NetBeans IDE is een in Java geschreven ontwikkelomgeving bedoeld om programma's te schrijven, compileren, debuggen en implementeren. Het biedt ondersteuning voor verschillende programmeertalen, zoals Java, C++ en PHP. Sinds eind 2016 valt het onder het beheer van de Apache Software Foundation nadat Oracle besloot het van de hand te doen, die het op zijn beurt weer verkregen had met de overname van Sun Microsystems. Versie 11.0 is vrijgegeven waar ondersteuning van JDK 12.0, Java EE en Gradle de focus hebben gekregen. De bijbehorende, beknopte aankondiging ziet er als volgt uit:
Apache NetBeans (incubating) 11.0 Features
Apache NetBeans (incubating) 11.0 is the third major release of the Apache NetBeans IDE. It was released in March, 2019. Click here to download this release. Laszlo Kishalmi has been our Release Manager.
Maven First in New Project Wizard
There’s been lots of discussion in the Apache NetBeans Community about how best to express the fact that Apache Maven and Gradle are more modern choices to be aware of than Apache Ant, while at the same time not implying that there’s anything wrong with using Apache Ant.
Discussions started back in 2018, and culminated in 2019 with the new "New Project" wizard redesign.
We have moved the previous wizard Java options to a subfolder named "Java with Ant", and added two new options: "Java with Maven" and "Java with Gradle". We hope this makes it easier for everybody to choose a build system of their liking (be it Maven, Gradle or Ant) for their projects.
For more information about the discussion and the rationale behind these choices please see this blog post.
JDK 12 supportJava EE support
- nb-javac upgrade - As you may know, the Apache NetBeans IDE can use a special variation of a Java compiler called nb-javac, that greatly improves the Java support. This nb-javac tool (which is not an Apache Project as it’s released under the GPL license) has been improved to support advanced JDK 12 features.
Apache NetBeans Team Members Arunava Sinha, Sarvesh Kesharwani, and Vikas Kumar Prabhakar have made a heroic effort to integrate Apache NetBeans with this latest release of nb-javac.- Switch improvements - The switch expression handling has been greatly improved in this release. Better formatting, better re-indentation, better syntax-highlighting, better hints and better auto-completion.
- Autocompletion - You can now autocomplete enum values in switch statements.
- JEP-325: Switch Expressions (Preview) - We now have JEP-325 support. In order to enable JEP-325 (and other preview features) follow these instructions:
- Goto Project > Properties
- Goto Build > Compiling pane and add --enable-preview in "Additional Compiler Options".
- Goto Run pane and add --enable-preview in VM Options
- Converting switch-cases to rule kind cases - There’s a new hint to convert switch-cases to rule kind classes.
- And more - See our wiki for more improvements to the switch expression.
We have been busy in the last months reviewing the licenses of the enterprise cluster, that was included in the second donation from Oracle. The review has now ended (after lots of pull requests) and we have included this cluster in Apache NetBeans 11.0. This means that you can now build JavaEE applications with Ant, Maven or Gradle projects.
Gradle Support
In late December, 2018, Apache NetBeans Team Member Laszlo Kishalmi kindly donated his Gradle works to Apache NetBeans. Since then he has been steadily working very hard to solve many issues and doing improvements.
As a result you can now:Other enhancements
- Open Gradle projects out of the box.
- Gradle Task Navigator, run tasks by double-click.
- Gradle supported unit test frameworks (JUnit 4, 5, TestNG) works with Code Coverage with JaCoCo.
- Gradle projects work together with NetBeans JPA and Spring Support.
- Customizable task execution and IDE action binding.
- Run, Debug and Test even single methods.
- Creating new projects with Gradle.
Eirik Bakke has added support for HiDPI icons for window system icons on Windows and Mac. This introduces vector-drawn icon implementations for the icons used in the window system’s Windows 8 and Aqua LAFs.
Also, for this release the Apache NetBeans Team has been busy fixing 99 issues.
