Consider building from a shorter path. Windows still suffers from a max path of 260 characters. I tell my students to never use the Documents folder because it already eats up path. I create a older off of the root of a drive and call it dev. There is a long path in Windows that NTFS supports of an amazing length of 65,535 but for some reason it is not the default. It can only be used on an app by app basis but that means you could create paths that some apps can't use so we get stuck at 260. Sigh.

Building NetBeans from a fresh git clone is OK. On a second time build (no clean just ant build) I get: BUILD FAILED C:\Users\falappa\Documents\gitrepos\netbeans\nbbuild\build.xml:660: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Users\falappa\Documents\gitrepos\netbeans\harness\libs.nbi.engine\build.xml:50: Error while expanding C:\Users\falappa\Documents\gitrepos\netbeans\harness\libs.nbi.engine\external\nbi.engine-external-binaries-11.zip java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: C:\Users\falappa\Documents\gitrepos\netbeans\nbi\engine\native\cleaner\windows\dist\cleaner.exe at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.translateToIOException(WindowsException.java:83) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.rethrowAsIOException(WindowsException.java:97) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.rethrowAsIOException(WindowsException.java:102) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsFileSystemProvider.newByteChannel(WindowsFileSystemProvider.java:230) at java.nio.file.spi.FileSystemProvider.newOutputStream(FileSystemProvider.java:434) at java.nio.file.Files.newOutputStream(Files.java:216) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Expand.extractFile(Expand.java:361) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Expand.expandFile(Expand.java:199) at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Expand.execute(Expand.java:157) ... It seems that the mentioned nbi.engine-external-binaries-11.zip contains the cleaner.exe file with system and hidden attributes set, those prevents overwriting on the second build. To work around it I have to manually remove the cleaner.exe file with del /ash cleaner.exe. Are those attributes really needed? Would it be possible to have them removed from the file in the zip archive? Am I building something wrong?
