Yes. It uses the existing opened instance if it's running.

Hey, thanks Lazlo - will that use a currently running netbeans if it’s running?
If so, this is good enough for me! Sorry for the poor wording - when I said
“remote” I should have said “external” (like outside the netbeans process/jvm)
Thanks a bunch!

I do not know what and how the "remote" part would work, but you can do from
CLI:
netbeans --open file1[:line1]...

I don’t know. But when I say “API”, I mean it in a loose sense: eg in many OS
file types can associated with an application so that when you double-click on
it, that file is opened. In some cases without another instance of the
application getting started. The passing of the file name to the app is a kind
of API.

Greetings,
I must ask if there are other IDEs which do have such APIs enabled by default.
I wouldn't want something like that to be available (by default) on *any* IDE
that I use.

Hi,
This might be a dumb question: does Netbeans have an external API (e.g.
REST) that would allow a remote program to direct Netbeans to open a file
at a given line number? I have a program that does some analysis on
application source code and then needs to let the user edit some specific
source files using whatever their favorite IDE. If possible, I’d like to
avoid writing my app as a plugin for each IDE.
I’m not sure if this is actually the right mailing list to ask this
question. Feel free to point me to another if it’s not.
Thanks,
Tom
