Does not consider it P2. Know that it's annoying for you, but this issue isn't priority in future release. |
I am working on a NetBeans platform application, and several of our Mac users report that the installer neither places a shortcut on the desktop or an item in the mac dock. I investigated that and found the following comment for the desktop item (for which there is a check box): LogManager.log( "... skipping this step as we're on Mac OS"); // NOI18N And an XmlException of sorts gets thrown when trying to modify the doc xml. Please get this fixed soon!
