[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-181) NetBeans should be aware of WSL (Ubuntu on Windows 10)

Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-181:
-----------------------------------------

I think it should be easy, because the code already looks for bash or bash.exe insight the code of the dlight.terminal module. The bash.exe for ubuntu on windows is located here: C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe so I played a bit around, but no effect atm.

It should not use the bash by default, it should have the option to choose, if you open a new terminal. Like Cygwin or Bash, depends on what is installed.

> Yeah Ubuntu on Windows is, I think still in beta but I use it for my daily work. At home and at work. It is really handy to setup enviroment stuff easily. So for this, NetBeans should be aware of installed stuff inside the ubuntu on windows. The path is "C:\Users\Chrizzly\AppData\Local\lxss (hidden folder)". So if NetBeans are aware of a cygwin installation, it should be treated like that too.
> And for everything else like I installed node, c/c++ stuff, php and so on.
> Would be great enhancement. I created such ticket for Terminal integration too, because of the Cygwin thing: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267478
