Description jmborer 2016-09-28 11:40:46 UTC 
It is not really a bug but an improvement request

You can define custom startup args for your netbeans app that you will handle by registering your own CLIHandler with the help of @ServiceProvider. But...

The startup module which contains the class declares friends and of course your module is not on the list. So you must cheat to make your module friend of the startup module

Why is CLIHandler not publicly available for other modules?
