programming in Java with netbeans

(1/7) > >>

Joop:
I have some sources for Java programs which where developed in netbeans. I want to install netbeans, but what version (of course one for Java 6)? Are there different versions for OpenJDK and Sun's Java? There are lot of sources  available from programs which don't want to run in our implementation of OpenJDK.

Dave Yeo:
Perhaps use Google to research what Linux or the BSDs use with our version of OpenJDK?

Martin Iturbide:
Hi

It will be interesting to try this and document which is the latest Netbeans that can run on OS/2-eCS with OpenJDK 6.

Here are the old Netbeans archive:
https://netbeans.org/community/releases/old.html

Version 6.9.1 says it requires Java 6. Since version 7 it requires Java 7, I guess Oracle tried to sync the release numbers with Java.

If you have any luck let us know and post the script.


Regards

On the old forum (2011) there was a comment by lpino :

--- Quote ---Is anyone trying to make Netbeans (v.6.9.1) work under OpenJava?. I had have some success and it starts and run, but it's very unstable and it crashes constantly.

Looking the thread there is no more details about it.

I downloaded 6.9.1, but according specs our implementation of OpenJDK is not up to it. Our version is too low. Nevertheless I wanted to try. All they can come up with is Windows, all kinds of flavors of Linux and the Mac. For the independent stuff go to the bin directory and launch program something.exe. I did that, but its a Windows program. That's it, they didn't even took the liberty to say how to proceed if that doesn't work. Going through the Linux sh file it seems not too difficult to do it without installer. Only its a puzzle and the sh is almost not readable. Independent seems for them so much as another distribution of Linux.
