Freeze/Crash of NB 11.3 on Windows - anyone else?

2020-04-03 Thread Rob Walker
Been a 11.2 user for a while. Hard to isolate what I'm seeing down to be certain it is 11.3, but it started right after the upgrade, and only seems to happen when I am working with NB 11.3 What I get is not a Windows crash in the BSOD sense, but a complete and utter freeze of the system. Can't

Was going to ask the same Qs. Since moving to most recent NB 11.x and an up to date OpenJDK (8 or 13/14), high DPI usage seems to work fine without me doing any special tweaks that I can remember. In fact I flip-flop between 2 laptops, one with high DPI and one without, and I don't really make a

Agreed – also how I read it For any vendor working around Java, this doesn’t really change much. You cannot bundle in an app you charge for, or use as part of a service you charge for. At first, I though this might just be if you try to charge a fee for the JDK part itself. But the wording seem

If you start from a ZIP distribution, you can launch using any Java version with your own Java installs e.g. the BAT setup I use when on Windows: cd %NB_HOME%\bin start netbeans64.exe --jdkhome %JAVA_HOME% --userdir %NB_USER_DIR% --cachedir %NB_CACHE_DIR% --console suppress My various _HOME env

Ctrl-Z to undo #2 at this point, just to remove the spurious file modification marker OS here is Windows 11. It’ll be great if the patch gives us a less cumbersome approach, but at least the above does still seem to get around it. -Rob From: Rob Walker Sent: 21 March 2025 06:50 To: Eirik Bakke
