Pete Whelpton commented on NETBEANS-1849:
-----------------------------------------
Had a look at the code. For a plugin to get the green Active checkmark, all of
its constituent components and dependencies must also be active.
The reason Groovy doesn't get the green Active checkmark is because it depends
on the Java SE module, and Java SE contains the Java Shell component, and
unless one is running NB on JDK9+, Java Shell can't be enabled.
Hence Java SE doesn't show as enabled, hence Groovy doesn't show as enabled.
Not sure if this would be considered a bug or working as intended?
There's a similar thing with PHP. It depends on HTML5, so unless all HTML5
components are enabled, PHP won't show as enabled either.
There perhaps needs to be a 'partially enabled' status?
