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.
There are several issues that should be fixed: 1. on Linux experiments should be stored in /tmp instead of /var/tmp (request from soldatov@netbeans.org) 2. when external terminal is used it's title should not contain 'collect' in it 3. experiment directories are not deleted on crash ... 4. (relates to 3.) if there are problems with preparing a directory for an experiment, dlight should create another one instead of failing 5. "ER_PRINT SAYS" should be removed from logs 6. "Creating experiment... " as well as other collect/er_print - related messages should be hidden from user (perhaps, controlled with some flag... ) 7. (?) Should it act specifically on 'unsupported' platforms (when collect complains about it)? Should we ever use collect on such platforms?
5) fixed with http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/918520d3ef45

Agree with 2-5 I don't agree with 1) Let's use System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"), because on my Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 x64) /tmp is mapped to memory as on Solaris
2) fixed with http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/ba25d2a9e85c
Item 6. With fix http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/83dec29be72e I just disregard any output from collect (with -O /dev/null)
