Description Tomas Zezula 2015-11-25 13:51:43 UTC

The vanilla NetBeans bundled equinox does not work with Verona JDK 9.
In the java/jdk9 branch the problem is worked around by a binary patch to the bundled equinox but it should be resolved by an integration of a new equinox when available.
I've submitted the source path to eclipse issue: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=478175. When the issue will be resolve a new equinox HAS TO be integrated to the NetBeans, which may be non trivial task according to https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=240903#c7.

@Tomas: The eclipse issue has been solved. Now you can start with "new equinox HAS TO be integrated to the NetBeans"

Comment 2 Tomas Zezula 2016-03-08 18:41:17 UTC

The Equinox patch was already integrated, see:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=478175.
The netbinox should be updated by a new equinox version.

Current version with binary patch works fine from NetBeans 9. Since the integration of new equinox non trivial task, I am changing this issue from defect to task.
