Because somes modules have been removed from the release 3.5, the issue wold be resolved as soon as possible. Otherwize, please re-add the removed modules ;-) . Vbb Vincent - I think you meant to look at issue #32771. Removed modules such as JNDI should be built in the daily alpha NBMs, but more relevantly for most users, particular versions known to work with 3.5 should be published on stable or perhaps beta update servers. That is a separate matter from this bug. Jesses, you are right and i am wrong. sorry See also issue #33097 - for now may be wiser to use a single big XML file, rather than XML entity includes, since Crimson seems unable to parse the entities correctly. Workaround for this bug is given in #33097. To sum up: 1. Restart with the option -J-Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl e.g. in your $nbhome/bin/ide.cfg. 2. Go to Tools -> Options and select Autoupdate Types. Expand the node. 3. Right-click it; select New -> NetBeans Update Center. 4. Name it e.g. Hack. 5. Click on the new Hack update type. Change Server URL to http://www.netbeans.org/updates/alpha/35_alpha_daily.xml or http://www.netbeans.org/updates/alpha/dev_alpha_daily.xml if you want to try dev updates (they may work in 3.5 too, and currently localizations are *only* here: see issue #27756). 6. Make sure Enabled is set to True on Hack, and to False on NetBeans Update Center Alpha. 7. Now try Auto Update. There will be some NumberFormatException's. Ignore them (issue #33095). You should now see the full list of daily alpha NBMs, except for a few localized NBMs (the NumberFormatException's) if you were using the dev version of alpha update center. I.e. as far as I can tell, a more or less correct version of the alpha update URL *is* being published: http://www.netbeans.org/updates/alpha/${v}_alpha_daily.xml (v = "35" or "dev") but the actual URL predefined in NetBeans is http://www.netbeans.org/updates/alpha/${v}_1.6_.xml which includes only a handful of "released" alpha modules and does not include the daily NBMs. Sorry, forgot that the localized NBMs are not downloadable even if you can parse them, due to issue #32437. So no advantage to using dev over 35 alpha update center at the moment; you cannot get any localized NBMs anyway. Back online. Due to issue 33097 the *Daily* Alpha Update Center has been discontinued in the form of external xml entity and though Alpha *Release* and *Daily* Update centres have been merged into one catalog and are served from one place. |
