Suggestions for NetBeans IDE


Hello.
I'm using NetBeans 8.2 and I have some suggestions about it.


1) Old option menu & IDE information
In Tools->Options menu, it supports configurations about PHP 5.6 and C++98/11/14.

The problem is they are not latest version. Of course users can make PHP 7.0 files but final version is 7.2, and Command Line option is still PHP 5. Also, in Options->C/C++->Other menu, 'Default Standard' options don't support C++17.

I think this is because of slow update. NetBeans 8.2 came out in October 2016 and there wasn't any version update during the past year. Even the information of ‘NetBeans IDE Features - PHP Development’ webpage is described based on PHP 5.6.

Plus, I hope add Clang to basic C/C++ compiler of NetBeans IDE.(like Xcode)


2) Start Page
When I run NetBeans IDE, 'Start Page' is displayed with last project. I want an option to display Start Page(+Recent Projects) without opening last project files like Visual Studio.


3) Website/Forum Design
Design of NetBeans official website and forum is too old and texts are too small so it's a little hard to read. They need modern-style web design.


I’m very pleased with NetBeans, but I think it would be better if these improvements are made.
Thank you.

Hello and welcome to the Apache NetBeans community, :-)

When you have issues, this is where you file them:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues

Probably useful to watch this to understand what's been going on:

1) It just message from main page of https://netbeans.org (see attachment)

2) Can you describe 1 or 2 main problems with CLang on MacOSX? On 
Windows I know 3 different CLang compilers. Clang in Cygwin, CLang in 
MSYS and CLang+Microsoft Visual Studio. Which CLang you are using?

3) Theoretically You can use lldb-mi on MacOSX, but this case has to 
many limitations.

If you speak about options only this list box has been updated many time 
ago (http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/rev/7a24cb671166).

Which platform you are using? On MacOSX and FreeBSD CLang is default 
compiler in automatic tests in NetBeans IDE. Unfortunately you can't use 
LLDB debugger in NetBeans, and GDB can't debug CLang executables correctly.

Note that we will be discontinuing the web forums, i.e., 
forums.netbeans.org, and that in Apache there is no replacement for that 
— Apache projects work with mailing lists only. Also, the NetBeans.org 
website as a whole will move to Apache, while issues can already be 
filed at https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues, which 
is now the official place for filing Apache NetBeans issues.
