> Key: NETBEANS-70
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-70
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Matthias Bläsing
> Assignee: Matthias Bläsing
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 9.0
>
>
> The mysql driver bundled with netbeans is licensed GPL and thus can't be
> distributed together with apache netbeans.
> The situation is similar to the oracle db drivers, for which driver
> templates, but no binaries are provided.
> It should be checked if a "on-demand download" option can be provided to make
> this easier for the end-user.
