With release 15 I did something like
mkdir 15
cp -a 14/userdir 15/userdir
Then start NetBeans-15 using 15/userdir and a fresh cachedir.
Simpler than import settings. Is there any problem/downside doing this?
the downside is that NB doesn't expect this to happen. So it might work,
or it might break (something). Since the config format might have
changed somewhere in between versions.
If you would just start NB 15 normally without a 15 folder, it will ask
you to migrate some of the config of 14.
It will import settings like project groups, platforms, editor config
(even custom jackpot rules now), theme etc. but window setup for example
is reset. Thats usually how I upgrade - setting up the windows again is
only a few clicks, most of the rest is already migrated.
I actually wanted to take a look if it would be feasible to migrate some
of the window setup too, have that somewhere on my TODO list, but never
looked into it.
