Hi Rafael,
Thanks for your work on this, and sorry for the slow response.
I'm not normally a NetBeans user (or IDE user), so this has been educational.
I set up OpenBSD Ports and checked out that github repo into it, and
made the /etc/mk.conf config change suggested by the README.md for
openbsd-wip. Java took a good while to build, chewing on a source
file someone mentioned in this thread. I uninstalled the other
NetBeans then pkg_add'd
/usr/ports/packages/amd64/all/netbeans-8.1.tgz.
I'm now unable to create a project in NetBeans. Picking New Project
-> Java -> Next, I get this screen ("Finding Feature" with the Next
button greyed out), and it sits for at least hours for me.
I'm sure that has a lot more to do with my system and NetBeans 8.1
than it does with the patch for the garbage output issue, but my first
attempt at testing that patch has been frustrated.
Blowing away the NetBeans directories in my homedir didn't help.
I'll try to Google this problem and fix it and get further and report.
Thanks again,
-scott
