If somebody downloads to ~/Downloads and starts the app from there the
userdir on macOS will be in ~/Library/Application Support/ so there's
no relative path between them and the paths are stored as absolute
("abs" identification).
I suspect the saving netbeans.home in lastModified/all-checksum.txt
fixes the problem since it will invalidate the cache:
diff --git a/platform/o.n.bootstrap/src/org/netbeans/Stamps.java
b/platform/o.n.bootstrap/src/org/netbeans/Stamps.java
index e41c90897..7231bd827 100644
--- a/platform/o.n.bootstrap/src/org/netbeans/Stamps.java
+++ b/platform/o.n.bootstrap/src/org/netbeans/Stamps.java
@@ -313,6 +313,7 @@ public final class Stamps {
String[] relativeDirs = Clusters.relativeDirsWithHome();
String home = System.getProperty ("netbeans.home"); // NOI18N
if (home != null) {
+ sb.append("home=").append(home).append("\n");
long stamp = stampForCluster (new File (home), result,
newestFile, processedDirs, checkStampFile, true, null);
sb.append(relativeDirs[0]).append('=').append(stamp).append('\n');
}
Does this make sense? I wonder why I can't reproduce it with 8.2?
