Correction: To Martin Matula: - In [Issue 49871] you wrote: ... I believe it is problem ide module, probably missing copy info in cvs/ide/launcher/upgrade/src/org/netbeans/upgrade/copy3.6 [copy4.0beta2] I meant the upgrade from 4.0beta1 to 4.0qbuild200410181322, not from 3.6. I believe that upgrade is supported only from 3.6 and then from Beta2 to any other milestone build (RCs and FCS). Beta2 should be upgrading only from 3.6. Yarda please verify. Upgrade also works only if you use default userdirs for your installations. We upgrade only from 3.6 and beta2 (as it was cobundled with jdk). All other settings are ignored. You can either copy the settings by hand or directly point the IDE to your userdir of choice by using --userdir parameter. |
To Martin Matula: - In [Issue 49813] you wrote: "IDE settings should be imported automatically when you start beta 2 for the first time (it asks you using a dialog)." This didn't work when I installed and started the last qbuild. I had to copy the following folders from the beta1-userdir by hand: - $nbuser\config\Editors - $nbuser\config\Favorites - $nbuser\config\Services - $nbuser\config\Toolbars - $nbuser\config\vcs - $nbuser\config\VCSMount - $nbuser\config\Windows2Local I also changed the name of the userdir to netbeans_default_userdir="${APPDATA}/netbeans/4.0dev" as explained in [Issue 49813]
