You know, just recently I noticed the .external protocol in the module system and now I see it is being used on the JavaFX modules to download from Maven Central the GPL JARs which NetBeans can't included under Apache: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/917/files
So this 3rd party libraries update center is actually a "loopback interface" pointing to those 3 JavaFX "partial" NBMs which we embed. How neat. On my system it seems the IDE blocks on 'Finding Feature' step so I would prefer to recompile and include these modules entirely. Any simple way to do this? Also, Third Party Libraries is basically "JavaFX Libraries" right now, correct? --emi On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 3:45 PM Emilian Bold <[email protected]> wrote: > > But any reason this can't be a proper URL? > > --emi > > On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 3:43 PM Neil C Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > On Fri, 12 Jul 2019 at 13:38, Emilian Bold <[email protected]> wrote: > > > The URLs for the other update centers are normal URLs that an user can > > > download and look what the XML contains. > > > > > > The "Third Party Libraries" update center seems more special as it has > > > the URL > > > nbresloc:/org/netbeans/modules/updatecenters/resources/3rdparty-catalog.xml > > > .
