Hey Peter, yes you need to add the other JDKs to the Java Platforms from the Tools menu. Additionally, in the project properties ensure you have set the compile JDK, that is what Netbeans will use. The source binary should match especially if you want type inference to work. I have it running fine on my device right now. The in line warning is indicating you can change it to an explicit type.
@Dreamteam, does a feature exist so that be changed to a lightbulb instead of a warning or is it something I need to get onto the backlog? Thx Chris [cid:CFDFC8D1-5972-4840-9F96-91AE77AA29E4@cerner.com] On Jun 26, 2018, at 9:45 AM, Peter Hull <peterhul...@gmail.com<mailto:peterhul...@gmail.com>> wrote: I've downloaded and have been using RC1. Overall it's working very well for me. I have a quick question - is it possible to develop for a different JDK than the one that NetBeans itself is running on? NB is using JDK 1.8 but I have set up a "JDK 10" platform. I can select this and choose JDK10 as my source/binary format in a Java SE project, but I cannot use features like 'var' (red errors in the IDE). However I can clean and build using NB, then run the JAR from the command line and it's OK. Should I be able to use a different JDK than the NetBeans one?
