Jacques,
I have been using NetBeans 5.0 for 6 months and I do agree that it is a far
superior Java/BSH editing and debugging tool. The only thing NB5 lacks is
FTL capability. I use Eclipse for that which gives me a chance to constantly
compare the two.
I think the only reason NB5 is not more popular with OFBiz is the lack of
its project files in the project. I personally think they should be made
part of ofbiz. The NetBeans project files in the Wiki are a bit dated, I
will update them probably today.
1. Start ofbiz without building - it is in the new project files.
2. Beanshell - get the plugin from location in wiki.
3. If you haven't discovered NB5's auto-coding features, just press
alt-enter on any line with errors. It will give you options and will do the
selected ones for you. It will do casts and imports almost all the time.
4. If you use LCD screen and spend long hours in front of it (like me) you
may want sub-pixel font smoothing by running NB5 on JDK1.6 and ofbiz on
JDK1.4. The new project files will let you do that.
5. There are many good NB5 plugins, I will note some of them in the wiki.
6. Default start-up settings for NB5 are not right for a project like ofbiz.
You need to significantly raise the memory settings. Checkout
http://performance.netbeans.org/ .
7. You can reduce the footprint of NB5 by turning off some of the built-in
server/database stuff.
Regards,
Vinay

So thanks to Vinay, I add update your svn comment with your last message. It
seems to work, I just installed, I try my new debug toy before updating...
