Description _ gtzabari 2015-04-01 17:07:15 UTC

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201503300001)
Java: 1.8.0_40; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.40-b25
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_40-b25
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
User directory: C:\dev\Netbeans\user\dev
Cache directory: C:\dev\Netbeans\cache\dev

1. Install JDK9 EA b55
2. Tools -> Java Platforms -> Add Platform -> Java Standard Edition -> [JDK9 Installation path]
3. Platform Sources gets set to: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.9.0\src.zip!/
4. Platform Javadoc remains empty
5. Click "Finish"
6. Note that the Classes and Javadoc tabs are empty and the Sources tab contains src.zip

Expected behavior: Classes and Javadoc should be populated

I could observe similar behavior with NetBeans 8.0.2 and JDK 9 ea b55.

Comment 2 Tomas Zezula 2015-04-02 18:09:50 UTC

It's part of the JDK 9 support which is currently scheduled for NB 9.
You can use jdk9 branch on the jet-main repository which supports JDK 9.
