Re: [D] Multiple instances [netbeans]

GitHub user rma-sjn added a comment to the discussion: Multiple instances

I solved this problem recently by writing a C/C++ program the executes my netbeans application. First it looks in the .conf file for the userdir parameter, then it looks to see if there is a lock file in the userdir folder.  The lock file signifies an instance of NB platform running.  If there is a lock file then it executes netbeans with the --userdir directory and passing a new "temporary" folder to use, othwerise I execute without the --userdir.  Don't know if that is the best solution, but it doesn't involve users editing conf files or passing in parameters and seems pretty automated.
