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.
1) Start NB on a machine with more than one compiler set (Solaris/Windows/...) 2) Go to Tools | Options | C++ | Build Tools and change default tool collection to a different set 3) Create a sample project. 4) Open properties and click on Build node: Tool Collection is not the default tool set. It is a regression. The default tool collection should be used as tool set in newly created projects *and* sample projects.
This requires teaching the Build Tools panel about development host and platform. Both were on my todo list but at a lesser priority.
Scenario to test: 1) Start IDE on platform with more than one compiler set 2) Pick one of the sets to be default (Tools|Options|C++) 3) Generate SubProject sample. 4) Check each of the 5 projects that Build|Tool Collection property is set to the default tool set 5) Build the project 6) Switch default set to a different set in Tools|Options|C++ 7) Repeat step 3) - 5) Note no remote settings are involved here. 8) Switch to a remote host and Repeat 1) - 7). It should also work in remote mode.
> 8) Switch to a remote host and Repeat 1) - 7). It should also work in remote mode. There is a bug in creating a remote developer host and you'll need to use a workaround to get this working with remote development. I've created IZ 141600.
