Dear Steven,

from what I read it turns around to make 1.7 the default platform. I
don't think it is necessary in order to build a project with a specific
JDK to make that JDK the default. Instead, you can add other platforms
to Netbeans (Tools / Java Platforms) and then select one of these in
Properties / Libraries / Java Platform.

Still, your mileage may vary when it comes to if Netbeans accepts 1.7 as
a platform or not, I haven't tried it with 1.7. But certainly you don't
have to run Netbeans on the platform you want to build on.

I need to build to JDK 1.7
So how do I set JDK 1.7 as the default?

When I try to change the #netbeans_jdkhome to JDK1.7, I get an error when 
trying to start Netbeans.

Hi Nelligan,

for example, /./etc/netbeans.conf

#netbeans_jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"

#netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_202"
#netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.4"
#netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2"
netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.4"
#netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-12.0.1"

Regards,
Kai

I've installed Version 11.0.

I have the following JDK installed:
        JDK 1.7
        JDK 10
        JDK 11 (Default)
        JDK 9

How do I make JDK 1.7 the default?

In earlier version of Netbeans, this was done by setting "netbeans_jdkhome" 
this would set the default JDK.

That is true, but Netbeans runs on JDK 11, but I want to build my applications

How do I set the default JDK within the Netbeans environment to build and run 
using jdk-7?
You can't!  Unfortunately this is broken in NB 11.1, but might be fixed in NB 
11.2.  For now, you'll probably have to stick with NB 11.0.
