Hello! I have a solution that works quite well in Netbeans 8.2. I believe that the question is whether or not this approach should still work with NetBeans 11.0. If it should, then I would like to find out why it isn’t working. If the approach described at http://wiki.netbeans.org/DevFaqOrphanedNetBeansOrgModules is no longer valid for NetBeans 11.0, then so be it, and I will move to a different approach.
In the bigger picture, it would probably be helpful for others in the community using the method in the aforementioned FAQ to know whether the method is still valid for 11.0. I don’t know if my platform patch is useful for others. There didn’t seem to be much interest when it was being discussed on forums.netbeans.org back in 2016. Thank You!

Patching the zip previously worked fine. Thank You!

But rather than patching via the ZIP, why not clone the GitHub repo and then provide a pull request there? What does your patch do?

I am in the initial phase of trying to patch a NetBeans 11.0 platform module (which I have successfully done in NetBeans 8.2) per the procedure at http://wiki.netbeans.org/DevFaqOrphanedNetBeansOrgModules. I downloaded the 11.0 source from the links at https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans/incubating-11.0/incubating-netbeans-11.0-source.zip The process is crashing at the “ant -f nbbuild/build.xml bootstrap” step with numerous errors regarding javax.help, such as: nb_all\nbbuild\antsrc\org\netbeans\nbbuild\CheckHelpSets.java:37: error: package javax.help does not exist In the netbeans 8.2 platform source, javahelp\external contains the following files: binaries-list, jhall-2.0_05.jar, jhall-2.0_05-license.txt In the netbeans 11.0 platform source, javahelp\external contains the following files: binaries-list, jhall-2.0_05-license.txt jhall-2.0_05.jar is missing in 11.0, which I believe is the source of the above error.

CA70822C47A67FC3A11670270567C2D01566DAE1 jhall-2.0_05.jar It seems that jhall-2.0_05.jar should be in the 11.0, javahelp\external folder (like it is in 8.2), but it is missing. Is this a bug? I searched through the 11.0 source, and I don’t find jhall-2.0_05.jar included. Thank You for any help!
