Description javydreamercsw 2011-10-12 18:20:14 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201110110600)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.0-b17

I imported a 7.0.1 settings to include a platform definition I have. I was surprised to see that it was imported (not a surprise) but when I try to compile the IDE says it is not found.

Comment 3 javydreamercsw 2011-10-12 18:24:52 UTC 
I thought I would be able to recreate the platform definition and everything would be fine but it doesn't. I guess something got broken on this build.
Comment 4 javydreamercsw 2011-10-12 18:46:52 UTC 
Actually it turned to be a weird issue. The error was when trying to compile the module on its own. But if I compiled its suite and then tried the module it worked.

I'll see if I can get a repeatable test case.
Comment 5 javydreamercsw 2011-10-12 18:48:32 UTC 
I'm unable to reproduce. Any hints for me to get a test case?
Comment 6 mienamoo 2011-10-13 05:54:48 UTC 
I have seen issues like this spontaneously being fixed when the IDE is restarted.

Afraid not. If it happens again you can debug the Ant scripts (see context menu of build.xml), or simply check $userdir/build.properties to make sure the requested platform is really defined.
