> The change to the module list, adding an incubation module, looks like a bad idea to me. It will break once `jdk.vector` graduates as the incubation module can then not be resolved and the launcher will not start. if the module isn't there (e.g on JDK 17 or at some point in future), it would just print a warning. Lets say vector api goes final in JDK 25, all we have to do is to switch from the preview module to the final module for NB 2x. We can't really give forward compatibility promises for NB - it is on a best effort basis. So lets say JDK 25 changes the vector api while making it final and lucene is unlucky and the binding breaks, all the user would have to do to continue running NB 23 (which is EOL at this point) on JDK 25 is to remove that flag from netbeans.conf. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
