bitrunner opened a new pull request, #6859:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/6859

   This pull request adds support for working with [meson 
build](https://mesonbuild.com) projects.  Meson is cross platform build system 
used mostly for C/C++ but can build other things (D, rust, java, vala, etc).
   
   This feature allows netbeans to directly open existing meson build based 
projects as netbeans projects.  It provides a minimal configuration UI and 
compile, run, and test actions through the standard netbeans facilities.  It 
has syntax highlighting for meson.build and meson.options files.
   
   Here are some screenshots:

   It works and has been useful for me as is, but I'd like some feedback from 
the community on how best to integrate this into netbeans:
   
   - Is this quest worthwhile?
   - Does it make sense to add this to core or would it be better as a separate 
plugin?
   - If the feature is best in core, should it be part of CND or somewhere 
else? (Even though I put it in CND, it doesn't currently use any CND 
capabilities.  I would like to add debugging support which will probably use 
CND if I can manage to comprehend how to make that happen.  I would also like 
to add support for the remote development capabilities provided by CND.)
   - All constructive feedback is welcome.
