This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
On sparc-solaris add sunstudio_path/bin to the PATH variable. Open IDE with fresh userdir. There are two collections(SunStudio_12 and SunStudio) in Tools/Options/C/C++ with the same base directory(sunstudio_path/bin), compilers and make command. Both of them of SunStudio_12 family.
It's not a bug. If no SunStudio collection is found on the system, it 'links' the best SunStudio collection found (SunStudio_12 in your case) to a 'generic' SunStudio collection, The reason is to make sure there is always a 'generic' SunStudio collection available if you prefer to not code to a specific release. The generated options are slightly different.
