Bug 202655

Summary: not all JavaSE plugins activated after manual JavaFX2 activation
Product: javafx Reporter: Stepan Zebra <stezeb>
Component: PlatformAssignee: Tomas Zezula <tzezula>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE    
Severity: normal CC: mmirilovic, mr_lou_d
Priority: P4 Keywords: ERGONOMICS
Version: 7.1   
Hardware: All   
OS: All   
Issue Type: DEFECT Exception Reporter:

Description Stepan Zebra 2011-09-26 09:09:23 UTC
Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.1 Beta (Build 201109252201)
Java: 1.7.0; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 21.0-b17
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_US (nb)

Use case:
Start fresh IDE.
Invoke the Plugins manager.
Search for JavaFX 2 Support plugin.
Check it and press Activate.
List of required Plugins will be shown.
Complete the activation.

After activating JavaFX2 this way, Hibernate and Spring Beans from JavaSE pack remain deactivated, which is inconsistent with situation, when FX is activated during project creation (complete set of JavaSE plugins activated).

I suggest to adjust the behavior to activate the complete JavaSE pack even in this scenario, to prevent any issues with inconsistency.

possibly related problem:

"when using the "All" NB version the JavaFX is activated only when you try to create new JavaFX project and not if you try to directly go to Java Platforms. "

Hibernate and Spring Beans are still remaining deactivated in described use case, however there doesn't seems to be any consequence from this situation.
Comment 4 Lou Dasaro 2013-08-03 03:14:12 UTC
Can this be closed as a result of newer versions (7.4) of Netbeans that install with JavaFX Support already (pre-)activated?

I'll answer my own question! As Petr pointed out, JavaFX support isn't pre-activated in the "All" distribution. Therefore, the issue remains...

This appears to be the cause of Issue 239895
Comment 7 Lou Dasaro 2014-02-25 17:55:57 UTC
I'm not sure they have the same root cause, perhaps similar. This is actually a different problem from 2011, where activating the main JavaFX 2 plugin in Tools->Plugins->Installed (non-details) needed to more fully activate Java SE. It was a duplicate of Bug 202164, which has since been FIXED. 
Returning to DUPLICATE status to avoid confusion with Bug 239835 
If I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me.
