I have always assumed that (1) and (2) are true. My "solution" is to stay on a single private branch based on the latest NetBeans release (currently 11.3), rather than the master branch, and pile up a few different patches before I start making Pull Requests. That way I normally only have to

Gj, Here's some feedback - sorry this got kind of long. The videos aren't so outdated that I couldn't figure things out, so I just explained the issues I see. Using NB 11 (running on JDK 12?) instead of NB 8.2 should be a big improvement on the visuals. The readme on GitHub explains how to

A few questions/observations: 1- How to do the Ant build wasn't mentioned, I did it like this: "ant -Dcluster.config=full". Build was done with a user.build.properties file inside netbeans/nbbuild containing "nbjdk.home=/home/lou/jdk/jdk8u212-b03" (latest OpenJDK). Correct? 2- When adding a

Not sure how I missed that, relying on the GitHub readme too much I guess. I'll take a look, thanks! -Lou Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email. ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On Monday, May 20, 2019 4:27 PM, Patrik Karlström wrote: > Have a look at >
