FYI

ANSI_RESET has no effect.

System.out.println(ANSI_RED + "This text should be red!" +
ANSI_RESET);
System.out.println("Hello World!”);

Hello World! Is white with / without ANSI_RESET.

No, just make sure you're using NetBeans 17, or change the exec plugin
version to 3.1.0.  I'd missed the relevance of the update in NB17
here, sorry, https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/5111

Yes, otherwise it would have been impossible to test!  But it would
help if I'd written the right thing :-) Updated the issue.

It's -Dexec.inheritIo=true you want.

Easiest way to test is after using the run or run file goal, click the
yellow double-arrow, second down in the output window, which allows
re-running the goal with altered parameters.  Add exec.inheritIo=true
to the Properties section (just type on a new line - don't need the
Add button, although you can find it using Add > Plugin Expression
Property).  Then OK to execute.

If this works for you, you can change the properties for the relevant
tasks permanently in the Project Properties / Actions section.

Best wishes,

Neil

"Using Maven, it works if passing -DinheritIo=true."

Out of curiosity, can you set this within NB?

Incidentally, just had a quick look and noticed that there is some

support for ANSI colours in the output window - your problem is build

system dependent.  Added a comment to the issue - can track it there.


Best wishes,
