When I run commit validation on my Mac, I get lots of failures, probably due to this error message: [junit] org.netbeans.modules.form - This module requires JDKHOME/lib/dt.jar to be accessible. [junit] This file was not found. Usually this means you are trying to run the IDE with the JRE instead of the full JDK. [junit] If so, please use the --jdkhome command line option to specify a JDK installation. [junit] For more information see http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqRunningOnJre There's no $JDKHOME/lib/dt.jar on OSX, but I -am- running with a JDK rather than a JRE. And the form module (gui builder) -does- work on the Mac with the same JDKHOME. On my Linux box, the commit validation test works without problems. This was brought up on nbdev: http://www.nabble.com/mac---commit-validation-failures-to18164965.html#a18200346 and Jesse said to file a P1 assigned to jtulach. I wasn't sure about the category so I'm trying testtools. If that's wrong, perhaps try reassigning to apisupport since Jesse speculated that this might be a NbModuleSuite issue.
Yes, this is a problem in NbModuleSuite. However, it is hard to fix for someone without a mac. I need layout of your JDK and its relative location to JRE.
