Description _ gtzabari 2003-12-04 14:18:58 UTC
Since Netbeans now requires JDK 1.4 in order to
run it makes sense to enable JDK 1.4 support by
default and enable "asserts" in the compiler,
executer and debugger by default.

I think it's about this we do something about these issues eh?

Another thing I wanted to bring up: Why do we have "Enable JDK 1.4
source" both in the JAVA SOURCES node as well as the DEFAULT COMPILER
node? If you enable one, you should enable the other as well so you
might as well merge the two properties into one.

I've increased the proprity to P2 because this issue is quick/easy to
solve as well there have been multiple requests for it. Please respond :)

The ENABLE JDK 1.4 SOURCE issue has already been reported as #37425.
Please fix that one as well.

Nothing to do with the execution engine. This is a Java-specific issue.
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2004-04-20 17:49:59 UTC
Which is fixed in NB 4.0; there is a completely different UI for this
sort of thing, and I think it behaves according to the intent you
expressed in this issue.
