Is there some table highlighting the features that are broken with / without nb-javac?
The nice page at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Overview%3A+nb-javac does highlight that there is a good reason nb-javac exists. Even when running on JDK 9+ are we really on-par with all the nb-javac features? My impression is that some things are just not the same (yet?). --emi On Mon, Mar 23, 2020 at 6:53 PM Geertjan Wielenga <geert...@apache.org> wrote: > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Overview%3A+nb-javac > > More info above. > > Gj > > On Mon, 23 Mar 2020 at 17:51, Geertjan Wielenga <geert...@apache.org> wrote: >> >> Indeed, a must have only if NetBeans is running on JDK 8.
