I was running the betas okay. I used the Linux installer this time. The betas run under JDK 8 The installer chose JDK9 Must be some weirdness there.
Meanwhile, (*non-sequitur*) running the installer-installed version under JDK 9 I also see this: WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.MainWindow (jar:file:/usr/local/netbeans-12.1/netbeans/platform/modules/org-netbeans-core-windows.jar!/) to field sun.awt.X11.XToolkit.awtAppClassName WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers of org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.MainWindow WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of further illegal reflective access operations WARNING: All illegal access operations will be denied in a future release --- Jack Woehr # Woehr's Asymptote: The ratio of the time spent Box 51, Golden CO 80402 # administering productivity software over the time http://www.softwoehr.com # saved by said software eventually approximates 1.
