Hi, Not sure if this is the correct place, but I’m having an error trying to compile the VisualVM source code inside of NetBeans 12.4.
The project itself is a Netbeans platform application and it builds just fine from the command line outside of NetBeans. But, I would like to compile it inside of Netbeans and run it so I can learn how it works by using the debugger, build plugins, etc. There seems to be an issue with Ant or some difference between compiling on the raw command line vs using NetBeans “Clean and Build” option. I can’t figure it out, the build is failing saying there is a missing class, however, inside of Netbeans the source file has the correct import and it sees it just fine. I’m building the project with JDK8 and followed the instructions at: https://github.com/oracle/visualvm <https://github.com/oracle/visualvm> I posted here because the error only happens when compiling inside of NB 12.4..and I couldn’t find any ANT settings that might be causing the issue. As far as I can tell the build is running the JDK8 I specified and just doing a “clean build” which I can successfully do from the raw command line with no errors. Error that I’m getting ------------------------------- /Users/tmulle/junk/visualvm/visualvm/uisupport/src/org/graalvm/visualvm/uisupport/ProfilerTabbedPane.java:52: error: package sun.swing does not exist import sun.swing.SwingUtilities2; 1 error /Users/tmulle/junk/visualvm/visualvm/netbeans/harness/suite.xml:163: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/tmulle/junk/visualvm/visualvm/netbeans/harness/common.xml:207: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details. Any Ideas? Thanks, - Tim
