I created JIRA issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-4367 for
this.

Subject: DEFAULT_CACHEDIR_ROOT not propagating to platform application
The following is done with NB Platform 11.3 and Java 11 on Kubuntu 20.04.
While I was about to use the cache dir logic provided by the platform I ran
into this problem.
My cache dir is in
${HOME}/.${APPNAME}/var/cache
and not as expected,
${HOME}/.cache/${APPNAME}
The app.conf contains
default_userdir="${DEFAULT_USERDIR_ROOT}/dev"
default_cachedir="${DEFAULT_CACHEDIR_ROOT}/dev"
Did some echoing in the bin/appname and DEFAULT_CACHEDIR_ROOT was set ok, but
not picked up by the application.
When specifying --cachedir it gets picked up by the application.
I created a simple testapp and this problem is there too.
So I guess the question is, Is this related to my doing or the platform?
