Thanks Juan. I did have it installed. I use maven projects and haven’t been on ant for some time.
I did uninstall nb-javac as it doesn’t allow newer language features. For example if you run with jdk14 you get record support which is a preview feature in jdk14 (hope it sticks btw). > On 6 May 2020, at 15:37, Juan Algaba <jalg...@colef.mx> wrote: > > My memory failed me, it's not a dialog, but a notification: > https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r3743d8d20e8760be2c91da7c236382a63d60358aca4415ba5743b7a3%40%3Cusers.netbeans.apache.org%3E > > I believe it's not installed by default because it wasn't donated (and > won't be apparently) to Apache, and also because some users report > issues caused by it when not running > on JDK 8: > https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r3743d8d20e8760be2c91da7c236382a63d60358aca4415ba5743b7a3%40%3Cusers.netbeans.apache.org%3E > > Here's an overview of nb-javac > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Overview%3A+nb-javac > > What I gather from the mailing list is that Netbeans is clearly moving > away from nb-javac.
