I used NetBeans for Java development on Windows and remember finding it in the Ubuntu Software Center on Natty, but now it's gone. Is there a PPA I can use or will it be re-added to the official repos?
NetBeans' Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is available in Ubuntu's Universe/Java section. Following are the steps to install from the repository: Scroll down for steps to install the latest version of the IDE.
After the download completes, run the installer script with .sh extension. You might need to make the installer files executable by using the following command: chmod +x (e.g. chmod +x netbeans-7.4-javaee-linux.sh)
Accept the default JDK installation to use with the NetBeans IDE or select a different installation from the drop-down list. If the installation wizard did not find a compatible JDK installation to use with the NetBeans IDE, your JDK is not installed in the default location. In this case, specify the path to an installed JDK and click Next, or cancel the current installation. After installing the required JDK version you can restart the installation.
Note: If you encounter problems successfully completing the software installation, see Troubleshooting for descriptions and suggested workarounds for unresolved issues that could affect the installation process.
Although it hasn't been updated since and feels very dated when compared to downloading and installing the current nightly or stable version. If it's a new installation of Ubuntu, the easier way to satisfy NetBeans' Java-dependencies would be getting the Java SE and NetBeans Cobundle.
I installed Netbeans on my Ubuntu 11.10 machine. I used the combined method, so Netbeans and JDK are installed from a single file. However, now that it's installed I can't figure out how to start Netbeans. If I try to reinstall it says that Netbeans is already installed, but if I look in /usr/share/netbeans there are the installation files but nothing else. How do I run Netbeans?
I am running a vsftpd FTP server on my Ubuntu server, but when I setup my Netbeans web project to upload files to it, it changes the owner and group to karel:karel, which is very bad, because the www-data user now cannot read the file and the webserver stops working.
Is there a setting to disable owner and group change on file upload? I need it to stay karel:www-data. I have read this question but all the answers, including using the local_umask setting, only talk about changing file privileges, my problem is changing it's group.
Other solution would be to allow everyone to read from the files, it is only a virtual machine that only I have access to anyway, but I would rather do it the proper way and not change file group after upload. For example, WinSCP doesn't change the file group on upload.
I have no experience with Netbeans. But if the screenshot in the answer to How to control the file permissions when the netbeans php plugin uploads a file with FTP is relevant, then I believe you need to check:
When the option is unchecked, a new file with the default ownership is created. While when it is checked, the existing file with existing ownership will be overwritten. What is an equivalent to WinSCP behavior.
How can i configure tomcat 7 to work with netbeans. Looking around various forums, it appears ubuntu has an unusual installation pattern, but i cant find a definitive answer as to how i can get it work with netbeans. Im attempting to add the server like this:
but as you can see, its not working properly. Ive installed the default tomcat7 from the repositories. Basically, what do i need to put as the values for catalina_home and catalina_base in order to get it to work?
Thanks to Fabio Colella, we now have NetBeans support in Ubuntu Make! Installing it is just a umake ide netbeans away and just relax while Ubuntu Make is doing the hard work so that you can enjoy this IDE.
Eldar Khayrullin (welcome to him for his first contribution!) updated the Unity 3D game engine support to point to the latest beta released version and Sebastian Schuberth fixed an android NDK environment variable to use a more widespread one.
Other noticeable changes, following upstream webstorm IDE, are update to get their latest available icons (thanks to our test granularity level, we were able to detect this small change!), fixes for the version option, global -r working as the new global --remove, some fixes for zsh users, and as well a bunch of new translations thanks to our awesome translator community (new languages: fa, pt_BR and updated de, en_AU, en_CA, en_GB, eu, hr, it, pl, ru, te, zh_CN, zh_HK). There is of course more refactoring and other tests changes. Full glory details are available here.
As usual, all of those modifications and new features are backed up via a number of small, medium and large tests! We are currently running about 850 tests in our jenkins infrastructure (running all the tests). All commits and pull requests are tested for pep8 and small tests using Travis CI and the health status is of course reported in the README.md file.
As usual, you can get this latest version direcly through its ppa for the 14.04 LTS, 15.05 and 15.10 ubuntu releases. Xenial version is available directly in the xenial ubuntu archive. Thanks again to all our awesome contributors community! A lot more is still in the pipe, but that will be for next release!
Our issue tracker is full of ideas and opportunities, and pull requests remain opened for any issues or suggestions! If you want to be the next featured contributor and want to give an hand, you can refer to this post with useful links!
The two big players in the free JAVA IDE field are NetBeans and Eclipse. jDeveloper is also out there but it seems that the former are both well used. I have been a big user of Eclipse but have recently started using NetBeans. I my opinion NetBeans has the edge of Eclipse on two areas that I have noticed. Firstly it comes with a GUI designer so no need to download additional plugins, the GUI designer is great in that it offers easy alignment of components added to form; secondly it provides JDBC or Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL drivers out-of-the-box and goes beyond that int hat a connect manager is provided to manage your SQL server.
You can download the latest version of NetBeans for you OS from NetBeans.org. For Ubuntu the shell script that was downloaded was netbeans-7.4-javase-linux.sh, the installer comes bundled with the Java SDK of your choice, I choose Java SE. This will download as a new file and will need to execute permission adding. Move to your downloads directory and add the execute bit
The installer will extract the files and start a GUI wizard for the install. This is simple and takes little time. Once installed you can access the NetBeans program from the Ubuntu Dash Home icon, just begin typing NetBeans to to start your search.
On starting NetBeans you can create a New Project from the men or button panel. Choosing a Java Application project will create the project, package and class file. So if we create anew project called JAVA. We will have the following structures created:
Once we have code on the class file we can compile and execute from the menu or using F6. If we have added additional class files and wish to run those class files then we can select the file and use SHIFT + F6 or right click on the file in the navigator and choose Run File.
Another big plus for me is the inclusion of the JDBC drivers. From the Services tab near the top left you can expand the Databases tab and see the registered drivers. You can also make connections to your own Database servers from here and crate databases and tables easily through the interface or SQL designer.
Hello all. i need guidance with updating a java program i wrote around 2010. i used netbeans 7.0 on windows xp pro. now i want to run it on ubuntu 22.04 LTS. i've installed ubuntu in dual-boot on a new windows 11 computer. how do i setup jdk and netbeans on ubuntu to refactor and recompile the program?
currently i have access to all of the source code and netbeans 7.xx on windows 10. but i want to switch to development in ubuntu.
alternatively, if easier, can i install jdk 7.xx and netbeans 7.xx on ubuntu 22.04 LTS?
