we don't support import settings from unofficial releases, only official (meaning final) releases like "3.4", "3.4.1" are supported Originally was Summary: "Import Settings Wizard does not support upgrade from 3.5 beta to 3.5 rc1" I've changed it to better reflect what is the agreed behavior and current NB policy. Installer should offer settings import only from previous full versions. Hmmm that's strange if Installer offer import from this Beta too. IMHO it's not very nice to our users who decided to involve in netbeans Beta testing and migrated from their previous version to NB3.5 Beta. And now they wish to continue using NB3.5beta settings. Because if not, their current settings will get lost. Ok, I'll fix it as part of issue 32768 . In fact it is an extension of that and it is already mentioned that beta and rc shouldn't be detected. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 32768 *** Original issue was fixed. And I tested Richar's own-provided installer builds and they seem to me fine. |
