folder wasn't to your liking / wasn't
easy to change.

Instead, how about the following:

I would like to change the default location of where File->New Project
creates projects. I didn't find an easy or effective way to do this. Is
there one?

Can we have a start-up switch (somewhat like Eclipse) that allows us to
chose a base project location? Or maybe a GUI in Tools->Options that
allows us to set it easily? I will be happy to discuss my use case on
the mailing list. Thanks.

Is the above an accurate description of your issue? If it is, that
sounds like a simple (and possibly reasonable) request.

Personally, I don't mind browsing around to a different location during
project creation. Since I store different clusters of projects in
different parent directories, browsing around to open projects is part
of my normal work flow. YMMV

. . . just my two cents.

Re: NB 11.2 change default project path

[Mark Eggers]

Maven does this as well, and there are configurations (as well as
command line options) to manage this.

I would not be happy with a tool that changed the pom.xml or it's
meaning. I like that I get a warning, and then I get to decide how to
address it.

For me, managing JDK versions by using Tools->Java Platforms works as
long as I'm in the IDE. For a more robust solution, Maven provides
documentation on how to manage multiple (and appropriate) JDK installations.

. . . just my two cents.

Re: NB 11.2 change default project path

[Mark Eggers]

First of all, I'm just a happy NetBeans user.

Second of all, this is just my opinion.

So let me try to understand your problem first.

1. You crashed what appears to be a Windows data and programs disk

This is different than where your user profile is stored. I understand
this, since I do the same thing to minimize usage of a small OS SSD drive.

2. You reinstalled NetBeans on a new disk

3. You recovered your NetBeans projects on a new disk

The problem is that the 'Recent Projects' list links to the wrong
location. I'm guessing that this is the case since either drive letters
have changed or directories have changed.

In addition, there may be a lot of issues with the cache.

The best solution is to:

1. Ignore the 'Recent Projects' list until you've opened 10 or more projects

As Gj has pointed out, editing the projectui.properties file is not
something that should be done. I confess that I've done it, but it's not
trivial.

Just don't do it.

2. Before starting NetBeans, delete the cache directory.

In short, both will be rebuilt properly by NetBeans as you use the IDE.

As to your setting a target below 6 with JDK 11: - you can't. This is a
JDK limitation.

If you want to compile (and be proper) a J2EE 2.5 project, with source
and target set to 1.5 (in Maven parlance), then you have one option that
I can see.

a. Install JDK / JRE 8 along with JDK / JRE 11.
b. In Tools->Java Platforms, register the JDK 8 platform
c. In the project Properties->Build->Compile panel, configure the
project to use  the registered JDK 8 Java Platform

I do this all the time, as I'm trying to get a company I consult for to
move from J2EE 2.5 / Tomcat 7 to servlet spec 4 and Tomcat 9.

I do this on Windows 10 Professional, with the last Oracle JRE / JDK 8
and AdoptOpenJDK 11.0.6 installed from the zip file.

The only time things get unpleasant is if I try to build a JDK 5 project
from the command line, since my default Java is 11.0.6.

. . . just my two cents

There is an option in NetBeans to use a private configuration directory.
I just tried this, since I normally install my own copies of Tomcat.

You specify both the CATALINA_HOME directory (where your Tomcat is
installed), and the CATALINA_BASE directory (where your private
configuration lives).

It seems to copy MOST everything over, based on what RUNNING.txt requires.

Some things that are missing:

$CATALINA_BASE/bin directory with tomcat-juli.jar

$CATALINA_BASE/lib directory

The lib directory is not strictly required, but it would be nice to make
the lib directory since that's where things like the JDBC drivers live.

I don't know how this would work with a distribution's Tomcat. In
general, a distribution's Tomcat scatters components into non-standard
directories. I don't know if NetBeans would pick up where the
distribution places the files.

The original poster could try the following.

1. Create a new directory somewhere in home directory - maybe:

~/private-tomcat7
~/private-tomcat85
~/private-tomcat9

2. Add the Tomcat servers from the Services tab of NetBeans

Specify the appropriate installation directory for Catalina Home
Specify the appropriate target for Catalina Base (see directories above)

3. Once the subdirectories are created, go back into each CATALINA_BASE

3.a. create a bin directory
3.b. copy over the appropriate tomcat-juli.jar file from the distribution
3.c. possibly create and edit a setenv.sh file for extra configurations
3.d possibly create a lib directory to hold JDBC drivers, etc.

That should work. Again, your best chance of getting help with Tomcat
issues on the tomcat-users mailing list is to use an installation from
tomcat.apache.org.

Again, I also don't know if the NetBeans "use private configuration
folder" will work with distribution installations of Tomcat.

. . . just my two cents

I'm using NetBeans 11.1, but it should be the same for 11.2.

Don't use the distribution's Tomcat. Instead, do the following:

1. Download the latest versions (I use 9, 8.5, and 7) from
tomcat.apache.org.

2. Create a top level directory for convenience in your home directory.
I use ~/Apache

3. Copy the .tar.gz files for the various Tomcats into that directory

4. Unpack the .tar.gz files

You should now have directories apache-tomcat-7.0.x,
apache-tomcat-8.5.x, and apache-tomcat-9.0.x.

5. In each apache-tomcat-x.y.z directory, you should find a conf folder

6. In the conf folder, you will find tomcat-users.xml

7. Edit tomcat-users.xml per instructions found in the comments of that
file.

You will want a manager-script role / user so that NetBeans can control
the server.

8. When you add the server to NetBeans, use the same user name and
password created in step 7.

The reason for doing all of this is quite simply, permissions. NetBeans
deploys WAR files to Tomcat by copying a context.xml file to
$CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/app.xml.

The contents of that app.xml file contain the actual location of the web
application (it's not copied over to the Tomcat distribution), as well
as the context path served by Tomcat.

If you don't have write permissions to
$CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost, then the deploy / undeploy will
not work.

I normally only run one Tomcat instance at a time on my development
systems. However, if you want to run more than one Tomcat instance,
you'll have to edit $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml and change at least
the shutdown port and HTTP/1.1 ports to be unique across all Tomcat
instances.

This setup is quite nice, in that I have full access to the Tomcat
installation with my user account. I can add jars to $CATALINA_BASE/lib
(for example, JDBC jars), and add environment settings to
$CATALINA_BASE/bin/setenv.sh.

Finally, if you get stuck on a Tomcat-related issue, you're more likely
to get help on the Tomcat mailing list if you've installed the latest
version of Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org rather than use a distribution
version. It's not that distribution versions are necessarily bad, it's
just that each distribution does things differently. Apache Tomcat from
tomcat.apache.org is set up the same way regardless of OS (OK - .sh
versus .bat files not withstanding).

. . . just my two cents

Re: SVN Client

[Mark Eggers]

I have to apologize.

I just checked my logs, and it appears that NetBeans 11.1 is falling
back to a command line since I have Slik SVN 1.12 installed. According
to the logs:

INFO [org.netbeans.libs.svnclientadapter]: Javahl client adapter is not
available
Incompatible JavaHL library loaded.  Subversion 1.9.x required.

INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion.client.SvnClientFactory]: JavaHL
not available. Falling back on SvnKit.

INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion.client.SvnClientFactory]: SvnKit
not available. Falling back on commandline.

INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion]: Commandline client version:
1.11.1 (r1850623)

INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion.client.SvnClientFactory]: running
on commandline

I can try finding an archived version of Slik SVN and install that.

I need to update TortoiseSVN as well.

Both are on my path at present, so NetBeans finds everything. I don't
have any special SVN environment variables set.

If I find a 1.9.x version of Slik SVN, I'll install and report back to
the mailing list.

. . . just my two cents

Re: SVN Client

[Mark Eggers]

I use the Slik SVN client with the advanced installation on Windows 10
Professional with NetBeans 11.1.

This seems to work reasonably well, although I mostly work with git
these days.

Re: A Bad Thing has happened to the promise of platform independence

[Mark Eggers]

Walter / Gj,

One of the problems with running multiple versions of Java on Windows is
the inclusion of the following on the path (as I wrote up earlier):

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath

This MUST be removed from the PATH environment variable otherwise you
will see errors like those reported in the log.

I just ran the OpenJFX sample from NetBeans 11.1 using Maven and OpenJDK
11.0.4. It ran as expected with no errors.

Re: Netbeans 11 won't launch in Windows 10

[Mark Eggers]

I run NetBeans 8.2, NetBeans 11, and NetBeans 11.1 daily on a Windows 10
Professional desktop. I've never had any trouble installing or running
the platforms.

For this mix, here's how I do things.

1. Download OpenJDK 11.0.4 from adoptopenjdk.net

Download the appropriate zip file (64 bit version for me).

2. Unzip it in a reasonable place

I usually put 64 bit code in D:\Programs-x64. This way I don't have
spaces in directory names in case there are legacy issues with spaces on
Windows. I also don't want to clutter up a limited size SSD (I should
really get a larger one).

3. Edit some environment variables

3.a. Add JDK_HOME to point to the location where you unzipped the openjdk
3.b. Add JRE_HOME to point to the location where you unzipped the openjdk

Please note that the location of the server JRE has changed, and it is
now mixed in with the JDK. In short, both java, and javac are in the
same subdirectory (bin).

I set JRE_HOME since Apache Tomcat makes use of that environment
variable if set.

3.c. Edit the PATH environment variable
1. Add %JDK_HOME%\bin to the path
2. Remove any previous JREs from the PATH (for me, %JRE_HOME%\bin)

3. If you have JDK / JRE 8 installed (I do)

Remove C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath (or
wherever it is) from the path.

4. To verify that everything is installed correctly, open up a
PowerShell Window and type:

4.a. java -version
(you should get the following)
openjdk version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK (build 11.0.4+11)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM AdoptOpenJDK (build 11.0.4+11, mixed mode)

4.b. javac -version
(you should get the following)
javac 11.0.4

4.c jshell
(you should get the following)
|  Welcome to JShell -- Version 11.0.4
|  For an introduction type: /help intro

jshell>

Ctrl-D should exit jshell.

5. Download the Apache NetBeans 11.1 zip file

6. Unzip it somewhere appropriate - I use D:\Programs\Apache

7. Launch the netbeans64.exe file from the directory

I usually tweak the netbeans.conf file for larger fonts, UTF-8, and some
other things. However, that's beyond the scope of these installation
notes. I also add the JDK 8 installation under Tools -> Java Platforms
since I still have projects that require JDK 8 (servlet specification
2.5, sigh).

I hope this gets you running.

. . . . just my two cents

Re: Printing from IDE 11.0

[Mark Eggers]

Printing works for me for both 11.0 and 11.1 64 bit. I see the previews
in the Print Preview window.

Windows 10 Professional 64 bit
AdoptOpenJDK 11.0.4+11 64 bit

I have a physical (network - attached) default printer set up. Do you?

Re: Please help to debug jsp sources using netbeans 8.2

[Mark Eggers]

What happens when you just try Ctrl-F5 (Debug project)?

I just did this for a simple JSP page.

Environment:

Windows 10 Professional
JDK 1.8.0_202
NetBeans 8.2
Tomcat 7.0.94


Windows 10 Professional
OpenJDK 11.0.3
NetBeans 11
Tomcat 7.0.94

In both instances, I hit the break point and was able to inspect the
values present in the JSP page. I didn't try to do much else.

Please note that Apache Tomcat 8.0.x is no longer supported and has been
superseded by 8.5.x. You will probably have to check
http://tomcat.apache.org/migration-85.html to see what the impact is.

If you're poking around with VisualVM, Java Mission Control, etc. you
might have to create a startup.bat(sh) to set some CATALINA_OPTS values.
See https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/monitoring.html for how to
set it up. This shouldn't be necessary if you're just debugging locally
though.

. . . just my two cents.

It looks like a BOM for UTF-8.

Are you downloading this on a Windows machine, and is the file generated
on a non-Windows machine?

I have added -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to almost the end of my
netbeans_default_options in netbeans.conf. The end option is for bigger
fonts.

The error shows up as an unrecognizable (at least to me) character at
the beginning of the file. Delete that character and the file validates.

Hi,

I'm running NetBeans 10 with JDK 11.0.2 on Windows 10 professional with
a 27" monitor. My resolution is 2560 x 1440 and I'm running at 125% for
text size in the display settings.

I have the following font size set in netbeans.conf as the last entry in
the netbeans_default_options:

--fontsize 12

I'm using monospace 12 pt font in the console settings.

I am using the Windows look and feel, and I have not modified the
execution to use the application's DPI settings.

So my environment is a little less high definition than yours. I don't
have any trouble copying from the output window to a text editor (tried
notepad, jEdit, and notepad++).

I've mostly seen weird offsets like that when I needed to adjust the DPI
under the Compatibility settings (right mouse -> Properties ->
Compatibility tab). This went away for NetBeans 10 once I started using
JDK 11.

Hope there's some useful information in all of that.

. . . just my two cents
