About using build.properties and nbjdk.home
There's a thread from last year,
https://lists.apache.org/thread/4qvk880rkn4norzk7t9tt92ppmnf48kp, where
it was not sufficient to set nbjdk.home, JAVA_HOME also had to be set.
I was using nbbuild/user.build.properties, not ~/.nbbuild.properties;
don't know if that makes a difference.

Hi Brad,

I can't figure out what options to use so that doing a build with Ant
compiles with a different compiler. I've looked all over the web page and
can't seem to find it there.
So 2 questions:
1 - Does compiling Netbeans out of the box continue to Java 8 as the
compiler?
You'll need JDK 11. Most modules still build for 8, but they use the
javac release flag to do that. I don't remember when that change was
made, but it was some time ago.
2 - What option would I pass to Ant in order for it to use a different
compiler?
Creating a file ".nbbuild.properties" in your home directory with the
contents:
nbjdk.home=<PATH_TO_YOUR_JDK>
should do it.
Or you ensure, that that file das not exists/the property is not set
and put your target JDK as first element onto $PATH and set $JAVA_HOME
accordingly.
