RE: NetBeans splash screen discussion on Twitter

Seems like a good candidate, only one I have seen recently. Colors look a tad bit loud, but then it is supposed to be a "Splash" screen isn't it? Not at all a criticism: that would be when it is boring and flat colored. -Original Message- From: Geertjan Wielenga

I remember Netbeans used to produce file dumps for parsing errors and ask users to attach them to bug reports... What happened to that? Having run into many such bugs in the past I usually can't share the full project because of its commercial nature, or I can't remember what I did to

Could this be a case of someone importing java.sql.Date by accident when only java.util.Date is needed? In JDK8 this would not cause an immediate problem, but JDK9 might have moved the java.sql.* classes to a separate now-inaccessible module. On 3/28/18, 10:06 AM, "Antonio"

Yes, good point, I will try to gather more information and add it to the JIRAs as each of these bugs reappear. Each of these bugs are intermittent, so I'm not quite sure how to reproduce them yet. For a start, I added some sample class files to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-430 ,

Mmmm java.sql.Date? That's weird. AFAIK JIRA uses a JSON REST API, so no sql is involved (I think). I wrote some instructions at [1] for setting up the JIRA plugin, but it threw some NullPointerExceptions while running... :-( [1]

Thank You, Geertjan! BTW, when trying to add Apache NetBeans Jira to Services/Task Repositories, I get an exception ("java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.sql.Date"). Probably a JDK 9 issue. Kind regards Peter Am 28.03.2018 um 13:18 schrieb Geertjan Wielenga:

Hi Eirik, Thanks for reporting the bugs. One thing I'd like to point out is that while it is sometimes possible for someone working on the code to fix a bug based just on a stacktrace, having a way to reproduce a problem usually leads to much faster and efficient fix. This is particularly true

Hello, trying to submit an exception report leads me to http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/detail.do?id=232241 As I'd expect JIRA on Apache web site should be used (and NetBeans BugZilla seems to be empty now), I'd see this as a broken (important) feature. My original problem is a

I’m also for it, to sync Github with Jira, atm the bug section at Github for incubator-netbeans is hidden. I think there was a reason for that, but this is not that good, because as often as I said, not everyone is using JIRA and will use it. They see github and will try to add a ticket and

Hi Gili, I think you’ll find most people would rather fix issues and improve NetBeans than respond to these kinds of e-mails — and all this investigation you’ve done and so on: maybe it is better spent on investigating or highlighting some specific issues? Would you prefer I spend time responding
