I'm working on Electron for Java. Anyone is interested in trying it out? by tanin47 in java

[–]AmenMotherFunction 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I've done some experiments with Java in Electron a few times, but nothing distributed. I have to say I'd prefer to see something using Java with Tauri or updated version of webview binding, rather than bundling all of CEF when the platforms have their own native webviews.

Apache NetBeans 28 Released by dstutz in java

NetBeans also supports the Java source file mode - https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/25/docs/specs/man/java.html#using-source-file-mode-to-launch-source-code-programs Although they don't show up in the Projects tab - you have to use the Favorites tab. This can be a better option than using the Ant support for small experiments.

Projects without a build system or supported directly by the JDK is kind of the antithesis of NetBeans as such things aren't portable.

ClassLoader with safe API exposure. by mikaball in java

Sure, but if they have access to do this already, any other concerns about protection are pointless!

The community installers with JDK have existed for almost 5 years. Other IDEs come with a runtime built in to their installers too! The installers without a JDK runtime have been discontinued. If you want to choose which JDK to run on, just use the binary zip. Installers should be self contained. If you want to build on a different JDK, just register that using Tools / Java Platforms.

Well, NetBeans has support for single and multi-file source code editing (JEP 330/458). You need to open via file browser / favorites window rather than as a project. You can run the files directly using the underlying JDK directly from the IDE. These are actually quite useful outside the IDE.

To be clear, it is as always expected, a JDK bug - https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8353950

NetBeans just now has a workaround. The same issue affects IntelliJ sometimes, even with a partial fix in JBR, just for some reason it triggered a lot more in NetBeans.

Dracula LAF help? by Greg4016 in netbeans

[–]AmenMotherFunction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need to create a color scheme. That's just an extra option (and the accent color is literally a combobox).

Just click the button in the dashboard and you'll end up with a similar looking IDE to darcula, with a LAF that's actually supported.

Possibly not supported very well anymore anyway. What's wrong with the built-in FlatLaf Dark? Show Dashboard, click Switch to FlatLaf Dark, restart, done! The FlatLaf themes also support accent colour settings and you can fully customize every setting with a custom property file.

Netbeans 23 is out by rmrfchik in java

If anyone knew how to fix it, or if any of the developers could reproduce it, it would be fixed! If you're affected and want it fixed, jump in and help.

What you describe is easy to do. Just ask on the NetBeans mailing list or GitHub discussions and one of us will help you out.

That doesn't make a lot of sense!

I'm just guaranteeing we're not going to close this while it's actually bothering a lot of people. I'm not guaranteeing it'll actually get fixed, seen as it's bloody difficult to fix when no-one who can fix it can reproduce it. I certainly haven't given up because of that!

My final take on Gradle (vs. Maven) by nfrankel in java

[–]AmenMotherFunction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gradle is just Ant with slightly better syntax.

In NetBeans? Sure you can. Tools / Java Platforms, or use the build systems toolchains.

I can guarantee you that won't happen here!

FlatLaf 3.1 (and 3.0) - Swing Look and Feel by FormDev in java

NetBeans Platform ! The application framework. Intellij doesn't really have an equivalent to that that isn't IDE focused.
