Thanks, I use gradle and it produces the right colored output on the
command line. Intellij also has support straight out of the box.

Re: Font scaling on High Res displays

[Peter Steele]

I have hdpi working ok on Linux with jdk 11 and netbeans 12. The only issue
I have is the icons are small and the splash screen is small. I believe
there is a Jira for the icons (migrate to SVG ones)

I use the flatui theme, the theme you use is pretty important.

FlatUI does not need any special OS settings to work

Nimbus and Metal both need an OS settings to trigger any scaling. On Linux
you can set the gtk scale env variable and it will work although you will
need to adjust the font size as TTF fonts are typically hard coded to 96dpi
so won't change automatically with hdpi monitor.

Output window prints garbage

[Peter Steele]

Hi

Not sure if this is 12 related or not (snap package auto updated). When I
print out a very long line of text to the output and I have wrap turned off
I get a line of text which bizarrely looks like it is multiple lines super
imposed on each other. (So looks like garbage but I can make out underlying
text of what should have been printed). I used to get something saying the
line was too long but that doesn't happen in my case. If you select wrap
everything displays fine, and when you select in wrap it shows the garbage
text again.

Output window displaying ansi colors

[Peter Steele]

Hi

Does the output window support the ability to display ansi colors? (it
doesn't work by default, just wondering if there is a setting used to turn
it on, the window can def display color as it already does).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code

Example

System.out.println("\u001B[91m" + "This text is red!" + "\u001B[0m");

USER¶ <https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#users>

A *user* is someone that uses our software. They contribute to the Apache

feature suggestions. Users participate in the Apache community by helping
other users on mailing lists and user support forums.
DEVELOPER <https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#developers>

A *developer* is a user who contributes to a project in the form of code or
documentation. They take extra steps to participate in a project, are
active on the developer mailing list, participate in discussions, provide
patches, documentation, suggestions, and criticism. Developers are also
known as *contributors*

I personally have no interest in whether the page is up-to-date or not. I
was just pointing out the fact the links are out of date.

Typically in an outsource project there are maintainers of that project who
actively develop / improve the product  and users of that projects who
don't usually develop but raise issues and highlight things to the
maintainers. This mailing list is the users mailing list so expect a lot
questions to the maintainers here. I see your default answer to a lot of
questions about changes in the user list is basically "where is your pull

Changing the font size in the output window and FlatLaf question

[Peter Steele]

Hi

1) Can you tell me how to change the font size for the text in the output
window?
2) Can you tell me how to get netbeans to auto resize the tab labels when
using the FlatLaf L&F? On a 4k screen the fint is good but it doesn't take
that in to account when resizing the font labels.
3) When using FlatL&F the main editor window doesn't have its fint changed,
but the rest of the app (bar output window) do. Is there a reason for this?

Thanks

Re: Quirks when running Netbeans 11.3 on a laptop

[Peter Steele]

I rolled back to jdk 11 after upgrading Ubuntu to 20.04 (11 is now the
highest openjdk that is packaged) and the issue no longer occurs.

Like with another issue I had it looks like jdk 13 was the issue.

I will be avoiding jdk 13 with netbeans until it works better

Re: Gradle based project won't load. How to investigate it or see compiler output?

[Peter Steele]

Run the build on the command line to see if it's a netbeans issue, if it is
then run with With --info or --debug (logging levels) or with --stacktrace
to get the stack trace info of the build failure.

If it works on the command line then you need to setup gradle properly in
netbeans.

Quirks when running Netbeans 11.3 on a laptop

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I just wanted to know if people had noticed the following when running
netbeans 11.3 on their laptop (not sure if it happens on earlier versions
or not)

I'm running on Ubuntu and using java 13

1. After closing the laptop lid and letting it suspend (or hibernate, same
thing), the line numbers disappear when I re open the laptop and it resumes.

2. After closing the laptop and letting it suspend (or hibernate, same
thing), you can't search or search and replace after it resumes. The short
cut keys don't work and the menu items are Grey's out.

Both the above two are fixed with a netbeans restart.

3. After changing to tablet mode on my laptop, netbeans sometimes gets in
to bad state where one window always has the focus no matter which window I
try and click in. I can put the mouse pointer in another windows and click
and hold to select text but it always does the actions in the window where
the focus is stuck

This is fixed only by restarting the whole laptop, the problem persists on
a restart of netbeans.


I appreciate these could be java issues (the last one definitely happened
on earlier versions of java and netbeans), but I don't know 100%

Thanks

Peter

Re: location file which saves compile errors

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I tried this, I thought it had worked but it didn't. I still have a couple
of classes that have this issue (it fixed a lot though).

The errors are all to do with return types (thinking they are object) or
incorrectly saying a method doesn't exist on a class

location file which saves compole errors

[Peter Steele]

Hi

Netbeans seems to cache compile errors and on startup immediate flags those
compile errors with a red underline and red marker.

I am assuming to be the case if it's wrong then the question will have to
change slightly.

I am getting incorrect compile errors highlighted in red which persist
restarts. My program compiles and runs successfully but the code keeps
getting highlighted as if it was in error. This started off with one error
but has exploded to a lot of classes having this issue now.

I have had this before and previously deleted the netbeans .netbeans folder
but I would rather just delete the file necessary to make netbeans clear
it's cache.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Peter

p.s. this issue isn't easily replicatable as it just happens all of a sudden

P.p.s I am on 11.3 but this has happened on all previous netbeans versions
(can remember if it happened on an oracle version or not though)

Image Previewing

[Peter Steele]

Netbeans has a useful feature for previewing images (you just double click
and it opens a window with the image in), I can view bmp and png images as
an example. Not all image formats that I use are preview able though. Can
someone help point me in to the right direction as to how I can add support
for the other formats that I have? Or to describe how the current process
works?

Re: NB11 - gradle support

[Peter Steele]

Mike

Gradle just uses the dependencies you have given it, the dependencies can
be refined to restrict where they are used (runtime, compileOnly example)
and also whether you want gradle to include children dependencies and
children of those etc. (I can't remember the syntax there).

It looks like you are including all the jars you need and then all the jars
those jars need which is why you have a big list. Those dependencies are
only really required if you need to use every bit of functionality
available in those jars.

You can manually list the dependencies you need if you wish to remove jars
that are not of use on your use case. You just stop the child dependencies
being added then manually add to your build.gradle file

Netbeans is not the issue here

One nice feature of intellij, is that you can get it to include all the
dependencies in one jar which prevents issues like this. Raise an
enhancement request if you want this, in JIRA. I personally prefer having
the jars separate.

Regards

Peter

Re: Unused method highlighting

[Peter Steele]

It's possible, intelij does it, it's just a question if netbeans does it.
If not I'd advise raising a new Jira or adding the functionality yourself
if you have the expertise. Netbeans definitely highlights unused methods
and fields to a certain extent.

There is, you can disable the gradle plugin that comes built in and install

Re: [EXT] Re: Trying out NB10

[Peter Steele]

If you are using 4k you should note that the font / window sizing is
partially dependant on the look and feel you have chosen. If it is a system
look and feel then it will take the scaling from the os. If it is a non
system look and feel then there is no scaling applied and you need set this
yourself, it is a -D parameter. I can tell you the exact settings if you
need to know more.

 * netbeans64.exe --jdkhome "C:\Program
 Files\AdoptOpenJDK\jdk-11.0.2+9"
The answer from cmd is:
   The launcher has determined that the parent process has a console
 and will reuse it for its own console output.
   Closing the console will result in termination of the running
 program.
   Use '--console suppress' to suppress console output.
   Use '--console new' to create a separate console window.
 - when I run javac -version from command line the answer is:
 javac 11.0.2

 Netbeans never started.

Re: Help on setting up licenses for new builds

[Peter Steele]

New build equals the new builds with the new gradle functionality built in
rather than the gradle plugin. You sent another email previously asking for
testers and I have been testing and providing feedback.

To avoid making the other email trail too large I started a separate email
trail with some specific feedback here.

The summary is that the licencing for a gradle project is different in the
new build compared to Apache 10 build with the plugin. It's not really
useable in my mind.

I'm not a developer of netbeans, I'm just reporting feedback.

Help on setting up licenses for new builds

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I am testing the new gradle build, which is going well. But I have noticed
the license template functionality has changed.

Previously there used to be a box to enter the organization, this has now
dissapeared? Where is the replacement box located? Why was it removed?

Previously I created a profile and just applied that profile to projects,
now I need to select either a global license or use a gradle defined
license.which is set using a netbeans.license property. The options for
values here are to use absolute paths or short codes for the license I want
to use. The question is what are these short codes? I tried some obvious
examples for the license I want but it didn't work. Is there a list
somewhere?

Thanks

Peter

Re: Calling all Gradle users!

[Peter Steele]

I have noticed one extra issue, if you right click in the projects view and
do a clean and build. The outputs tab in the notiifcation is not loaded up.
If it is already loaded up but the focus in the notification area is on the
Search Results tab, for example, then again the focus is not changed to the
output tab. If the output tab is open and in focus but there is another sub
tab open (like a git commit window) then again the focus doesn't change to
the output window.

Re: Calling all Gradle users!

[Peter Steele]

Just a small bit of further feedback, in the project navigator pane (the
one with the tree in). If you don't have a main project selected the set
main project right click item doesn't appear. But if you have one selected
the set main project does appear. I would say it should always appear.

Re: Calling all Gradle users!

[Peter Steele]

Hi

Some good news on testing further with a brand new project and maybe some
suggestions for further enhancements

1) The exception I saw was caused by gradle running a too old version on
root project (the default gradle installation on linux was too low for jdk
11 (actually 9 10 and 11). I fixed it by running this "gradle wrapper
--gradle-version 5.1".
2) The issue of not loading the sub projects was only because I didn't open
the project from the project dialog, it opened because it was the last
project I opened. My suggestion here would be to default to open all
subprojects in this scenario.
3) The issue of the sub projects changing name was caused because I had a
settings.gradle in root project and all the sub projects from the previous
gradle pluggin. In the new netbeans it is not done this way. My suggestion
here is to better handle the behavior if settings.gradle is present and has
rootProject.nane=X set to a value different to the directory name of
the project (the previous plugin allowed you to set th emodule name and
project name).
4) The other reason for the compiling not working is because the root
project settings.gradle did not have all the includes set for the sub
project.

For 3 and 4 I think this was caused by a old version of the current gradle
plugin as it doesn't happen now. and produces similar file to the new
version of netbeans

So overall a positive experice (once I fixed issues with my project).

I downloaded the new version and ran it side by side with the current
setup. After installing javafx (which was new), I got an error initially

It then installed nc-javac and requested a restart. After the restart I got
the same error again. My root project + subprojects project was attempted
to be opened but it didn't recognise the fact the that the root project was
a root project and didn't load all the sub projects. When I closed all the
projects and reopened the root project it seemed to recognise the root
project and that it had sub projects just fine but the error above still
came up.

When I right click on the sub projects and say open project (would be much
nicer if they were opened by default), the project name in the sub projects
tree and the name in the new open project tree node are renamed to the
settings.gradle -> rootProject.name value from the directory name value
(which is the name of the project it was given when created).

When I try and run the main sub project, which depends on the other sub
projects I get lots of compile errors because it can't find the classes in
the other sub projects. This is because the compile dependencies are
currently set in the build.gradle of the root project. In the current
gradle plugin it runs everything from the root projects perspective and
allows you to choose a sub project to be the main sub project where as this
new version of netbeans runs things from the perspective of the subproject
in isolation.

Sorry if the above doesn't make sense, I will try later on today to get an
example project together which highlights as many of the issues as I can.
I'll create the project in the new version of netbeans to test the creation
process too.

I am a big gradle user, I currently use the gradle plugin setup with a root
project and many sub projects. I am interested in helping. I'm currently on
netbeans 10 with jdk 11 (there is a minimum version of gradle required for
Jdk 11)

Strangeness with auto encapsupation

[Peter Steele]

Hi

When using the Refactor - Encapsulate menu item I get two different
behaviours depending on what I do.

1)

Action : select the whole text of the field you want to encapsulate, select
the encapsulate option and select get / set or both (doesn't matter)

Result : the get / set or both methods are generated at the very top of the
class

2)

Action : place the cursor caret in the text of the field you want to
encapsulate, select the encapsulate option and select get / set or both
(doesn't matter)

Result : the get / set or both methods are generated at the very bottom of
the class

Is there a reason for there being a difference?

Regards

Peter

Re: [netbeans] offline installation

[Peter Steele]

Oracle already has "donated" it in a way because of the openjdk project.
Nb-javac is just an extension of the javac distributed with added extras to
make ide's able to parse the results of compiling better (that's my take).
Intelij does a similar thing, presumably based on the openjdk code.

The difference being intelij doesn't make you download something extra. So
the question is valid, why is netbeans different to intelij in this respect
and why does it have to be downloaded separately. I personally find it
weird why oracle thinks it wants to keep the extended javac code a secret
when the javac code is visible at the openjdk project.

 can be synced using a local nexus server and some swivel chair action and i

 With the newer installs, we're pretty much forced o be online during

Upgrading from 9 to 10 experience

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I've upgraded from 9 to 10 and wanted provide some feedback. Overall the
experience was very positive but I encountered the following

1) I imported settings from 9 but a couple of plugins I downloaded
(darcular laf and gradle) were not copied across. Would be nice if these
were imported too. I had to re install the plugins.

2) most of the core API was disabled (Java for example). I had to install
to nbjavac and oracle plugin and then re enable all the core plugins

3) I expected this but thought I would feedback anyway. I have some
settings in .conf to ignore dpiaware and to set a UI scaling value (for 4k
res). These don't copy across installations. Maybe having some thing in the
profile that can be used extract extra options would solve this (or maybe
this exists already and I don't know about it 😀)

Groovy

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I am trying to install the latest version of gradle from here

http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/44510/gradle-support

I have the 8.2 version but I want a later version as the 8.2 gradle plugin
doesn't seem to work with the lastest version of ubuntu.

I have an issue though, I get this message.
   Some plugins require plugin Groovy Support to be installed. The
plugin Groovy Support is requested in version >= 1.42 but only 1.41.1 was
found.

The following plugin is affected:
  Gradle Support


Do you know how I can get Groovy Support version >= 1.42?

My update center has this. there is no update available from the ide

*Version: *1.34.1
*Source: *Netbeans 8.2

Plugin Description This module provides all Groovy and Grails functionality
available in NetBeans. It is wrapper for all single modules in this area.


Thanks

Groovy and Grails

[Peter Steele]

Hi

I recently tried to upgrade from a pre 9.0 release in April to the 9.0
release not that is has been released. I have found an issue on the
migration though.

The update center has changed now and I can no longer install Groovy and
Grails plugin and because of this the Gradle plugin doesn't work anymore
(and all my projects use gradle)

Is there a way to get around this?

Thanks

Peter

Re: Long Live NetBeans!

[Peter Steele]

Ashton

What i think people are saying is, they appreciate your offer of helping
financially but at this stage, in the migration to Apache, the focus is
getting the first release out for which the netcat process is key.

Once netbeans is more established in Apache i am sure suggestions like this
could be looked at to explorer if they could work or not.

Keep up your enthusiasm 😀 If you have time, contribute, if not then you
will need to wait patiently for the first version.
