NetBeans build 201209110001 JDK 7u5 64-bit I just created a brand new Ant-based NetBeans Platform application based on the Development IDE platform. Much to my surprise this empty application failed to start up! The warning is: Warning - could not install some modules: Command-line Serviceability - The module named org.netbeans.modules.autoupdate.services was needed and not found. I had to manually resolve the dependency in the project properties. So there is a work around. But this will leave a really bad impression on a first time user of the platform, and I believe this is an important issue to fix.
This will cause a failure of the Run test at http://wiki.netbeans.org/TS_71_APISupport_Ant_ProjectOperations#Test_suite:_Operations_on_Module_Suites
We need to add the serviceability module to the list of excluded modules in NetBeans application template: ergonomics#dc4df91c5455
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201209210001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/dc4df91c5455 User: Jaroslav Tulach <jtulach@netbeans.org> Log: #218499: autoupdate.cli should be excluded by default from NetBeans Platform Applications
Verified with build 201209210001. Thanks!
