Well...I use NetBeans 15 because it works. I have a customized platform and I don't have the time resources to rebuild it every time a new NB release comes out. When I use NB 20 with my customized platform (based on NB 15), my modules are littered with "cannot find symbol" errors for classes that are present; and I can't find a way to resolve these errors. I can debug and run the application from within NB 20, and things seem to work. But the app is mission critical to our company, so I can't risk deploying it and then have something fail because the unresolved IDE errors are actually indicative of some issue I don't understand.
As an example, see the screenshot below. The necessary module is there and added to the project, but NB 20 still thinks there is a problem. I cleaned caches and reloaded modules.

Why are you still using NetBeans 15? NetBeans 20 is the supported release. And as 18 & 19 enhanced the "Open in System" action to be available for all files you might find it useful to upgrade! https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fnetbeans%2Fpull%2F5770&data=05%7C02%7CJHuber%40stanref.com%7C8027d742e77047922a4a08dc12067924%7Cd40cfd3f9c3648f3a5f48e75dc69cdbc%7C0%7C0%7C638405066220441998%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=xVMLWoB5X3VlFgxZk8yTjUbP5AgINFDmfkL5WVDRWdk%3D&reserved=0<https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/5770> https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fnetbeans%2Fpull%2F6159&data=05%7C02%7CJHuber%40stanref.com%7C8027d742e77047922a4a08dc12067924%7Cd40cfd3f9c3648f3a5f48e75dc69cdbc%7C0%7C0%7C638405066220441998%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ZZoAK1jEvSE4KaQd%2ByoEpQUiQngAr5rmADphHT7bgXc%3D&reserved=0<https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/6159> Best wishes, Neil
